Ricky Stuart

Why did we sack him in the first place?
Didn't he get us to 3 consecutive grand finals.
And then we have a bad year and he gets sacked?


I'm sure if Wayne Bennett's team got the wooden spoon 2 or even 3 years in a row I can guarantee that there wouldn't even be rumours of him getting sacked.

Gotta love hindsight.

At the time, Wayne Bennett had agreed to come and suggested it would be "fair" to Ricky to let him go so the chance he will find another club is increased.

Hold onto that thought.

My money is on the team with average coach and the entire queensland junior base available to them finishing well ahead of the "supercoached" team.

Also, Ricky was a monster.

You can't perform year in year out at that degree of intensity.

Plus his halfback selections were diabolical.

Basically he was a total prick who was too full on.

Which is exactly what we need right now.

I'd welcome him back to be honest.

I said this late last year, dice.
They will give it a shake this year & a BIG one next year.
This is what happens when, as you say "entire queensland junior base available".

Related but not.

I would have Corey Norman here now if he wanted to be here.

He was rude to me at a post match function so he was shown the door.

You should of taken your red hat off!

Ricky stuart has gone into 2 clubs that were both very strong on the field & destroyed them both. He had a measure of success here with gus around, when left to his own devices he showed how truely incapable he was.
He's the perfect origin coach as he can pick stars & not have to develop anything.
He's the last man we want at the helm of this club again, we're only just putting this club back together from the shambles he left it in.

If Bennett gets the spoon this year (not likely), he will not be coaching next year...Not sure about your guarantee JJ..

On what assumption do you base this claim?
