Lets say for arguments sake he takes the Raiders to a premiership this year that would have to be a record for a coach in breaking a premiership drought. Tim Sheens went about 12 years before winning another one didn't he? Anyone else?

Sheens' one appears to be the longest. Next longest I can find is Arthur Halloway who coached the Premiers (namely the Roosters) in 1937 before coaching the same team to the title in 1945.

Here's the list I referenced -

I almost want him to win another one now, just so we can do the top 2 and he ain't 2 line.

Only this time it'll actually make sense.

Ricky has done it. After having a job for 22 years based on the glory of 2002 he has finally got around to coaching another contender. He wins the premiership this year and he will be employed until the 2050s
