Message: [QUOTE="lynx000, post: 2609132, member: 2065"] I have followed this debate with much interest. I don't know how much weight can be given to your opinion re that we would not have been a powerhouse in 2012/13. I would agree but only based on the assumption that the two squads remained about the same. I have real doubt that Bennett would not have planned for life post Lockyer by having a marquee signing on the books to go somewhere near to filling his boots. I don't know if WB's second coming is a good or bad thing, and at the end of the day, our opinions matter nought. I will simply wait and watch with interest as to where it all goes. I also had not fully given up on Griffin. I remember that it took Bennett and Bellamy similar amounts of time to win their first titles (4-5 years) and both of them had better squads than Griffin. He may have come good, and the main thing is that it seems that the majority of the squad loved playing for him. We will never know now, unless he pulls out a miracle this season. My consistent view has been that the Club has failed miserably in succession planning for life post WB (first time around) and life post Lockyer and that has placed us where we are. [/QUOTE]
