The club made the mistake of bringing back Sheens originally no argument on that, but I do have to question how many people were legit interested in the head coach job after Madge was given the boot. I doubt there was many tbh but Sheens should have never been given the job again. If Benji was...

Des is done there’s no way he gets a head coach job after this gig. Brad Arthur is the only one that’s available that has some quality but even he’s not the greatest coach in the game.

Maybe mate. I understand why the ones on here want Benji gone, but there isn’t real quality out there to replace him with.

Des was a great coach in his day but sadly his time has passed. I also think though a lot of quality coaches wouldn’t put their hand up if the job did become available.

No he was considered maybe he did an interview but they decided to go Mal with Gardiner joining him as an assistant. Des is done as a coach you can’t have the likes of Tino, Fifita, AKP, Brimson, Campbell as well as other talented players they have and be dead last. It might not be a premiership...

Club pretty much has to get Brad Arthur if they’re moving on from Benji, realistically he’s the only option out there that might have a chance of fixing us. Agree though not many coaches will put their hand up though.

With players sure, surely you can’t do that for the coaches not everyone is capable of doing that. Again though NRL and SL are different he might be a great SL coach, that doesn’t mean he’ll be a great or even a good NRL head coach. If he does make the jump over I hope he does have success, but...

He recently signed an extension until 2028 so that’s a no go. Even if he was available I’m skeptical of coaches from the SL system to NRL’s. Yes I know he’s an Aussie and has been an assistant coach before, but SL and NRL are two different leagues our game is much faster than theirs also ours is...

Des was available to be signed though, Manly made the decision to release him before his contract with them was up. And we released Ivan from his contract to join Penrith as they were worried Nathan was gonna jump ship. If we could sign any coach we wanted we’d probably would have gone all in...

Yes but the media will make it difficult for us to be successful, the amount of stories we get already almost on a daily basis is hard enough to convince potential players to come and keep junior talent and other players already here. The media has crucified us every time we’ve sacked a coach...

Respectfully, we can’t give the head coach job to another rookie. Hannay might have been a good assistant coach for years, but this club is not the one for him to start his head coach career. If we’re moving on from Benji we need an experienced head at the role, or as you said give Benji better...

At this stage it’s either stick with Benji, or sack him for Brad Arthur, unless by a miracle some quality coach become available in the next few weeks.

The club is in a difficult position, but the media will crucify us for sacking another coach. Especially given that the club has lost Galvin and now possibly TDS within a short period. We are defiantly gonna get called a basket case (which will have some merit to be fair), given as well that...

Best coach that’s available IMO is Brad Arthur, can’t think of anyone else who is better then him that’s available.

We can’t go with someone who’s never been a head coach before. If the club is gonna move on from Benji it has to be someone who is experienced. Would have been fine with Gardiner but I doubt he would’ve come back after getting fired. Webster same thing.

Plus when you look at the coaches who are available it doesn’t exactly make you one of think these guys will get us finals bound. Walters 👎👎, Barrett 👎👎👎, Griffin 👎👎👎 all terrible and wouldn’t be a quality replacement. Some on here have said Burgess he’s having a terrible season in the SL...

So far the Laulili bros, Mason and TDS (for now) are all that’s left. Miller and Galvin are gone and the rest of the squad went elsewhere.

Twice. First one back in 2023 against the Dolphins at CommBank, and last year at LO against the Titans. Both home games for us so this’ll be the first away win with him at 7 if we pull it off.

I do think Benji will get a crack next year but if not I have at least 4 things I want in the next coach 1. The coach can’t be apart of the 05 winning squad so that rules out Hodgo and Payton (though not available yet). Also no to Morris as he seems to be apart of the boys club in the coaching...

I think with Richo we won’t hear the board endorsing under him, it’ll just be him if necessary.
