No, highly likely it's very average. But for what Declan trying to do over there, I'd say it ain't that important for now. Everything he does has a long term focus.
Where he's had a club board that sort of understands that (Wests) it's gone ok. Sounds like Torslanda's bosses are onboard with that as well, and I'm guessing they are hoping to be promoted up the divisions over time.
Where he's been at a club more focused on immediate results, like Melville or Waikato FC - it's just all blown up as a mess. And of course Edge being a blunt/difficult character doesn't help. He basically seems to need to have total control, and patient club supporters/backers to succeed.
Other important thing to consider with Torslanda, is it gives a base in Europe for all these Ole grads to start at in need, as they try to 'crack it' in Europe. For example Pijnaker started at Torslanda. Coming all the way from NZ and trying to get signed by a club somewhere on the old continent can be a very lonely tough road (read abit about Bill Tuiloma's journey as one example). But these Ole grads can land at Torslanda as a starting point, with a lot of support and guidance from likes of Edge and Dan Keat, before they head off to trial at different clubs over time etc.
Even those who got directly signed from NZ, like McCowatt, Wilkins, Just and Stamenic are all practically just a ferry ride away in Denmark - and it must be nice to know their long time mentor Declan is close at hand, for some career advice, etc in need.Garbett also in Sweden.
