Bennett has basically been sacked this time Pete. No new contract. Pushed out.
Paul White has pulled the trigger at the right time. Legend.
A lot different from the past depatures Bennett has made. This stint at the Broncs has been a poor one. The shoes won't be too hard to fill with the roster locked up and the best crop of forwards in RL history ready to be unleashed on their lowly opposition for years to come though.
Only problem going forward will be how much to cut Milfords contract by when the time comes.
Brisbane want to win comps with their advantageous set up Pete.
One in 18 yrs aint good enough. Wayne has had 2/3 of that time there for 1 comp.
More to the point, why has he had such little success in those 12 years at the Broncs post 2000 compared to the glory years pre 2000?
Competitive aint good enough with the leg ups.
Only proper window washers blame Bennett for what happened at Dragons.
Bit more to blame at Newcastle, but there were many other issues with that club.
His second stint at Broncos hasn’t actually been that bad. They were literally seconds from a premiership the year he took over, and for mine he’s done as much, if not more, than any coach could in the last 2 years with that roster.
With 'that' roster???
What's been wrong with the roster other than the massive f**k up Bennett made with the no 7 jumper?
Plenty of Origin reps and young guns in that roster.
Agreed.With 'that' roster???

I said at the start of the year that it was the weakest Broncos roster I’ve seen but the emergence of some really quality young forwards have proven me wrong.I feel like the anti-Broncos brigade schizophrenically jump from “shit team, will miss the 8” to “stacked roster” depending on the specifics of the argument.

Agree, there is a premiership window coming up for Brisbane. A few of their bogey teams may be rebuilding in the next few years as well.Agreed.
The Broncos are only a halfback away from being a huge threat year in, year out.
The decision to sign Bird was very bizarre when a half was needed.
But with that absolutely awesome pack of young forwards and some very handy backs Brisbane could well win the comp next year if someone can play halfback.
Gun roster.

They also have to live as Broncos fansIt's funny hearing about how Broncos fans are worried that they haven't won a premiership for 12 years, there were even comments from Lewis about it. If 12 years without a premiership is the worst thing the Broncos will experience they are lucky.
They are envious/compare themselves to the Storm. That sort of arrogance/aura the Broncos use to have about them has been lost over the years.It's funny hearing about how Broncos fans are worried that they haven't won a premiership for 12 years, there were even comments from Lewis about it.

Eh...that ‘f**k up’ with the 7 jumper is one that the Broncos were creaming themselves over as soon as Hunt was announced to Dragons.With 'that' roster???
