Benji Marshall #70

[Jedi_Tiger]

Last season we had 2 coaches in Sheens and Benji
now one coach .
our forwards we as good as most in the comp it was out halves that let us down , we had nobody to control the game and send players through holes etc, Sezer is a big step up and Sullivan will,be busting to have a go , Coach Benji will move us up the ladder in 2024

if we do get Luai for 2024, Sezer can "mentor" from nsw cup, the club should run with
7. Sullivan 6 Luai
or
7. Luai 6. Fainu

Good players make good coaches mate. Fix recruiting and you win. Footy is not a complicated game.

At park level I agree.
At NRL level, that is completely untrue.

A park coach given Slater, Inglis, Cam and Cronk. He’d go alright. Or you reckon not?

Yeah, that’s not necessarily true. A lot of average players became great coaches.

And do we have guys like that? Do we have guys anywhere near that?

No and no. Richo’s job is to get Benji what he needs to win. Good players.

How much coaching do you think Kalyn Ponga has had since he arrived in FG at the Cowboys and then at the Knights under what’s his name? Realistically.

Just won a Dally M and carried the Knights into the semis. All of a sudden what’s his name can coach again haha

Sign the good players, the coach will look like a legend.

Haha. Billy Slater probably would have coached QLD for nothing, doesn’t need the coin. Never coached either.

Had the best players and understands the game. Not rocket science.

The coach needs to be able to motivate the players and they need to want to play for him. But they have to have ability before that can happen. We’re not there yet.
