Wayne Bennett confirmed as 2015 coach of Brisbane Broncos

[Kaz]

After the game press conference, WB said that the Knights win was the best since he's been at the club. (which is 3 years)

All I can say is, The Broncos are in deep trouble.

Run for the hills everyone, doom & gloom are on the horizon. The end of nigh, the world is ending.

If Wayne doesn't pick a retarded bench it will be all worth it.

Off to the pub for a pint then?

Maybe if most of us hadn't had our ethics and morals questioned for supporting the signing of Bennett, we wouldn't be gloating

 

[jarro65]

He can't get here soon enough IMO.

Last night proved yet again that Griffin is not the man to lead us forward.

No structures. crap bench .... ridiculous substitutions.

Seriously, if ever we needed a good performance, it was last night ..... and we got jack (Reed)

So giving up your morals and ethics is ok if you win, is that what you're saying?

 

[Unbreakable]

The main reason I'm looking forward to Wayne coming home is he knows how to utilize players to their strengths, and knows how to use a bench effectively, 2 things that Griffin seriously struggles to do.

Hopefully he realises that Barba needs to get down to 2012 weight and isn't paranoid about him not being a 100kg little nugget **** that will still miss tackles anyway.

Hurry please Wayne.

Ask your mate Craig that question.

I'm not necessarily looking forward to Bennett coming on board but I am looking forward to the end of the Griffin era.

I do love Lockyers attitude, the decision has been made so let's move on. I'm going to choose to be optimistic for the next few years until Bennett gives me a reason to be pessimistic. I don't give a **** what he has done at the Knights or Dragons, I care what he will bring in the next 3 seasons.

Hook is an even better bloke than I first realised.

All week a had been feeling guilty about how happy I was he'd been fired, and last night Griffin whispered in my ear (figuratively, of course) "don't feel bad, theshed. It's okay to hate me".

 

[Bucking Beads]

Bennett has quite the mess to clean up. We still aren't aware of what kind of impact the salary cap investigation will have on us. Our defence is shot to pieces. Bennett is a great man manager and I have faith he can still get the best out of players but we really need someone at the club to help out the halves and we really need a quality defensive coach.

That's certainly an interesting stand point from you being a storm fan.

All I'm saying is it's a bit rich for certain posters to whinge because the pro WB people are 'gloating', after a week where any one that was for the WB signing had their ethics questioned.

Basically you treat people like arseholes and are then surprised when they behave like arseholes

Bennett is in for a long year if the players are upset Griffin is gone. May need a broom and machete to cut off the head of the Griffin lovers in the team otherwise this is the sort of disinterested shit they will dish up.

Well I at least think Bennett is one man who is probably capable of cutting the rott that has set in over the last four years......... mediocrity has become acceptable as long as there is 'effort'.

Bennett may not be a long term solution but I'm hoping he could be the catalyst to get the club back on the path to where it should be.

i really dont understan why you lot seem to think bennett will clean out the rubbish from our squad?
He kept players like carlaw, meyers and stu fucking kelly around WAYYYYY longer than he should have while at the broncos, while in his team at the knights he has left boyd at fullback when he was in the worst form i have ever seen a player in (first half of year) while he had players in the reserves team killing it. Have a long think about what you are expecting. A guy that has a history of NOT culling crap from teams is not going to just change his way when he gets here.

Also dont know why you think he will start playing people in their right positions all the time
This is a guy that ran with stagg in the centres, stagg in the halves, carroll in the halves just to name a few.

For some reason I don't think Bennett is the type of man who will put up with players bitching that their "best mate" has been fucked off. The great thing about Bennett is, despite what some posters are saying, that he is a draw card for talent. If he were coach instead of Henjack we would have had Inglis, which would have probably translated into a premiership in 2011.

.......Were we watching the same game? WERE WE OBSERVING THE SAME PERFORMANCE?

Well lets see if we were.

On my TV the refs gifted the Knights a win. They didn't win on Alex's day last week, so they get the win on hand the cheque over to Alex night.

The refs penalised the Chooks for the most minute things. Didn't do that to the Knights.

Sends Jared Waerea-Hargreaves to the sin bin for swearing, all he said was it was a fucking forward pass. Knights score winning try not long after that.
