Message: [QUOTE="GCBRONCO, post: 2610012, member: 1808"] Taking a side to their first grand final in his first NSWRL season and laying the foundation for coming premierships is quite an achievement, he also coached a number of those players in the Brisbane competition prior to that where he won a premiership with Souths and took them to a grand final prior to that against Wynnum Manly which was considered the rep side of the Brisbane in the Brisbane competiton. As for the Broncos, they underachieved in their first two seasons(managed to win the panasonic cup), made it to the semi finals in 1990 and won the reserve grade final, the seeds of success were planted through that period though and the majority of those in their first grade premiership winning side in 1992 were developed under Wayne Bennett, including two of the Walters brothers(of who'm only one of those had played for another club prior to the Broncos and that was under Bennett). They may not have done as well as predicted, but he showed during that period he was willing to make very tough decisions with the roster and the best interests of the club and they certainly were heading in the right direction and Bennett had said when he joined the club it was a 5 year goal to their first premiership which he achieved. Anyway mate we could argue this for days and really it gets us nowhere, how about we just agree to disagree? [/QUOTE]
