Message: [QUOTE="Sproj, post: 2952950, member: 8423"] I actually agree with you mostly. I was not really for Bennett coming back in the first place and I also don't have the confidence in him that I used to pre-departure. I do think he'll get the side to the finals but they just don't have the ability to go the extra level required that a Souths / Panthers / Storm can and that inbalance in the squad is purely down to Bennett and the recruitment / retention team. I also would love for Bennett to go into a supervising role and also think it is the best option, but I don't think it is the only logical option. The guy could well coach until he is 75 for all we know but in any case, he could still likely go for another two to three years in his role if need be. I certainly don't think (as others, not necessarily you) that as suggested, he needs to be or even is being pushed out the door. The best available and younger coach was seemingly available, it makes absolute sense to chase him. He is no longer available, so there is still time to choose the next best option, even if that is a rookie coach. The two logical factors in this choice are - 1. Do NOT panic buy and 2. Do NOT push Bennett out the door completely, he still has PLENTY to offer in a mentoring / welfare role. [/QUOTE]
