<big>Boyd could follow Bennett out of Dragons</big>
AAP October 6, 2010, 11:10 am
The demand for extending Wayne Bennett’s contract at St George Illawarra is getting louder, with Clive Churchill medal winner Darius Boyd admitting he could quit the NRL club if his mentor leaves.Bennett, who is off contract at the Dragons at the end of 2011, has been linked to a move back to his home state of Queensland, possibly reuniting with the Brisbane Broncos where he won six premierships.
And if he does choose to leave, Boyd admits he might not be too far behind.
“I’ve only really had him as a coach … I really couldn’t see myself under anyone else,” the Queensland Origin star told Rugby League Week.
"He’s a great man and a great coach and he’s been great for my career off the field as well.
"I don’t know, I owe him a lot and I’m very proud to be part of the success of this club as well.
“(So) in saying that, the Dragons club has been a great club and won a premiership so … I’ll just wait and see what happens, I suppose.”
Dragons players continued to apply pressure to the 2010 NRL premiers, demanding “the best coach in the history of the game” be re-signed.
“Wayne has proved himself to be the best coach in the history of the game - bar none,” trumpeted five-eighth Jamie Soward.
"He has put the belief into the group and he brought us all together and made us the team we are.
“I want to play out my career here - but I want to do it under Wayne.”

Pretty smart by Boyd, were Benett goes the premierships will follow.

That’s exactly right. A player that plays his entire career in a Bennett coached team will probably win 3 or 4 premierships.

Well you are talking about the Clive Churchill medalist….they don’t just hand them out in Cornflakes packets do they…
He is also likely to be in the Test team somewhere…

Boyd is a sook, hes just like a spoilt brat if he doesnt get anything his own way he’ll pack the shits…
Overated player to me anywho lucky the Storm and billy slater werent in the finals, Boyd would be choking on the dirt being flicked up from Slaters boots! St George Cheats… -
Boyd reminds me of the retarded kid at school that would do ANYTHING for 5 cents.

This situation is quite bazzar considering the lack of Discipline Darius displayed while at Brisbane and last years off season…
I don’t understand how Wayne has always ignored his off field behaviour?

I have a couple of friends who live down in the gong’ and one of them often bumps into Bennett at church, Darious on the other hand quite often has parties in his beachfront apartment with some good sorts filtering in and out of his place. I really can’t see him staying at the Dragons long-term.

Because he rates him, Bennet is known for it. Why do you think Tallis fell out with him?

True Simon, but if Bennett was ever a small chance to take over from Sheens, I wouldn’t be complaining if Boyd was in tow.

Exactly right, double standards all the way with Wayne depending on your ability. Great coach though, no question.

Last time I checked he was a football coach, not a life coach.
