Knights’ Recruitment Manager
- Thread starter Lefty
- Start date
I like that idea from a continuity point of view.

There was a list before the GF of the players and who scouted them. Alex was next to quite a few of them.

If there's something to be tossed, there is no greater tosser than Gus. He's also a climate change denierWe at least we can all be thankful Gus and Claude aren’t in charge of things here

Alex certainly has an eye for talent. My only reservation is whether he attributes the right value to that talent. Seems to be something POS excels at so the roster balances out.
Yeah, so those couple of years learning off POS should have taught him something. Otherwise, have some checks and balances in place or someone else run the cap itself.

As mentioned in another thread Anthony Field is the favourite according to the Telegraph. They're talking about it like it's already a done deal and could be announced as soon as tomorrow. Currently a player agent (in PNG right now representing Cooper Bai). His agency represents Fletcher Sharpe, Toby Winter and Chase Butler amongst a few other Knights juniors who've gone elsewhere.
I know nothing about him but I'll take the mystery box over Scott Fulton or the guy who has willingly given AJ Brimson multiple big contracts.

Mentioned elsewhere but he was previously head of recruitment & elite pathways at Parra from 2013-2020.
If you ever see one person doing both those jobs at a club, instead of it being treated as two jobs, this is a sure sign that club is a bit cheap.

Anthony Field hired as Knights' recruitment manager replacing O'Sullivan. Alex McKinnon promoted to pathways recruitment manager.

Very pleasing choice IMO. Hiring a guy who has a pre-existing good relationship with Fletcher Sharpe tells you the club isn't dumb enough to take his retention for granted.

Mckinnon does not compare to POS. He already appears to lack a clear understanding of the role and has already made decisions/signings that raise concerns about his judgement.
Such as?

The senior recruitment guy will have very little to do for 2027 - maybe 1 or 2 spots might open up.
McKinnion will have some work to do right now, putting together our Flegg and Ball and Mathews squads to start training shortly.
I was thinking yesterday that POS will surely be interested in Nonu - be signed Nonu's brother for the Dolphins, Mel Nonu for the Knights, and they are both Broncos juniors.
