Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3668103, member: 9052"] Not sure if you've realised but the game has changed a fair bit since Alfie was chip and chasing, and Kevvie was retiring at the turn of the millennium. Reynolds is currently having to spend time preparing himself for the weekend and not entirely on coaching the halves... but he's played his entire career in the current modern league that has formed since the mid-00's (wrestling, split halves, etc.). I cant recall any former one club Broncos being a successful coach anywhere... I'm probably missing an obvious one, but Lockyer, Wally, Thorn, Kevvie, Alfie, etc. have been unable to pass on their knowledge despite being amazing players.. compare that to a nobody player like Matt Johns that created his media career basically off the back of being a specialist halves coach for hire. Maybe that suggests that Broncos over the generations have been mostly playing heads up footy, not a lot of structure and Bennett's super basic one out hitups, but relying on bend not break defence and star individuals to get them home. As a club they've basically refused to adapt to the modern game and continue to live off archaic ideals of "what" the club should be... coach has to be Qld, cant have NSW players, etc. and the game is leaving them in the dust. Reynolds is like the first footy minded player that the club can actually utilise after he retires and instead they're allowing the public and the media to push him out of the club. [/QUOTE]
