I would take Bennett - 2 years...

He can take this team to a premiership, similar to Dragons in 2010, the team is primed and they just need someone to finish it off. The squad doesn't need to be touched

Bennett is certainly an improvement on Griffin, but im not convinced tbh - I think Wayne is past it now, it only would be a matter of time before Gus & Wayne come to blows and this circus starts all over again....

Bennett would help develop a lot of our players. 2 years under him certainly wouldn't hurt many (if any) of their careers.

Get him and bring Bryce back on minimum wage. See if Bennett can fix him like he did Boyd.





Hey that is not a silly idea at all.

I would (if club) insist that Bryce does ongoing counselling if he returns, there needs to be some limits and boundaries to this.

On Sunday night Matty Johns Alan Jones made a good point that we as a game recycle coaches too much and to give the new blokes like Ciraldo and Seibold a go.

He should definitely seek professional help. Maybe we should consider employing someone and make it mandatory for all younger players to sit with them once a month to keep ontop of things.

No, no, no, no, no. Do we want another Newcastle fiasco?

Absolutely. But I thought we had a sports psychologist on the payroll?

Bennett wont be able to bring players with him here. Or take them when he leaves. He gets 2 years with what we have.

Unlike other clubs who are desperate to get him. We wont give him or any other coach the power other teams do.

However Gus can use Bennett to lure guys here we may want. Gus and Bennett at the same club... with the resources we have. Players would be taking paycuts to come here

Good point.
