So what if it was all about the money? He needs to have enough put away so that when he's dead, his son can be looked after. I'd like to see any of us knock back a payday like this.
Yep it's a huge fear for parents with disabled kids, he can set his son up for life with this deal. People said that he'd go back to Brisbane to be with his family, well if you ask me he's taking the huge dollars in Newcastle for his kid.
What a load of crap. If you have a disabled kid, you need multi millions left to hem so they could survive? And if so, who manages the money for them?
Many people have disabled kids who are looked after regardless of what is left to them.
I am amazed that no one mentioned Bennett's denial of money being the motivating factor. "If it was about money I'd be staying here" he said of the Dragons. Unless Doust paid him $2 million per year (which he wasn't), then Bennet is full of sh*t.
Good luck to Newcastle (or Souths). Buit $2 million for a coach in charge of 25 players worth $4.5 million - you'd want to be undefeated.......
