Message: [QUOTE="1910, post: 2690498, member: 8272"] WAYNE Bennett's presence at the North Ipswich Reserve to watch the Ipswich Jets for at least the third time this season last weekend proves the master coach sticks to the principles that made him the most decorated mentor in the history of the game. It also shows how seriously he takes the Jets' feeder club relationship with the Broncos and how successful the club has been keeping up its end of the bargain. Bennett was at the Jets game against Souths Logan to run an eye over a number of Jets players, most notably prop Rod Griffin, who could be on the verge of a Broncos call up given the season ending injury to Josh McGuire last start against Newcastle. "He's buying into our passion and the belief that we are capable of producing quality rugby league players," Jets chairman Steven Johnson said. The proof could be seen in Jets and Broncos hooker Matt Parcell. It was decided in consultation with the Jets coaches, Bennett and Parcell's dad Steve, that he would be better served playing for the Jets in the Queensland Cup for a couple of seasons than playing for the Broncos in the national under 20 competition. Parcell has since starred for the Broncos in their surge to the top of the National Rugby League (NRL). "Now he's a complete footballer," Johnson said.
