Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2979691, member: 1769"] Personally i think it is time to move on from Bennett, although i would like to see him serve out the final year of his contract in 2019. so let's look at the contenders to be the next coach of the greatest rugby league empire on the planet: [B]Kevin Walters: [/B] [LIST] [*]Current QLD State of Origin coach [*]Assistants to both Bennett and Bellamy [*]Knows the Broncos culture and expectations [/LIST] Personally, I'm not sold on Walters. I didn't like much of what i have seen of him in Origin and his top grade record in the ESL was pretty poor. [B]Michael Maguire:[/B] [LIST] [*]Assistant to Bellamy [*]Premierships: Wigan (2010); Souths (2014) [*]Challenge cup champions (2011) [*]Won WCC and Auckland Nines in 2015 [*]Current NZ coach [/LIST] As far as candidates go, he has an impressive record. my only concern with him is will his intensity burn out the players like it did at the end of his Rabbitohs stint. if he has learned his lessons from that, then he could be exactly what this team needs [B]Anthony Seibold:[/B] [LIST] [*]Worked as an assistant to Bellamy [*]current QLD Assistant coach [*]current Dally M "Coach of the Yeat" [*]Finalists in his first season at the Rabbitohs [/LIST] For me, it may be a bit early to look at Seibold, I have liked what i have seen from him this year, but 1 year doesn't make a career [B]Jason Demetriou:[/B] [LIST] [*]Current Broncos assistant to Bennett [*]Assistant to Paul Green in their premiership year [*]ISC Minor premierships (2013, 2014) [*]ISC Premiership (2014) [*]ISP Pemiership (2016) [*]NRL State Champions (2014, 2016) [/LIST] An impressive lower grade record, but the big question is will that translate to the top grade. He will get his chance one day, but after the failures of Henjak and Griffin, the club needs to go with an experienced first grade mentor IMO [B]Verdict:[/B] Michael Maguire looks to be out best option, if he has learned his lessons. He has also reportedly just turned down a big money offer from the Sea Eagles. [/QUOTE]
