So Politis is 'celebrating' 25years as Rorter$ chairman and the rugby league world is pissing in his pocket. The SMH and the usual pro Roosters journalists like Webster & Weidler have all done their usual Politis butt licking articles.
Different Roosters figures have all given their own insight into moments they remember.
What I thought was funny was the story of Chris Anderson as Roosters coach who was appointed after Bennett changed his mind when the story of his move to the Rorter$ got leaked.
Here what Fenessy said:
The only time I’ve seen Nick really angry is when he couldn’t find Chris Anderson to sack him because Chris was on the golf course. Wayne Bennett famously agreed to coach us in our 100th year and then it got out and there was a story in theCourier-Mail.
So Bennett backflipped. Nick hasn’t spoken to him since. We were into the pre-season and Anderson was hastily appointed and it was a disaster. Remember how he didn’t want second markers? We were belted 52-0 in the first match of the year against Souths. It went from bad to worse.
When we’d lose, Chris would give the players four days off and play golf. The last straw was when we lost at Brookvale but Nick couldn’t sack him the next day because he was playing golf!
One of the worst coaching appointments in our history.
