Benji 2025

Processes is a Sheensism

But i dont see where its wrong...if you dont do anything properly (processes) the end result wont be what you want
I think it's a modern-day trendy approach.

You see it in management everywhere, it tries to take the end goal distraction away and keep people adhered to a system.

There's a few problems though.

Firstly, the whole success hinges on the efficacy of the system itself. Who is Benji to have developed a fool-proof set of processes that, if adhered to, will put us competing for premierships? (and I like what's happening so far for the most part). How do we, or the players, know that his methods will, in fact, be successful if executed correctly?

Secondly though, despite what modern approach proponents love to spout, the ONLY thing that matters is outcome. The fact that the same, desired outcome can be reached using an infinite number of methods, whether its winning football games or investing in ETFs or building a garden shed, further indicates that its not in fact the processes that matter, but the outcome.

If a process leads to a successful outcome, then it's been shown to work.

As much as I appreciate what Benji tries to do with his messaging around learning processes, he could learn a thing or two from, paradoxically, the Roosters' set up. They have shown that if it gets them in the title hunt, regardless of the plan or process, they'll pivot and chase a new direction to win.
 
Question - If Benji keeps attracting players to the club…does that help you to overlook some of his other (ahem) deficiencies?

I’m kinda getting the feeling he will be here next year now …regardless what happens on the field rest of this season

You can't win on the pitch if you can't win in the Transfer market. Having players wanting to play for Benji is by far the best thing going for him. (For now).

I think it's all worth it. A lot of the great sides of the last decade needed at least 4 seasons to get truly up and running, and that's without all our infamy and reputation on their shoulders. I'd also love to see Benji get his chance until it's absolutely CERTAIN that it's run its course and it's time to change, and that if the trigger gets pulled it's not acrimonious.

It's good to see the club talk about the refs a bit more in a gamesmanship sense. If we finish the seasons with some wins and without any extra abysmal joke defeats I'll be very happy.
