Wayne Bennett quitting the Knights

It really sucks supporting this club. I know everyone says that about their teams from time to time but it really is a tough club to support. There's constantly drama. We've already lost so much this year with Alex and the owners leaving...and now have to deal with the coach leaving and a subsequent player exodus.

I don't blame Bennett for leaving, but man, it does feel like a massive kick in the guts while we're already on the ground.

lol This post is pure fiction

Most of us were hoping he'd stay on but were prepared that he wouldnt

His was never not paid either champ

I think he means the subsequent years of the contract he was offered by the NRL didn't measure up to his deal with HSG.

Im not worried about Wayne, im just dreading the player exodus when he's gone.

I know the knights have been shit for the majority of the last 3 years, but it was nice to actually land players like Gagai and BJ...

Titans makes the most sense

Moves home
Looking at getting rid of Cartwright
Battle with AFL
Darius' home town plus they need a fullback

It's always good to get a BJ

Only problem with the Titans is they would have to pay out Cartwright's contract and he still has a couple of years to go

I think it's pretty poor form from Bennett.
Taking his bat and ball and going home just because he can't cop being involved in an unsuccessful team.
Stick around and finish your job!

He took the Knights to the bottom of the ladder.

Mission accomplished in my books.

Who coaches them is the least of Newcastle's problems, Benny needs to see the twilight from greener pastures

Blaming Cartwright for not being able to keep the same team on the paddock is akin to blaming the captain of the Titanic for not building the heap of shit watertight

Zillman,Mead and maybe even Kelly next year to fit Mortimer in when Seizer is fit.

Honestly has a single young player come through under Bennett while at the Knights, his whole team is built on old has beens.

Are you suggesting Darius wouldn't be first choice fullback at GCT because they have zillman, mead, Kelly?

He would be the best player at that club!

So he takes responsibility for f**king the club up than leaves instead of help fixing it?
Thanks supercoach.
