Benji 2025 and Beyond

[upthetigers]

Imagine how we'd be going if we had someone who knew how to coach !!

Imagine how we'd be going if we didn't have quality players signing because of Benji

It’s a lose-lose situation, Benji is learning on the job and probably isn’t ready to coach us yet but if we do let him go we probably lose a few quality players

Club is still broke

We aren't broke, the owners rake in millions are year from their pokies. We're just not putting a lot in.

Imagine how we’d be going if those quality players were helping us win games

I get what you’re saying, but I disagree. Talents like Moylan, RCG, DWZ and Yeo over that initial period with a recent debutants in 2016 in Nathan Cleary, Edwards, JFH and Leota they were primed.

Well said.

I just think what Penrith achieved is kinda remarkable. Not even the storm have done 4 straight and your going back to pre-cap times.

Yes, they had some champions... But the riff's success is more a strong team with the right people in key parts. Removing Romey and they fell apart. Also while Mr Cleary did good here, we still did not make the 8 and arguably had some bad picks.

Meh can happily agree to disagree. Glad the riff got 4 in a row over Roosters or Storm.

The few games they win they do it for Benji cause they love him.
So the majority of games that they lose They must not care for Benji That much that week.

Top 4 is a bit crazy. What else is crazy is how long it’s been since we made the 8, and it seems to be accepted that this is just another year on the pile.

Yea...

I mean I am accepting that we will just miss the spoon.
Our attitude is better, our training is still soft!

Benji would be the fluke coach that could take a well trained side to the finals.
Benji is not the training/rebuild coach we need. We thought it was madge, it wasn't.

Brad Arthur IMHO is the only hard nosed coach I think that could build the WT up. We can't keep backing the 2005 squad and being inbred.

What games that we have lost, do you think we win, with another coach, if we had the same roster?

Benji needs more wins this year and start next season stronger than this season , if he can get another 2 or 3 wins this season I’m ok but he would def need to keep getting wins early next season , the club can keep rolling along like this and coming up with rubbish rebuilds , it will take 3 years etc , we heard this 5 times already , it’s 2025 we win in 2005 , that’s 20 years with only a couple years being ok out of the 20 , so no more bullshit rebuild excuses , if say Brad Arthur had this team now from today plus the chance to buy a couple more players we go too 8 next season I feel , he is way more experienced coach than Benji , I’m not slagging Benji off either , love the guy and what he did for this club but I just see him trying but is just not up to nrl coaching and also protecting himself by bringing in his group off assistants who none would get a coaching gig over Brad Arthur’s at any other club , Richo has to protect the club now and set the frame in stone with the coach , 2025 need 2 more wins , season 2026 you must be 7 wins from first 10 rounds , no excuses
