Benny Hunt is the least of our problems

1. Average to poor go forward from our pack
2. Poor discipline across the park
3. Zero energy and aggression
4. Change in Refereeing interpretation of various rules
5. Loss of Vaughan and Widdop for balance of season
6. A coach who continues to follow the same game plan despite the fact it has not worked for 10 +weeks
7. An administration that continues to foster and promote incompetence

Little wonder we fans are experiencing groundhog day

Hunt - He was on Ch9 need last night, he said he can’t put his finger on why his form has droppedthen reporter mentioned a stat of zero runs and nil metres and Hunt knew about it and needs to fix it? Hunt also mentioned the chance we may be bundled out of the 8 if we don’t improve. Overall I was not overly impressed by what I saw.

Yeah..looked like the fall guy..were was the Coach...oh that's right..He already told us he was a "Good coach"....

That's the difference between a proper coach and a rookie..

Bennett would never allow that to happen..he would divert the attention off the players and take the media spotlight off them...

Our "Coach" White-ants " everybody so that he doesn't have to take any responsibility.

eg Price/ J.D / T A/ etc

Great points. Simply adds to the reasons why he needs to go.

Serious question- what are the reasons to keep him? I'll start:
1. We should honour the contract
2. We save money- otherwise we would have to pay him out
3. He's a good bloke
4. He bleeds red and white
5. The players like him
6. We've saved on painting costs

I'm out.

Ben Hunt is a gun and got the Bronco's to the Grand Final playing well. Playing any finals footy is a pressure game and he handled it well unfortunately will only be remembered for dropping the ball in the GF. Just like Mundine in 99'. Had a magic finals series yet gets remembered for the dropped ball over the line which probably would have guaranteed the finals. Happens to the best of them.

Hunt has played well, his forwards are letting him down. He has been better than Widdop lately and does not throw these hospital passes so he does not get caught. He is not afraid to get tackled that is. Will be interesting to see how he goes without Widdop.

With Widdop out for a while lets see what transpires with him ....we are about to find out.....to be honest Im not especting anything special hope Im wrong...in fairness our forwards have not been setting the go forward platform that halves need to operate at their best....and our outside men like Lafai, Aitken Flo, McDonald etc are not exactely mouth watering prospects to capitalise on his cross field kicks or cut out passes are they.....still hes being paid the big dollars lets see if he can produce some magic this weekend.....otherwise Im expecting Farrah and Marshall to have a field day.....mmmm that in itself is a sad statement isnt it considering these 2 blokes are seen to be well past it

Agree slippery,
I can’t believe the crap he has copped. It’s as if the whole sorry saga is his fault alone. You don’t see the media blaming JT for where the cowboys are on the table.
