NEWS Talks commence on Bennett-Seibold swap

[Stix]

He will be getting a million bucks. He can do it with dignity at Souths. In case you forget we got beat by 30 pts 48-18 in front of 45k+ in the last game he was head coach of the Brisbane Broncos. No dignity in that.

Lol, good point...

Yes, it is absolutely 100% untenable. I really don't see a world where it's not. I've been using Telstra as my example, if the CEO there took another job as the CEO of Optus, starting in a year, the moment Telstra were aware, the board would walk him out and say cya later. It's a MASSIVE conflict of interest.

I also get what you are saying and in the corporate world you are 100% correct, but this has happened here before. In March 2008 he signed to coach St George for three years. The world did not end, Bennett wasn't found in the still of the night pilfering cookies from the cookie jar. In fact, but for Ashton fucking Sims we might have made the grand final and won it that year. Other than the difference in timing, and the fact two coaches are effectively swapping position, how is the current scenario any different?

Our new coaches team didn't get thrashed in any one of the 3 games they played in the finals ... in fact their biggest loss was only 8 points at the hands of the eventual premiers.

we lost by 30 points to a team that our new coach defeated in the finals
