Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3148315, member: 1899"] I can when it comes to building a roster, just about every player Hook brought in was shown the door straight after. He stuck solid with a core roster, most of which had been around when Bennett was coaching. He didn't arrange to cut the roster, that was Henjak and he paid the price despite getting them to turn a corner before Lockyer got injured. This team needs to get out of the doldrums, not twiddle it's thumbs for the next 3 years. Penrith were already on their way. Ivan came into break the team down and start fresh with their new crop of juniors who began to come through their system in 2014. When that process was complete and Gould felt he used Ivan up for everything he was worth so he brought in the next coach, Hook because he was using the Broncos development system as a basis for the Panthers operation. However, Gus learned the hard way that Griffin was a limited coach and that the club would be in a constant state of rebuilding. They were loading Griffin up with talent, who would use them up and they'd have to shift them off to Cronulla and the Gold Coast because they weren't getting any better at Penrith. Sure their record wasn't THAT bad, but a lot of their wins were incredibly unconvincing. So often they wouldn't come into the game until they were down more than two converted tries and they couldn't afford that against the top teams. [/QUOTE]
