I think it’ll depend where we are on the ladder as well in this case. Even if we do snare 9-10 wins total if it’s around bottom 4 again he may get chopped.
I’m over changing coaches every 2 years I genuinely am, but the problem is in this case our fans are running out of patience. If we weren’t going through a finals drought that’s spanned 13 years potentially 14 if we miss again this year, we could probably agree to give that kind of time...
I look at it from this perspective, if Benji gets us finals bound even if we just make it he’s definitely safe. If we just miss the 8 and we finish around 9th-11th I say the club leans towards most likely safe. If we finish 12th-13th it can go either way as yes there’s been improvement but not a...
Honestly I don’t think we were many coaches first choice last time around after Madge got the sack. I know there was talk that Flanno was interested but hard to say. Some say he was, others say he wasn’t, but anyway I agree you don’t generally hire a former coach again (unless it’s Bennett). I’m...
In regards to Des and Madge even if they do get the chop I wouldn’t bring them here. We had Madge and it failed and I was one of his supporters, and Des I think sadly his time has passed. He’s been a great coach and has had some success in his career, but he’s had problems at Dogs, Manly and now...
Don’t think we can go someone who’s not been a head coach again. The job has to go to someone who’s been a NRL head coach before, way too much risk to hire someone who’s not been one yet.
He’s the best that’s available at the moment. I’m not calling for Benji to be sacked (yet) but there are a lot of poor coaches that are available should we decide to move on. BA has a 5-5 record of making the finals, that’s better than majority of the coaches who are available. BA might not be...
Brad Arthur being linked to the Titans. Just a rumour for now think it was posted by Buzz but if the club wants to move on from Benji IMO BA has to be the one to coach us. At the very least I wonder if Richo will give BA a call.
If Benji had a proper apprenticeship I think he’d be one of the best coaches in the game. Unfortunately he didn’t and probably won’t unless Bennett or Bellamy are willing to take him on as an assistant should we decide to go elsewhere for a coach.
He must’ve been hurt, otherwise I can’t think why he didn’t come back on for another stint. If he was ok to play then I’ll defiantly be asking why Benji didn’t play him again.
It’s his first gig as a head coach for a professional rugby league competition though where the standards are a lot lower compared to NRL. The NYC team was kids where the standards were a little less than NRL at the time. Yes he’s close to Richo and been an assistant coach in the NRL, but never...
Heard he’s apparently going to SL to coach one of the clubs over there. Don’t know if true though but if not he’s the only one I’d consider for the job that’s not been an NRL head coach before. Otherwise it’s gotta go to someone who’s been one before IMO.
I know Peters was the Tigers head coach for the NYC team back in 2016 can’t remember how we did that year. But hard to compare his coaching in the SL for NRL when the comp over there is nowhere near NRL standard. Good for him to get them to forget place, but the standards over there are a lot...
