What is happening at the Broncos?

What's wrong?

Lack of cohesion (players in wrong positions and combinations)

Lack of direction (no halfback)

Lack of leadership (noone to look for in the forwards or backs)

Lack of organisation (coaching staff need to pick up their game)

Lack of communication (our most important players are mutes)

Lack of responsibility (players sheltered from criticism)

Ignoring our depth players (funaki, mago, scarlett, tagataese ect)

the only thing I like about your opinions is Funaki, who I only like because of his hair and his name
 
Can we stop this bullshit please, I’m sick of coming into threads thinking there will be actual discussion instead it is just this bullshit from a knights fan that is fooling no one but himself.

On this forum every second poster is denouncing Thaiday and no one seems to care. He is (apparently) on around 350k. For that I wouldn't say he is "good value" but certainly not bad. WB is on a reported 1.2 mil but as soon as I say a bad word about him I'm branded biased, subjective, a douchbag, a cockgobbler (indirectly because the posters condescending, passive aggressive style is witty) and a Newcastle supporter (because I can't remember but apparently I joined after the Newcastle game to denounce Milford and Boyd so that must mean I'm a Newcastle supporter. I don't see the logic but I assume I just missing it) among other things.

Is Wayne using his massively inflated salary to pay off people to shut down any criticism of him?

You simply have the biggest agenda I have ever seen on this message board.

If you're drawing salary comparisons, and Thaiday is "not bad" then Bennett on anything under 3 million is "not bad", since you know, he's the reason this club is the powerhouse it is, and the reason we're contenders every single year under him.

Wayne can be criticised for a lot of things, but his salary doesn't even come close to his worth to the club.

What agenda is that?

If you basing it on what he has done in the past, Thaiday shoudn't be making around 1/3 of what Milford, Bird and Boyd are on but more than all 3 combined.

Regardless, I don't know how I've been drawn into this. I have said specifically I don't think WB is doing a bad job with the team he has. I'm only critical of his public persona and his 4 year, big money deals for Boyd, Bird and Milford. I hope he proves me wrong with the latter 2. They still have the potential to become better. I just don't see how it's possible for Boyd but again, I hope I'm proved wrong.

You dont like bennett, which is fair enough, but your agenda against him makes you blind to anything else but your own opinion.

That said......do you entirely disagree?

Boyd? - Yeah probably...too big & too long a deal, but no-one could really be surprised, its Darius and Wayne wants him. I honestly don't think Boyd has it in his fortitude to be playing better at the back end of his career. He most likely will succumb to the growing public criticism and retire. He isn't mentally tough enough to rise above it.

Bird? - Roll of the dice. Could end either way....

Milford? - He is the closest thing we have to a top tier player. He will be the one to build a side around and take us to our next period of success. Of course you'd sign him up long term.

The players are valid points, im not convinced his views about Bennett are. He is far from this bitter old man persona that im not even sure he puts across

Independently from your feelings in regards to Bennett, do you actually have any doubts about the concerted attempts by the media to disrupt the Broncos players and coaching alike?

That "emotional outburst" served a dual purpose:
- Deflect the attention from his players (especially Lodge), by making himself the target of the media.
- Motivate the troops and fans around their team, by giving them a common enemy.

Whether you like it or not, he deserves the credit for that.

I know that while there are people here who are incapable of accepting any criticism of Bennett, most defend him for valid reasons and a ton of credit he has built over 30+ years coaching at the highest level.

I've got 22K+ posts on BHQ, and I cop it regularly from other members because I criticise him as well. You're a new poster on BroncosHQ who has done little more than bashing the incredibly successful club's foundation coach. What did you expect?

No one is expecting toadyism towards the man, but your approach is just going to make you a pariah and your opinion worthless, regardless of its merits.
So unless you're basically trolling for reactions, in which case... mission accomplished, you might want to deviate from your current path.
