Message: [QUOTE="Unbreakable, post: 3323951, member: 8290"] The rot started when Bennett was here. I said it at the time as well, you only need to look at our defensive numbers on a year-to-year basis, it all unravelled in 2018. You can blame the Broncos handling of the Bennett situation for the drop off, but I don't buy it. The numbers were already trending way down before that media circus even started. Bennett & White both hamstrung us with a bunch of shit contracts, at that stage, it wouldn't have mattered which coach came in, it was always going to take a couple of years [I]minimum[/I] to undo the damage done. Unfortunately for us, we chose a rookie coach who crumbled under the pressure, lost some of our best young talent, and messed up our cap even further. We then backed that up by signing yet another rookie coach. We're starting to see some signs of life now, but it's taken 3 full seasons to repair the state of affairs that Bennett, White and to a lesser extent Seibold left us in. Long way to go as well. Bennett era - 2015 - 3rd best defence in the comp 2016 - 4th best defence in the comp 2017 - 4th best defence in the comp 2018 - 10th best defence in the comp Seibold era - 2019 - 11th best defence in the comp 2020 - 16th best defence in the comp Walters era - 2021 - 13th best defence in the comp [/QUOTE]
