At the risk of talking to my self on screen:
Stoner claims in the video he "sought" this role with CDC. He seems to be a natural fit for CDC based on his claimed bio. I wonder why the swap of directors though. That's not transparent.
Stoner obviously wants to be where the money is, and pure speculation here: he would have in his sights how CDC should move paddock wise. Thanks CDC (if any eyes here) for making the effort with this little intro video.
