Message: [QUOTE="Lockysillegitimatechild, post: 2869592, member: 8814"] This stuff just infuriates me with the media these days... we get they want an alternative to Bennett (7 vs 1, success at rep level vs abysmal failure, premierships at different clubs with multiple generations of players rather then just 1 generation that was built around 1-3 players and they stayed together due to cheating massively) but to imply Bellamy was Walters mentor and he learned everything from him is just plain wrong and pathetic... Walters won 5 premierships with Bennett, played ALL his professional football under him, was captain under him, assistant coach at 2 clubs on 3 different occasions, still seeks his counsel.... Bellamy had him as an assistant for 2 years and played with him at Canberra for 1 year...... Bellamy has lost 100% of his origin series (3/3) without smith, won 1 out of 3 country origin games, lost a grand final by a record margin without scoring a point, has a 25% winning record without him and has won ONE legitimate premiership in 15 years. Good coach, but get smith out of his team and he wouldn't make the top 4 ANY year or win ANY premierships, FACT. Take ANY immortal out of bennetts sides and he'd still find a way to win at least 4-5 in those years (dragons 2010, sacking Wally Lewis and the 2015 gf proved this).. minor premierships mean nothing in 2 years, ask the roosters, it's good to have your team up there to have a better chance but year after year he wears his team out. Watch the Blake green interview and you'd see Bellamy would have worn the team out of the top 8 every year if it wasn't for smith, he's a polished version of Ricky Stuart who struck gold with a once in a lifetime leader/on field coach in smith.... over the hype he gets by the media just to make out Bennett hasn't achieved much [/QUOTE]
