Message: [QUOTE="Morkel, post: 2992917, member: 8215"] I'll address the rest later, but the bold bits are the crux of why I believe your stance is hypocritical. If the Broncos are entitled to move Bennett on, they were similarly entitled to move Griffin on. However I understand that's not why you didn't like what happened - it's because Bennett effectively gave the club an ultimatum, if they wanted him coaching them again, it would be at Griffin's expense. However, you're ignoring the facts of the time. Bennett's contract with the Knights was null and void. In fact, IIRC, his contract was actually with Tinkler's company (Hunter Sports Group???), and when Tinkler was rightfully booted, Bennett was a free agent. He wanted to coach the Broncos again, and isn't the sort to take a one-year caretaker role anywhere because it's in neither his or that club's interests. So while it sucked for Griffin, it was the logical path. Just as it is a logical path for Bennett & Seibold to swap immediately. But in the same way, it involves Bennett being terminated before his contract is up. If you believe Griffin was hard done by by Bennett's decision, then logic dictates you should believe that Bennett was hard done by by the Broncos & Souths decision. [/QUOTE]
