Well it starts with running out in a straight line , then remember where I told them to stand , on the white spot I put on the ground , well boys that’s enough for this week , don’t want to over burden you 🤔🥴
Coach Benji 👑
- Thread starter LeichhardtBoy
- Start date
While ever the focus is on Benji you allow the club to exist on false hope when they sack him for the next guy and waste more money paying him out, while congratulating themselves for throwing money at "football" in the Hunter and having board members all support it with their scarves on while Wests Tigers are falling in heap... so over this mob and those who think that they are doing us a favour by maintaining control.
Surely in the remaining 3 games, there is one clear obstruction for all players that wa t tk be selected in our top 17 next season, to simply run harder and tackle harder than their opponent.
Very unlikely for Terrell as he does not have it in him to stand up to top class opponents.
900 plus per season down the drain.

Dear Benji,
We have 2 halfbacks at the club currently, Andrews and Latu.
The team has a huge weakness in the centres, Douehi is an NRL centre. Herbert is an excavator operator.
It isn't rocket science.

You know that Doobie is not going to move for anyone and Benji will just concede as usual.

Not sure I'd have any confidence in Doueihi's defence at centre at the moment mate, look at some of his soft attempts yesterday even though Herbert was ordinary too.
The young halves should be given a game before the season's done but I wouldn't be doing it against the roosters, it could be confidence shattering.

Yeah big ask against the Roosters ay. I would keep Luai there for this game with Latu at 7. Then have Latu and Javon the following week
Problems run deeper than the coach. I don’t see any value in changing.

Probably the best call man, Latu having more NRL experience for next week then try both against the cows to see if their combination can handle it.
If they work well, keep it going against the Riff, last game of the season means jack anyway and it's over for the year.

i dont understand siging contract untill 2030 with no results for 3 years.....i belive Benji is to young and has no coach expirience or players management skills, maybe he did some one move and got 2005 Grand Final...but is it enough to be coach?

I disagree with this. At full strength and with the right attitude we have shown this roster can play well, even with a terrible coach. We need a coach who can get the best out of this roster, who selects the right players in the right spots, and can implement smart game plans.A good coach is key to playing finals in 2027. Along with a better run with injuries of course.

can not agree, he lost Lachlin, Silva and all this politics going on with Adam its too much, he can not handle the players like Bellamy unfortunatelly.

Sukkar is not a NRL standard edge backrower, and IMO never will be. Too slow.

Furthermore, the whole Luai drama has clearly had a very destabilising impact on some players.
You can't blame Benji for that?
No, but we can blame him with persisting with Luai's dancing, which confuses everyone resulting in no set tries.
And letting Doueihi dictate where he wants to play after refusing to play in another position.

Like I say to this argument … most of them come from somewhere else themselves … every club has players coming and going …but it only derails our seasons ?

I think Benji can be held somewhat accountable for the Luai grab and run destabilising the dressing room. Instead of the good bro approach and guaranteeing him a spot in first grade he should have immediately shown him the door. It would have galvanised the playing group. The Douehi dummy spit just compounded the issue of Benji's weaknesses.

Id just like to know why it took the team until the 70th minute to really start playing tigers type of footy...
Have they had the creativity coached out of them to follow the penrith mould?
Its like somewhere along the way, we changed our style... too much... because the penrith style doesnt suit this team...
I hate this club, because the last 10 mins gave me hope we might actually score a few tries against the roosters 😂😂

That is by far the most sensible option imho so it probably is zero chance of happening.
