  • Better footy brain that BA. Do it! Do it!

  • Maybe give the club a call mate. Cause I don't think Flanagan is being considered at all.  
    People doubt the Bennett rumour but Flanagan is an absolute no go. 

  • You forgot:

    • Pumped the team full of peptides so they'd perform above their pay packets
    • Was over the cap in 2015 AND in 2017 but miraculously (absolutely not just the NRL saving face) was fine during their Premiership win in 2016

    I'd entertain the thought of him on the extended staff as a brains trust, but he's shown he hasn't got the moral compass or intestinal fortitude needed to be a (rule abiding) head coach.

    • Yea well what's the alternative ? Do we just keep ba and change out his assistants.

      The club had the opportunity to change up the assistants and freshen up our attacking play but so far its been the same line up for many years.

      There are not many other options in the head coaching ranks.  Bennett is a thousand to one and there's nobody else but rookies and coaches who've been sacked

        • Yep, all I know is the less dickheads we've had at the club, the more successful we've been. This goes for our board, administration, players and coaches. I'm quite sure the Board realise this.

          We want folks who show the right behaviours and have the talent to back up their roles. Flanno fails on the behaviours front, we don't want him in leadership.

    • How was that side over the cap???? Plenty of rubbish there...

      • It's not how much they're worth, it's how much you pay. Remember we managed to win a spoon with a team that was over the cap.

  • Actually a pretty ordinary Storm lineup compared to some of the teams they've trotted out.

    Blair

    Green

    Proctor

    Glasby

    Hampton

    All no better than average

    • You mean State of Origin hero Tim Glasby? 😂

  • Not only that but they were drugged to the eyeballs to get every once of muscle and stamina into their bodies leading up to it. No thanks on Flanagan. 

    We need to go out for a 7 time premiership winning coach thats available next year.
