Benji 2025 and Beyond

[Tito Santana]

I'm with you KS. May, Twal, Pole, Sione & Seyfarth all played the link role at various times.

Operation 'transform Lachie Ilias into a lock and bring him back to the Tigers'!

Benji was a mentor of his when he first made grade at the Rabbits so maybe he can mentor him again.

FMD.

Let’s bring players to the club to play in a position that they’ve never played at.

Hey while we’re at it - i think KPP would go well on the wing. He’s tall so it makes sense.

 

[king_sirro]

Not a bad shout.
Just depends if he sees himself as a lock or not

Im thinking he has no choice. He has no chance of making it as a 7

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I wonder what the success rate for for successful suggestions on players changing positions. I reckon it would be 0.01%. But we persist anyway.

Ilias has attributes that translate to a modern day lock utility Tito. He’ll be a future SOO player off the bench if he makes this move 😉

That sounds liike the move of a true Sheenius 🙂

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

If I had to choose - moving forward - I would have to choose Elias over Burgess D. And I grew up Raudonikis, Boyd, Cooper and Dallas. Close 2nd - Superman.

 

[tigerballs]

He is head coach at one of the leading England Super League teams

Going from that to an assistant holding Benji’s hand at the 4 time spoonersis probably not all that appealing

Money talks

 

[Tom Shines]

Money talks

Apparently we got Richo working three jobs … we can’t afford to pay an assistant coach overs

1000 percent oh we are playing our props as locks and it's a shit idea.

A great idea is to sing a half and make him play lock.... I cannot understand the logic.

The best idea would to sign an actual f....ING lock .......

Case in point. Latu is a 7. Why the fark would you play him at lock.

Could he play lock. Yeah probs.

But what was he brought here to play and what’s his best spot? 7

You don’t buy a hatchback thinking it will achieve the same as a 4x4 and drive it as such.

Second to that, Benji has no credibility to show he can teach players to adapt to other positions.

 

[AmericanHistoryX]

He has credibility. Just no wisdom. Benji still young himself. What does he know about life? Is he past 40 yet?

 

[Merlot]

??

Huh?

The next coach needs to be seen so that Benji gets a jump and thinks about the team more then holidays.

Benji showed his disdain for the camera's last night - like a pro, Thought it was very unbecoming of him .Posing about

News Flash, it’s not uncommon for players to change position and excel at their new position.
I won’t go into detail and rattle off the many current NRL players that have changed position somewhere along their journey, but as a snapshot Cameron Munster was a fullback, now captaining Queensland as a 5/8, Harry Grant a halfback now playing hooker, Isaiah Yeo a centre now playing 13, Bailey Hayward a halfback now playing 13, Kurt Mann a fullback now playing 13, Connelly Lemuelu a fullback now playing back row.

 

[tig_prmz]

Everyone's comments really baffle me.

We need a lock, we need a centre, we need a halfback etc etc...

We need better coaches, better admin, better support staff. We need to invest more money into grassroots, into academies and into junior coaches.

WE are not a one town team like Cronulla, Manly, Newcastle etc nor do we have godfathers like Roosters, Dogs etc.b

We had someone wanting be our godfather and drove him out of the place.
He was too arrogant and too controlling, hmmm that reminds me of Nick.
We are only ever 4-5 smart signings away from being a substantially bettter team regardless who is coaching us.
The frustrating part is those 4-5 smart signings never seem to happen no matter who we have driving our recruitment & retention.

Yep I get that but look at the coaches that are coaching them.

They’re not rookie coaches.

Benji hasn’t earned the right to teach a player to play in another position.
