Fair point, apologies I didn’t write down exact quotes.
One that sticks to mind is when they asked him about the Knik situation, with WB commenting good on Kodi for standing up for himself, which was clearly a dig at our management and coach. He knows nothing about what is happening at the club and his demeanour and response was clearly aimed at protecting his ego because Bennett was the one who kept him as full time no.7. God forbid a new coach with fresh ideas tries to disrupt what Bennett maintained so foolishly for too long!!
Well, can you not concede that that is what YOU personally read into it? Why is it clearly a dig? You then go on to claim special knowledge concerning the unspoken private inner thoughts of another human being!!!! I mean, how do you KNOW that he hasn't knowledge of what's happening within the Bronco's? Isn't it possible he still has friends who have kept him apprised? It's fine to have an opinion but his endorsement of Knik might just be a show of support and a message to Knik to not take a backward step and keep on believing in himself and perhaps his goals. Why do you guys keep feeling the need to tear down your fellow man?

IMO Bennett has succeeded in taking the focus away from his players.
 
Question : How do we think the media would have responded if Seibold had displayed the same 'attitude' that Bennett did in that presser ?

Have nothing against Wayne supporting Kodi....In a private capacity. If the quote is correct it is indeed a shot at our club and coach. We all know Bennett is very careful and precise with what he gives the media. He should have offered a "no comment" or some other fluff answer like he is well-known to.

Body language tells me all I need to know.
If you want to ignore this example then that’s fine... but how about the disrespect shown toward Seibold?

If I was Seibs and Bennett acted like that I would’ve said something clever, like
“Last season myself and the staff built a premiership ready team down there at Souths and so we have got some strides to go here at the Broncos. So it will be a tough test”

He could have just said that “We made a decision on halfback that Bennett should have made last year, you’re welcome”.

Not a problem because WB didn't display an 'attitude'. The difference would have been Seibold's presser would have been shorter. Nothing else. It only seems different because WB had nothing to talk about, Seibold's done nothing yet.

Why the **** should he do that...and cop shit from you and others for not commenting. He can't please everybody and he knows that and isn't about to start trying because you're butthurt.

You read it as disrespect. I read it as colour. WB won't lose sleep nor will I. Everyone's so fucking precious these days. Poor loves, the nasty old man hurt the other poor mans feelings. I'm still fucked if I know what he said that was so bad. No one round here seems to know.

Why would he cop shit for not commenting? Who in their right mind apart from the journo would honestly be upset that he brushed a question about Kodi Nikorima? Do other coaches comment on what they think is going on behind the scenes at their former clubs? What happens at the Broncos and the decisions we make are none of his business. Anymore.
 
Carrigan gets the nod over Staggs for the 7 minute garbage-time shift.
 
Speaking of knowing what is in peoples minds Huge, Can you offer an absolute assurance that is not( having a shot at the Broncos) what was exactly what Bennett was doing? No you can't cause it may well have been.

I usually like reading your posts but your tirades against anyone that criticizes Bennett or Boyd or has different opinion is getting a bit beyond it mate. And yes I realize you are being baited and so should you
 
Bennett has always and will always manipulate the media the way he wants

Mmm, Tom. Did WB comment on what was going on behind the scenes? Really? He didn't comment about the Bronco's and their decisions so he wasn't poking his nose in. He commented to offer support to his friend, why does that hurt you so much? You just have to deal with the fact that WB is his own man and will do whatever the **** he thinks is okay and he's not going to run it by you, Paul Kunt, the Bronco's or me for approval. If it's not okay then he'll deal with the fallout.

Anyway, it's all theatre and without WB and his horribleness it would all be boring. I mean, look at us going on about it. Well played WB, well played sir.
