| Quote: MorePlaymakersNeeded "We didn't pick the strongest squad to start with, and had either players who were out of form or out of position (sometimes both).
So much for smooth succession when you lose all four games. Bennett neither bothered with taking our strongest squad to the airport, nor bothered giving everyone in the squad game time. We got zip out of this tour, and the biggest lesson everyone's learned from it is that Bennett should be fired.'"
Correct |

Not necessarily true, he got us to a world cup final and won a series against NZ.
His position is pretty untenable as the GB coach now, but up until this season, he did take us forward. |

In fairness to McNamara he got us within one play of a WC final and also beat NZ in a test series at home so if Bennett took us forward it was minimal. |

And possibly piggy backing the good work done by McNamara.
I'm struggling to get over just how poor GB were yesterday, a result that would have been unimaginable until the start of the series.
Not wishing to be disrespectful about PNG, who fully deserved their win but, they are a "tier 2" RL nation, only there "to make the numbers up". |

Yep and we only just won the World Cup semi on a disputable call after collapsing in the last 15 minutes shipping points for fun against a tier 2 nation. |

Fox sports news in Australia are defending Wayne Bennett stating that he did not select the G.B squad,apparently this was done by Sinfield and Peacock.

I love Sinfield as a player, but everything he has touched since then has turned into a disaster.

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif |

i dont think the players are as bad as this farce looks.... with a British coach (probably Wane) behind them... This team, with the right players selected, could be a strong outfit.
Not one single players was happy on this tour. That's all down to bennett.
