Why didn't we sign Benji for 12 months?

I guarantee you if we had Benji this season, we would have at least 2 wins so far.
He would have been great for Flanno and would have given us something in attack and made more use of Allen, Cotrik and DWZ.
Even if got Burton early, he would have been a very handy number 14.
What an epic fail in regards to recruitment.

Why didn’t we sign grant on loan last season when we needed a hooker lol instead of him going tigers?
lol I know it’s irrelevant now, but it just came to my mind for some reason

Massive fail not getting him

Because it seems the fans know more about footy then this stupid club thease days. Why we got rid of cook in the first place is the biggest question. This club has been nothing but shit for years and continues in being so. Congrats on all the sponsors from head management but my god we are aweful at everything football which is ironic. Thought footy was meant to be entertaining

Benji would be shit for us.

Why didn't we sign an experienced first grade coach with a respectable win percentage?

 

[KoolDavid]

Benji behind our current pack lol

 

[Scoooby]

when it first became talk I was quick to say bring him here for a year to be with his bro , an help out our pack. Would have snagged a win in game 1 and a win tonight.

This is on the money. Burton wanted to come, they thought Panthers would let him go. It is obvious considering we kept a spot open in the top 30 until it was finally announced he wasn't coming early.

It sucks as we would have definitely gone better with him and he could coach our young halves, but ultimately it isn't a long term thing so not really that bad.

Even so, he could have been a 14 and insurance for injury.
He would have also been with his brother.

Benji is shit. Struggles to make an impact in a star studded south’s team. South’s can’t win a comp with him. He’s purely there for the odd game mid year when the stars are missing

Uhm, still far far superior than Avarillo, Flanno and Lewis.

 

[KLil]

WHY DIDNT WE SIGN LAURIE WHEN BARRETT WAS BASICALLY COACHING HIM!!

Yeah that’s true. I guess we were moving forward assuming these players would have improved by now. Yet there going backwards......

Hindsight is a wonderful thing

 

[Moedogg]

It's crazy to place so much trust in 2 inexperienced halves to steer us.
