Has Bennett gone senile???

[Hurriflatch]

Brisbane coach Wayne Bennett said last night he wished he could forfeit next week's potential minor premiership decider against Parramatta, while Sydney Roosters insisted they could beat whoever finishes first if given a chance the following weekend.

"If you were allowed to forfeit the game, I would," said Bennett of the Parramatta Stadium clash next Friday. We just keep getting injuries on injuries over the past three weeks. It's ridiculous. We'll just put the best team we can out. We won't play anyone who's injured

I understand that this was said to a degree tounge in cheek but really is this the sort of thing you'd want to hear coming from the head coach as either a player or fan of the Brisbane Broncos??

He's just scared of the Eels.

Stuart KNOWS it will be the Eels. Stuart KNOWS we'll beat them, easy. Pretenders are always easy. ;-):lol:

I don't think it was tongue in cheek. Bennett said exactly the same thing last year, and it just indicates that he's given up on this year. Which for a teams supporters who are LEADING the bloody competition is mortifying.

For the first time ever, I'm going to say it. Wayne Bennett needs to be replaced.

Wayne Bennett is a dickhead.
He always has been.
His whinges get worse every week.

Seriously, your team's leading the comp & you wanna forfeit because you have a couple injuries. What a dink. I wish he & his team would forfeit the NRL.

WAYNE BENNETT....YOU'RE A WHINING ****STICK!!!

Confident huh? Then how come your mob's fate ain't in their hands anymore?

Jeez it would be funny if Manly won this weekend!

Let them pull out of the comp if they want.

On that form last night, Parra would piss on the Roosters.

Ricky, to win games against the "top" sides, you have to score these things called TRIES.

 

[Dr Crane]

What would the Chooks do the the Minor Premiers? Put them to sleep and try to run in a few tries while the defence is taking a kip?

yeah yeah - one more Manly loss and we might even see Rooster Cogburn again...

Looking more and more like Dragons vs Eels - the Tigers are the big unknown for mine, and if the Broncos get some people fit they'll still be tough...

Next week you can expect a second string broncos side down at Parramatta.


No Seymour, Lockyer, Hodges, Webcke, Stagg, Barnes, Parker, McGuire (just to name a few).

By the sounds of that, Wayne won't play anyone who isn't 100%.

Broncos v Cowboys week 1 of the finals.

It's good if they speak with honesty, but only when they are mentally sound.

Also I find it amusing when other coaches like Stuart speak honestly they get blasted by the Broncos, Broncos fans and Broncos media for speaking honestly and told that if they think that they shouldn't say it. Hypcoritical?

This from the clown who claims others are arrogant.

Back on the bandwagon for the time being it seems.
