Benji fest, mostly opinion.
Benji spoke about the merits of Process, forgetting his appointment was the abandonment of it.
Benji spoke about loyalty, something him and Madge can discuss one day.
I would like to ask him where his loyalty was when he was alleged agent provocateur for the Players Revolutionary Army against the coach and why he refused the game day ball during his last game. Then he went out in the media and gave us a good slagging.
He spoke about the wonderment of fans but chose to ignore us during one of his testimonials.
Now it’s all happy families!
I enjoyed the bit about the selling off Hastings as “good thing” because Hastings allegedly wants to play 7. The truth is the insane love of Brooksy. It’s mentioned because most of us fans hate the decision with a passion.
Benji also spoke about his unique and forensic preparation. How he watched videos of other sides and worked out ways of beating them. Outstanding Benji!
Then some bizarre suggestion he will be around for 20 years. OMG.
If the interview is anything to go on, he might want to hit the books. Pascoe ran rings around him. And our gallant CEO, he’s up to his neck in all manner of club affairs
There was an allusion to “ robust discussion” I found interesting. I’m going to suggest this is truthful. Justin mentions it, I suspect, because he’s won these wars.
People who prattle on about themselves and how wondrous they are become inevitably tiresome and very boring. Benji needs to learn to drop this from his public persona.
The interesting things to me took up 3 minutes out of about half an hour.
Benji makes Pascoe seem like an intellectual giant. I conclude that Pascoe is going to own Benji in all aspects as Head Coach. Given that he signed off on Benjis sacking a few years ago, that makes sense too.
Anyone else feel the tension in amongst the back slapping?!
Justin is a desperate CEO, club is last, fans upset, whinging and unaccountable brains trust on the board -he has to eat what he can kill.
