Wayne Bennet was an average winger, pretty elite coach though, Bellamy was a fringe first grade 5/8 , he also goes ok.. I do get your logic though. I hope he learnt from experience and the coaches he played under.. Benji is a thinker , and competitive,and definitely a Tiger
He’s too flashy
I have never heard benji or sheens saying you need to earn the right to go wide
One of my mates is mates with benji and apparently after the first 5or 6 losses benji told him those were his fault for trying to be too expansive.
Him and sheens are self admitting offensive minded coaches
They’ve said it
Whereas you listen to Billy slater … he says go hard and simple and then go wide
Even Webster the warriors coach on NRL 360 the other day said he keeps it really really simple
We have Robbie doing attack out of our end zone
Benji doing attack in their end zone
Sheens saying you have to use the ball
And the only guy doing D is david furner … out of 4 coaches.
It’s been sheens benji and Robbie Achilles heel and why we never consistently made the top 8 from 2005 to when they both retired
Making the finals 3 times in like 15 years!
All because they just don’t do the simple stuff
Look at the dolphins and Wayne Bennet
I guarantee if Bennet was coaching us we would be in the 8 with this team
