Message: [QUOTE="Porthoz, post: 2914847, member: 2221"] His price tag keeps being brought up, but it's Wayne "can do no wrong" Bennett who chose to offer him that million dollars, and then decided to coach out of him what made him worth a million dollars in the first place, by pushing him to do what he clearly can't and is unsuited for. He hasn't had one partner actually capable of taking control of the team at the Broncos. Hunt was the one who came closest to it (2015), but even then it was clear he is also not a game manager or organiser. And without such a player next to him, and a forward pack setting the pace, people are asking miracles he won't be able to deliver. I don't agree he's a one trick pony, but even if he was, it's a trick the opposition can't stop. Agility, elusiveness and speed can't be coached, and he's got spades of it, associated to an above average talent to play the game. That's what is worth the million bucks! Unfortunately, he doesn't have the footy intelligence of a Locky or Thurston to go with it, so asking him to manage the team and a game is a waste, and paraphrasing you, made him a shadow of his former self. Bennett is by far the most responsible for the state the team is in, including Milford, but his past seems to make him immune to criticism, at least to a large amount of people. [/QUOTE]
