Some coaches, if your teams leak a couple of goals, they say "tighten up". Never Pagan's teams. That's why Pagan has the distinction of being the worst defensive coach of all time - couldn't defend a 70 odd point half time lead.
But he knew attack. If you got three goals down, ten goals down, whenever you were in trouble, his rule was simple - kick a goal.
I've seen Peter Bell stuff up a hundred times on the park. Every time (forgive my selective memory) he had the same response - he kicked a goal.
A true disciple of his coach. A genuine attacking mid. And a rare success story - an inside, very slow, attacking rover.
Fully the best of his kind for more than one of the many years he played.
And could play tight if asked. And would kick a goal if you were in strife, in any company.
Hasleby isn't fit to wash his car. Bell was never the problem.
