Anthony Seibold wipes Wayne Bennett’s legacy from Red Hill

[Sirlee oldman]

This all confirms for me that the main reason why the club wanted to get rid of Wayne was that the brand was sick of being targeted by the media with negative coverage. We seem to be going to a lot of trouble to make sure that this ‘new’ era includes a new relationship with the press.
I’m not complaining about it and I’m on board with Seibs but that was the driving force behind the coach swap saga.

So I wonder if Jack Bird spoke to Rothfield.

Not really. The club went through the shit in general last year with the Lodge saga but punting a coach because he's unpopular with the media isn't what happened.

There were alot of internal rumblings about WB essentially nowadays being an unbearably grumpy old man and different after the divorce. True or not, that's what was coming out.

WB got the shaft because (a) he's nearing 70 years old and the board identified a younger man as the next longterm coach and (b) he hadn't delivered a premiership during Wayne 2.0.

Further, repainting a wall with a new coach's ethos (i.e. standard operating practice in elite sports facilities the world over) doesn't erase WB's legacy.

Nothing can wipe Bennett's legacy from Red Hill. 6 premierships, the profile and financial strength of the club and 100s of young men he helped mentor as coach are his permanent legacy.

Hopefully one day some bridges can be mended between Wayne and the club, for the good of both parties (but in particular the Broncos). He is 100% the greatest coach ever and should be immortalised in the clubs history somehow at the Berghofer Centre or Suncorp Stadium.

Alluding, elude means to evade, escape, avoid capture or danger etc. They seem to get mixed up as much as your and you're even though not used as frequently.

Oh yeah oops my bad
Hopefully it didn't dilute the entire post..

Exactly
It is just baddell trying to stir up

There’s one thing left to do to make it so. After tonight’s effort, it’s time

Well, this would never have happened under Bennett!

Anthony Milfored was the first winner of the coffee voucher.
BRONCOS COFFEE FOR COMMENT
Brisbane Broncos are trying to improve their relationship with the media by encouraging players to be more open with journalists. The club has even introduced a weekly in-house media award where a $20 coffee shop voucher goes to the player who does the best to promote the club.
First-up winner is the notoriously shy Anthony Milford, who is normally wary of journos. He turned up for the Broncos’ media open day last week, even though he wasn’t playing this weekend and didn’t have to be there.

At least it’s not a Maccas voucher, I suppose.

Does that $20 go under the salary cap?

Does that $20 go under the salary cap?

Actually a valid comment lol, couldn't we just give players "$1,000 gift cards" every week for their "community work".

:P

It used to be turn back the boats now it’s burn the boats.

 

[abashii]

I thought the best way to build a premiership squad was to give the players boats?

 

[Huge]

If the media were more reliable than a cheating spouse then some players might be able to trust them a tiny amount of the time but they're just not able to achieve that low standard. Seibold is fucking dreaming and his attitude will change as soon as the muck raking and prying starts in earnest.

There'll come a time when he realises what WB has known for decades, the journalists and their masters are leeches and scum who are not the slightest bit interested in their victims but totally focussed on being noticed and achieving notoriety and consequently clicks.

Invite these pigs into your private world and you will no longer have a private world. Speaking for myself I don't believe I have a right to know and for me to learn details about a person who I 'know' vicariously through the media should only happen if that person tells me themselves.

That said, should crimes be committed then absolutely they should be exposed but revealing that information should only happen after correct and allowable means of enquiry have been employed. Only a fool keeps coming back after betrayal upon betrayal.

You need to before you can burn them.

The arrival of new Brisbane Broncos coach Anthony Seibold has been boosted by the announcement of Splatt Lawyers as Official Head Coach Sponsor.
The Brisbane-based personal injuries law firm, who have been assisting Queenslanders for nearly 30 years on a no win no fee basis, join the club for the first time as Platinum Partners.
The partnership will see Splatt Lawyers branding on Seibold's apparel, in the coaches' box at both home and away games, as well as a range of other benefits including match day LED signage and similar branding for the apparel of premiership-winning NRL Women's coach Paul Dyer.
