Whilst never been a fan of Bennet he has proven me wrong many times.

A legend of coaching, maybe the best ever, but imo he is old an derelict.

IF, we are chasing that calibre coach, let’s get one age capable. Throw the bank at Bellamy. (To which in think he’d have no interest).

Cleary is already a great coach, but he’s (as much as I hate to say it) has his son who is the best player in the world playing for him.

If we’re chasing Bellamy a significant upgrade to our coaches box is in order.

So an average coach would be expected to only make the finals 8 times, win one grand final, lose one grand final and win a wooden spoon in a span of 16 years. And win 50% of their games.
Wouldn’t it depend on which club the ‘average coach’ was working for? Ricky Stuart’s record is very different at each of the clubs he’s coached at, as is Cleary’s. If Brad Arthur coached at the Tigers he would likely never make the finals either. At the Roosters/Storm/Panthers he would probably have won a premiership.

Yeah and usually there’s an assumption that a lower tier player may drop out of top 30 quality but apparently that’s not an assumption of everyone’s.
I don't think there's ever an assumption that a bloke in his mid-20s will get worse. He might get replaced when a younger backup with more potential needs his spot, but that's nothing to do with the established backup losing ability. Melbourne usually have a few older guys in the bottom of their top 30. Everyone except the recent Panthers squads really.
