I agree with you about the "jobs for the boys" thing. It may be a good selling point from some fans.....but give me someone who is proven in some way anyday. I think the Broncos are going to go down that path and bulldoze the ex-broncos old boys out.....which I think is a good thing for where they are as a club atm. Im thinking this could be Richo's second error.
There is no measuring how bad the effect of spoonbowl will turn out to be.....the result was always going to overrate or underrate the team.
Some interesting points.
Elsewhere I’ve noticed a lot of praise for the appointment, but not on merit but under the mantra of “ Richo knows best”
The cult of personality.
I think the Broncos had a swing at “moving on the matey” when they hired Seibs.
And he was white-anted throughout his tenure, dreadful stuff.
That said, I was surprised that Kevvie wasn’t given another year.
I think Richo is not understanding the frustration and deep centred resentment that the rank and file have with “life on the matey. “
There’s only about 3 or 4 players in the 2005 roster that haven’t had their snout into the trough at some stage.
If we can’t entice a fringe assistant coach in the nrl ( or a handy underling) to help Benji, things are not right at the office.
Its deeply embarrassing to be honest.
It looks unprofessional and to read the crap from the club about Hodgos wonderful coaching career is sickening.
He has slightly better figures than Benji, but that’s not very difficult is it?
Robbie stood up to Benji and it didn’t end well for Robbie. It was not good.
I can’t imagine Hodgo as Yoda.
I’m concerned.
We really need more decent signings, its at critical level Richo. Pick up the phone!
