No mention of Jason Demetriou being considerd then? They must be mad in the front office. JD has shown h is capable of coaching young men with his winning track record before coming to the Broncs. teh fact he will have completed a further year under bennett and know our full squad already inside out is just an opportunity not to be missed. We maybe a chance of snaeking a GF this year, but we are pretty much odds on for 2019 and 2020 with the squad we have emerging. Even if Benny wins one between now and the end of 2019 I still say we give JD first crack at it when Benny leaves. A two year deal with an option would not harm the club as the squad we will have then would win a GF even if Brian Smith was coach.

I'm at a loss as to why there has been so little noise on here in support of Jason Demetriou. I'm sure if you ask any of the playing staff they'd confirm he's an awesome guy and a fantastic coach.

I think there is a good chance Madge is an interim coach for 2019 and Seibold gets the gig after his contract runs out. Personally I can't see that happening but the contract situation does line that up.


Untested rookies/assistants are interim coaches

No way Madge moves to Brisbane to be a 1 year stop gap solution

Also, just a quick point @Rellum your post is self-contradictory

First you say there is a 'good chance' and then you say 'you can't see it happening'

Rookie error from Siebold really.

Every coach knows you can't be completely open to the media. They will take advantage of it.
That's what I mean though... Seibold was open with the media and although I don't think they quoted him a whole lot they clearly ignored the direct quotes he was providing them and went along with their own agenda.

He'll have learnt from this and I doubt he'll be so open moving forward.

What more can he say? Media said Bennett sacked, we're getting one of the Souths coaches as a done deal. He addressed the bullshit.
It would clear the air if WB confirmed that he will honor the last year of his contract. Doubt that he will bcus he wants 2020 as well. So its more than likely he will move on. So who coaches us in 2019??.

You still wouldn't be right even if you didn't count Brisbane Comp. You not knowing something doesn't mean it didn't happen.

He’s 7 out of 8 as head coach.

You'd make a great journo. You're literally reading into nothing, and coming up with a story.
Maybe I am Nashy. But do u honestly think that what PW said will stop the media frenzy.

No I don't. But I doubt it's anything to do with White, it's more likely the fact that these pissant "journos" can see the fans banging on with their own theories based on nothing, so know if they release the same bullshit, they're going to get some clicks.

Good decision. Hopefully it means we keep TPJ and the rest of the players we want to keep!

Wrong he was head coach of Souths in 79, 84 and 85 and Raiders 87.

To say it's a fact he didn't coach Souths and the Raiders is just ignorant.

theres one person who cares about the BRL and its you.

He was co-coach of the raiders.

effectively an assistant.
