Despite widespread speculation, the club has been consistent in asserting that Bennett will see out his contract in 2019 - and has been preparing for the season as such. Broncos Chairman Karl Morris met with Bennett today to again state that fact, with the club releasing the following statement after the meeting: "Wayne Bennett is our coach for 2019, as we have stated repeatedly over the past year." If follows a public statement by Morris on September 25 this year, saying he and Bennett "agreed the coach would see out his current contract to the end of 2019".

[URL]https://www.broncos.com.au/news/2018/10/31/broncos-announce-coaching-future/[/URL] Speaking after today's meeting, Bennett told nrl.com.au: "I had a meeting with the Chairman this morning and I asked him what was happening in 2019 and he said 'nothing has changed Wayne. I gave you a commitment you would be here in 2019 and that is the way it is going to remain'. "This is a young team and it is going to be exciting. It will be a challenge in what is a long footy season but they have got some games behind them now some of those younger players. I am pretty optimistic we can have a good season and with a bit of luck who knows what we can do. "It was always sorted out in my mind. I had never wavered about the fact that I did not want to leave the Broncos but it is nice that the chairman has said again, as he did in the past, that I am here until 2019. "There were a lot of rumours and innuendo flying around but the bottom line is that he has put that to rest and we can all move forward." [/QUOTE]
