Addicknt - which opening comments do you refer to?
I've just listened to it again and his opening salvo is how he has spent 30 years in the industry, with immense experience in development, build and eventually production.
You say yourself that his style is a "dry". I would explain it by saying he's probably in the Marshall mould. Technically strong people who aren't marketers with bundles of charisma and gravitas. He's hardly a salesman, is he?
He then moves and makes a sensible observation that he doesn't know what the state of play will be in 5-7 years time in direct response to being asked the question. I'm not sure how anyone can put their eggs in one basket when we're looking so far ahead, and it's that being used to put Quady in his place.
As for the "next cab off the rank" comment, surely he just means it's the next project in the pipeline? Again, I didn't get any inference it was being sold.
