If we sacked Fulton because he white-anted Benji, then I think we have to let Nofo go.
Some honesty and truth here, we all know that as a player, Benji was somewhat adept at white anting himself.
Other than this, we need to get some kind of relationship expert in to help heal the wounds.
Some apologies all around.
Benji has the absolute backing of the clubs most powerful players, it’s Ok if he takes the knee.
He doesn’t have anything to prove with his career, his miraculous appointment ( ie never coached a game of tiddlywinks before) and his greatest triumph to date in the harsh environment that is our beloved club, surviving Lee and Co. and the nuking of our board.
Better to have our ugly lot play, to an extent, for the love of Benji, not in fear. Benji prefers good working relationships with players.
If the current stand off isn’t working, we need an intervention. Every day nofo is not on board, we are losing and also nofo is losing. It’s ridiculous.

Nofo has to go IMO but someone needs to take him. At his cost rate and with not much pre season training off the back of 2 years of poor performances - the market will be limited.
Nofo hasn’t been performing for a while under multiple coaches and his position is actually threatened because he hasn’t been performing.
Him throwing the toys out of the cot and not turning up to training etc just highlights the problem for him.
That’s the hard truth for him. He isn’t the nrl winger force he once was & doesn’t have leverage anymore.
If Nofo doesn’t want to play for Benji then it ends his career unless he packs his bag or he changes.

Yay. Hopefully thats a sign....or maybe he was at the RLPA office filing another complaint.

A staged intervention to get Benji and Nofo into a room.
Sometimes coaches have to make sacrifices.
Then a team announcement that there has been some accidental misunderstandings.
Both men acknowledging their inadvertent role.
A bit of drama to add to the mental impact.
And if nofo still wants to protest, he can start up Allos lawnmower.

I wish he’d take 5 minutes to get back to me.
In my short email, I did ask him try to find a spot for Ronnie. Club icon and NRL treasure.
We have a gear steward position available now.
Anyway, I guess he’s ignoring me for a reason!!

No question about it…the club should give Ronnie a call.

Where is your info that Nofo and Benji have personal issues? You seem pretty adamant. I've always known them to get on well.

The Journo’s on Footy talk podcast said Nofo recently changed management and last years training incident really affected him.
Also mentioned no one wants him and Tigers may need to pay out contract if they want him gone.

What was the training incident?

I’ve got a different understanding as to where they are at now.
They’ve been mates for ages obviously, but things can happen.
I would like it resolved, sooner the better.
Under my peace program, there’s a chance but otherwise, nofo can’t win it.
Even if he’s right, he can’t win it…one of those situations.
I prefer other coaches than Benji, but I can’t win it and I have to give him a go.
It’s not going to kill me or cost me $500k per annum.
On the other hand, nofo is getting paid a kings ransom compared to me.

Hahah Justin Horo...where the effs he been?
Nothing really there saying him and Benji dont get on.
A coach got up a player...shock horror
Hes been given a chance it appears.
Weve heard no drama for al,most 2 months...even if we do read trash NRL media, we should ... @GNR4LIFE ...we should what?
I'll trust Benji...if he wants to keep him or if theyre trying to offload him, whatever they want theyll achieve
