Boyd said that he wouldn’t follow Wayne to any other club this late in his career.
 
If we did sign wayne, I'd assume Demetriou would follow him too. Followed him up to Brisbane from the dragons.
 
NO, NO, NO to Bennett been around to long , no real interest in the Tiger's, us helping other clubs solve their problems again, left the Knights in very poor shape, will get homesick for Qld at any time, BIG $ we don't need to spend. Lets Ivan contract run and if he doesnt extend choose our own coach who has the tigers at heart even if he is a newby

Please make it happen Tigers, I feel Bennett has unfinished business and will definitely attract quality players with him.

I hope this speculation and mess gets cleared up before pre-season :sign:

Thats the worst idea.
Ivan is mentally out the door. He wont be recruiting good players for us. Just letting the clock run down is a recipe for more seasons of failure.
No way he should be around for another season.

As I assumed that things would speed up after the grand final. Interesting times ahead. Hopefully everything sorted before training resumes.

x2 :crazy
 
I don't like Bennett for us - it's very short term and I don't think he's interested in building a team. Maguire is a better option for us to steady our ship and recruit long term.
 
In sure Triguboff can help set Wayne up in a nice penthouse somewhere :wink:
 
The Bennett factor includes a lot of positives not just coaching .. player recruitment …corporate appeal =sponsors.... stability for the club moving forward.
The Newcastle debacle was really to do with external problems more than anything , Bennett is a bit long in the tooth but comes with a lifetime of knowledge and experience and is a winner . This is probably another Fake news story but a good one .

Im sick of just long term planning in building a team. Let's focus on the now aswell.

Oates is a massive Bennett fan and may follow. On a sidenote, if Maguire was offered the Tigers gig and could recruit the support staff he needs, he would take the job.

There is such an upside to Bennett appointment that I think its no brainier if he is willing and able.
Its just the hype around the man, the sponsorship he will bring and possibly the players also.
It would be equal to signing a top line rep player and more ….. for for mine its no contest.

Kinda over the long term aspect of it all. How long have we been waiting already.. Get Wayne in and have a succession plan in place with an assistant that joins him or hodgo.
 
The fact that Bennett failed at the knights may also be an important factor here.
The guy might be driven to prove a few doubters wrong.
And if you call taking a team that were perineal failures to one game of the GF beaten only by the premiers failing well I guess our second most successful period in WestsTigers history 2010&2011 was a massive fail also.

His tweet states last year not remaining years. A good indication that we are set to secure Bennet for 2020!

Getting him earlier will depend on how desperate the Broncos are in securing the next coach. If Siebold re-signs before November than Madge could be a big play for them which they would want to happen sooner than later…

Weidler said the Broncos will want to move Bennett on for 2019\. It appears we have money to spend and with the future of a number of Broncos apparently undecided, let's decide for them.
