I sort of agree with this. It's an easy narrative to blame us but is Brad Arthur a super coach? It was more probably that Papali'i (and so many others) cruise in their home town and around their mates if they're getting picked, then move and have to bar up in a new environment.
There's definitely an element of this, but Arthur really seems to have tapped in to Papali'i to get the best out of him. Not saying he's a super coach. I'd suppose every decent coach has a few of these relationships in him. The best have more.
