Message: [QUOTE="WASSHHH, post: 2992373, member: 9424"] You touch on a very pertinent point throughout this post that I think a lot of people are overlooking. The Broncos, as the employer, set the rules of Bennett’s (and all their other staff for that matter) employment. If the Broncos allow Bennett to work with the QLD, Australia, NZ, the All-Stars or the English teams at the same time as coaching the Broncos - that’s their decision to make and should be of no concern to anyone else. With the blessing of the Broncos, in his capacity as coach of any one of those teams, Bennett can do what he likes. But the minute he starts doing anything, anything whatsoever, with the Souths franchise whilst still contracted at the Broncos without their permission - that’s not fine. I really don’t see how it’s that complicated. Further, it has nothing to do with sentiment and everything to do with what is legal. In his 20 odd years as Broncos coach, Bennett hasn’t earned the right to be working (in any capacity) with one of the Broncos direct competitors whilst still under contract with the Broncos, not to mention the fact that this competitor is the very same one he would soon be coaching on a permanent basis (proposed 2020). That fact only makes his behaviour even worse. But if people are so hung up on allowing sentiment to influence their position on this because “Bennett helped build the Broncos”; I’d like to know how those same people felt when Bennett almost pulled a SBW to leave for the Roosters. He didn’t seem to care too much about the club, his players, his support staff or the fans then. Now that the club has, according to some, done the dirty on Bennett; why are these people willing to hold the club entirely responsible for what’s transpired, seemingly forgetting Bennett came very close to abandoning the club at the eleventh hour when it suited him to do so?
