Here’s a rumour going around.

Fitz has asked Wayne Bennett to come on as a coaching consultant for the sharks for next season.

I would all be for that if it’s true. Thoughts?
Likely just as good in the role as Bellamy was

in that I don't think it will actually happen

No reason to think it wouldn't be a good thing if it did happen though, but not holding my breath

Would only help.... across the board, you'd think. Might snag us a few extra signings along the way to helping Fitz become the next super coach. He has good relationships with quality players.

Would be a great idea, and could probably handle that alongside the NZ gig if he got it.

I reckon they have similar personalities as well.

That would be among the 5 best things to ever happen to this joint .

I'd be stoked.

Well the original plan was to have Bellamy oversee Fitz and Ciraldo - would love to see Wayne help out, but yeah I unfortunately doubt it.

Pretty sure it's all a media beat up, but I'd have him here. Bhu to the Wahs and we can get Lolo with the cows chipping in 300k. Sign me up.

Too much training dragging tractor tyres.

I'd put him on one of those treadmills that keeps going faster until you fall off.

Too much playing dragging cowboys

Think he's just about done, 10 yrs was stupid, not his fault, Townsend same.
Think Townsends contract is okay - def an overpay but they did what they had to do.
Should smoothly transition to Dearden in 7 next year.

Chad at Cows has won more finals than we have since he left so while we weren't and still aren't disappointed to see the back of him, contract has so far worked out okay for Cows

JT13 contract... well I don't think anyone will be shocked if that doesn't smoothly just roll through the full 10 years without anything happening or it being questioned a bunch.
