NEWS Brisbane to Bennett: it's not you, it's us

What kind of offer does Billy find attractive? Billy we’d like to offer you a minimum wage contract.

Billy: this offer is too good to pass up!
I dunno maybe it’s a chance to learn his craft with a premiership winning half back and a premiership winning coach. Something he wouldn’t get at the tigers now that Benji has gone.
 
Come wed i will probe my suace's when they are back from Magic.
 
I will believe it when I see it, especially considering Brisbane 2 are going to be throwing the entire kitchen to lure Bennett there, but there is a part of me that gets the feeling that Wayne wants to work with Kev during his tenure as a first grade coach. Perhaps they have a closer relationship than many of us assume. They did win 5 premierships together after all.

I meant why would the club feel the need to offer Billy and attractive deal. He’s a nothing player and his dads the boss
 
The real headline should be "Bennett refuses to rule out any option"

He literally kept every option open and just provided cliche answers to every question they asked... hell he even claimed the Easts bid was good even though they're a million to one of getting the license!!!
Exactly this👆
WB is a Master negotiator!

He's upping his price while also being respectful.

He's 760yrs old & worth millions ffs.
Build a new club... how long does he really want to work 90+ hours a week!
IMO Wayne loves this club & wants to come home, he also sees a genuine opportunity to be a key cog in us winning a premiership in the next 3yrs.

He just wants to be paid appropriately.

Come on Broncos, pay him whatever it takes, he's worth it.

&
We can afford it!!!
 
You can already see the vast improvement in attitude in the playing group under Kevvie. He is also not scared to make the hard decisions like dropping Milford and Croft and Dearden and even had the notion to not even offer Dearden a contract. He would work well with Bennett and continue to bring star players to the club. Kevvie's Broncos may not have the flashier players like Siebold's Broncos but boy oh boy Kevvie has them playing for each other. No doubt about it, Kevvie can coach and it will be nice to see what he can do with a good set of players.

I definitely can't read Wayne Bennett's mind, but I can see both scenarios.

On one hand, the pull of being the foundation coach of another Brisbane team seems irresistible. It's new ground, but at the same time one he knows back to front. Whereas coming back to the Broncos as a spare wheel, well that's a bit of a been there done that.

On the other, like you say, working with Kevvie, returning home to the club he built and banging it back into shape, maybe that's his legacy. To right a wrong.

I honestly don't know which way he'll go. Or which way he should go.

I think if only to oversee Kevie winning a premiership and prove the point that Siebold didn't know shit from clay as far as running a footy club goes will be one strong pull in our favour.

He'll also make sure his giant posters go back up on the walls too. :happy:
 
Wayne enjoys being an enigma. He loves playing games with the media and having them all certain he will do one thing, only to do another.

I do hope he comes back though, wayne is a core part of the broncos DNA and having him in the club in any capacity increases the clubs appeal to players and junior players
