As we head rapidly towards the silly season with nothing useful to discuss for months, here’s a stat to mull over…

Old man Bennett has coached against 106 first grade rivals. Against most he has a strong winning record. 31 have never beaten Bennett in a single match( including Jack Gibson,Roy Masters and…sigh! Teddy Glossop).

Not surprisingly, Bellamy stands out as an exception to the rule, with a phenomenal 74.4% win record over Bennett across 39 games.

But whose record is even better than Bellamy’s?
Better than 74.4%? Is it possible?
Surely not Hasler? The Wok? Bozo Fulton?

Nope. None of these.

It’s none other than our distinguished assistant defensive coach, David Furner.
He’s pipped Bellyache at a dizzying 75%.

Only 8 games you say? Small sample size?

Rubbish! Naysayers! It’s time for Gus (his own win record of 52.7% dwarfed pitifully by the son of Don) to face the uncomfortable truth…Barrett (a solitary win and a woeful 16.7%) has to make way, and Furner be given the keys to The Kennel.

What a crock of Sh!t

Do some research.

When did Roy Masters, Ted Glossop & Jack Gibson stop coaching? then have a look when Bennet made his debut as a FG coach on his own without Don Furner.

This is either a Troll or just clickbait.

Whoa relax fellas.

You missed my first line.

You think I seriously believe that Furner should be anywhere near a FG coaching gig again, let alone with the Dogs?

Or that Gould should sack Barrett?

I’m taking the piss from stats in a centrespread story in today’s Tele.

Thought it might be good for a laugh as an alternative to the Sunday comics for the kids.

I'd rather have his father coach us even in his current condition.
