A lot of Bronco fans think that something has happened.

He was on a contract but was only paid out for 3 months and part of the deal was to keep quiet on why he was sacked? Very odd time to sack a coach too.

get bennett there before brisbane 2 gets him the year after?

Smellmyfinger to coach Broncs?

They'd still have Bennett if they agreed to his plans.

Henjak's assistent Anthony Griffin has been given the job on a 1 year deal.
I bet Bennett is back there for 2012, Souths and Rusty will be sick.

Lockyer?

I think Rusty knows he can't get Bennett.

Crap gig to follow Bennett though. It would need to be a Bellamy type character to go to Brisbane, someone who is a strong personality and has a history of recent success.

they will be after either bennett or bellamy

this was done because brisbane 2 said they want bennett

except brisbane 2 cant come in before 2013 whilst bennetts dragons contract expires this year so the broncos can get him for next year

he still owns shares in the broncos club

id put money on him going there

tim sheens or ricky stuart.

This wasn't done for Bennett, why sack Henjak now and not the end of the year?

brisbane 2 came out yesterday saying they want bennett as coach. since they cant come in till 2013 the broncos can snatch him early

bellamy is under contract he probably wont leave storm, the players dont want stuart

and its become clear this offseason bennett is leaving the dragons

the broncos realize theres a good chance to get him

Now Cullen has left the Broncos, nothing is standing in the way of a Bennett return. I'm not sure he would go back though.

There is no logic at all linking getting Bennett back for next season and sacking Henjak now. Brisbane could have Wayne signed and seasled for next year, and there'd still be no need to sack Henjak for this season.

Also, despite rumours that Henjak has 'done' something, the fact that the Chairman (someone I used to work for many years ago) has quit effectively in protest speaks volumes - i.e. he belives Henjak has been shafted.

Despite what Lockyer has said I think this has come down purely and simply to Henjak's unpopularity amongst the players. What exactly has brought this to a head now I have no idea, but the Broncos frankly look foolish trying to claim it is as a result of a review of last year.

br i have thought the club had in their minds round 6 to get rid of him

maybe hes had an argument with lockyer now

but it seems very likely they are clearing the decks for wayne

as with bennetts proposed move to the roosters when he would only go once theyd sacked stuart, he probably wouldnt want to go there till henjacks future was decided

cant see bennett going anywhere other than brisbane broncos or the new brisbane club

perhaps also the broncos are scared of bennett going to the new bid and them losing the number 1 spot in brisbane

getting bennett for the new bid would be a big coup

twitter.com/TripleM_NRL# bennetts return to the broncos a formality for 2012 provided board members related to his 2008 removal from the club leave

Not really a formality then.

I'll probably end up with egg on my face but I think Bennett is more likely to coach the new Brisbane team or even Souths instead of going back to his old stomping ground. He's achieved everything with the Bronx, there's no challenge for him there.

id say broncos are strong favourites to get bennett back

Maybe they will also get back to the 40k average attendances you claimed they had?

They managed it for one year in their entire history







Hardly the norm

and the fall started before the split if I am not mistaken?

Yet another Dally pearl of wisdom!!

We need another Bennett or Brisbane coaching thread.

This is what Bennett proposed to the Broncos board when he was still there.

is they clear off bruno cullen who is still around in some capacity bennett will be back there in 2012

otherwise the new brisbane bid will get him for 2013 and the broncos cant afford to give their rival such a leg up
