I think if Flanno coached Brisbane from 1988 to 2008 with the teams Bennett had at his disposal, he would have won as many comps as Bennett did.Bennett hasn 't won a comp since 2011. Flanno last won a comp in 2016. Flanno also took Cronulla from a team missing the semi's to a team that made the semis regularly.

I don't agree with the signing of Leilua for 900K a season, but we must have had a lot of salary cap space and nowhere better to spend it.

Gutho and Cook are good for our leadership, which we were lacking in and again, who else could we have signed instead.

I can pretty much guarantee you, DA won't be signing anyone who Flanno doesn't want. Yes, Flanno can concentrate on coaching and let DA do the job of recruitment and also go and scout juniors. DA does look like an astute signing. Kyle Stanley also looks to be doing a good job of scouting young talent.

Hi Frank

I think you mentioned the year 2011 in another post. The year that Bennett last won the comp was in 2010 and not 2011. 2011 was the last year that Bennett coached the Dragons and they finished in 5th place then losing in the qualifying and semi finals to Wests Tigers and Brisbane Broncos respectively.

Ok, well strictly speaking it’s not totally SGI related.

I’ll talk in a cryptic poem riddle thing as I’m not sure it’s public.

I played at SGI
Then I was moved along
At my new club I did say
I was unwanted by Flanno.

My time at my new club was sad
Not so many games
I fell out of favour too early
Alas, it was all in vain.

But I’m only being moved along
To make the extra room
So my club can buy another player
As part of their new broom.

The player is tough had injuries
Now lives near surf so gold
But secret meetings are being held
to bring him back to Sydney cold.

That can do for the moment, there’s two players for you to have a shot at plus 2 clubs involved!

Good luck!

If anyone wants to guess…

I can pm a moderator with the answer to keep me honest at their request. But they need to swear on the memory of Stoney not to reveal anything. That’s a pretty sacred vow I’d say.

First player:

Hark the herald angels sing
I’m nice to fans
Where I lived

Shackle wackle
Lurgle Pop
About round 8
I was dropped

I grew up and left that place
utility is no disgrace.

Second Player

I’ve been around the traps a bit
But no rep jersey in my kit

Sleazy secret car park deals
Not a volksman flight
With injury to conceal.
