If it turns out that the Eels board sat on their hands and didn't do everything in their power to get Bennett to the Eels (as a coach), they are the problem and need to go. It doesn't take a genius to workout that there is a long term problem at the Eels in junior pathways, retention and coaching. All of the above are things that the board are responsible for either directly or indirectly.
If the board can't fix those long term issues, they are the problem. It is that simple.
Until the Eels get a board that don't accept mediocracy, how can we possibly have a team that aren't mediocore?
Tough times call for tough calls/measures/decisions. Do we have a board who is able to do that?
After 30yrs of infighting, cap scandles and no premierships we need people who don't know how to lose and don't accept failure.
I hope this board can understand that but if not, thanks for your service, leave the building so we can find those that can.
That starts with getting Bennett at a coaching level.
Bennett coming to Parra is a dream at this point. Id be very surprised if he does.
Lack of forward planning continues to be the club downfall. All this talk of Souths and JD, at least Souths appear to be doing something. Our leadership are as stubborn as the coach. The club knows that they will need to spend big money chasing a premiership, something they have no interest in as long as the books keep showing positive profit/loss
That's probably right and I'll add that the last thing these board members, MON & Sarantinos wants is someone like Bennett coming in exposing how poorly run the football department actually is.
Can't have that now, they still want to have a career after Parra
"If the Eels didn't have Bennett locked up, what was the point in letting BA go so early in the season?
If the Eels board put someone in who isn't able to get the Eels back into premiership contention within the next 18 months, they all need to go…"

Maybe it's Ryles we are after ?

I am actually turning my view to the thought that the board regardless wont go for Bennett. Main reason? They don't someone coming in wanting demands.
100%
why would they willingly bring someone on board who is going to challenge them?

We're the club of dumb protecting dumb. Little concern for results, just 2 sides both protecting their jobs.
If the South Sydney board were in charge of Parramatta then Brad Arthur would have been sacked at the end of 2015 given the results that year.
Probably and if not then, then 10000% after 2018.
