I would also like to know what Hodgo and Heighno are on? What was John Morris on? Same money to spend on a new assistant coach. And what is WT offering [or range of $$$] for the new assistant coach?

Can't blame Brooks taking the money offered. But we can blame WT for playing him as a half all those years. I wonder how many years it will take to find out that Latu is not a 7?

I'm a big fan of Shane Sultana. Hope he applies? And if so, I hope Benji listens.

And Tim Johannsen was with us [and his brother]. Underwhelming and undersize from memory. But tried hard.

You're right, Ivan was very coy when it was announced Luai was leaving to be out halfback to lead us around the paddock. He had that expression on his face----Good luck with that. Never seen it here. I doubt it will work, [but did not bag him either]

Makes a lot of sense. IF ONLY?

What stood out to me was his blank face when strolled over for his 1st try. Had plenty of space and time to improve his position closer to the posts. No sense of urgency or emotion. Just a blank look. It should have been instinct to improve the position. Hope I'm wrong with my perception; but I...

Benji is known by every rugby league follower and; 1. Can attract players 2 Looks good on camera. 3. Speaks well. BUT; as a coach there seems to be something lacking. How long do we persist with his L plates. I think this was shown by the way he handled the Doueihi saga and Luai jumping ship...

Can't understand how Yeo has a Pectoral tear and plays after about 4 weeks. Our guys out from about round 7 or so; and for the season? See you in 2027. On full pay. Is that our physio or slack rehab. Yeo reportedly worked 24/7 on rehab to get fit. And now playing! Just asking the question.

Who wears number 7?

Obviously didn't want to burn bridges. But not happy with the dictatorship of Benji and his mates. The new position - includes, inter alia; Lead the development, implementation and continuous improvement of the Club's coaching framework. Recruit, develop and support current and emerging...

What stood out to me was, the Knights wingers stayed on the wing and Bradman Best chased and caught the opp. centre every time. Best was 1st class shutting down Souths backline. The wingers could rely on him. Our wingers can't rely on our centres at all. Panic stations, no idea, not coached and...

Leck: Holbrook has taken Newcastle from last to the top eight. Great coaches are key, and he's proved this. That is our problem. Our coach still has his L plates on. [Great with everything except coaching] But let's start with some new assistant coaches. Keep the fans interested. Quote from...

You just nailed it You just listed all the shortcomings of our coaches. Who's to blame? Are they all below par? Benji did have the final say--and responsibility. I totally agree from the outside looking in. The bench selections and game management seemed very poor and was reflected in the...

But that's not Api's fault. The others need to catch up.
