However, note that
Maddison and Godfrey (and Aarons and McCallum) were purchases that we eventually flipped so that fits with what we’ve been doing (except these ones aren’t impressing). They shouldn’t be compared to true graduates of the academy.
There are also the other examples - Thompson, Morris, Butterfield, Canos - who we bought in and failed for us, although many of them doing well later.
