Should the Canberra Raiders make a play for coach Wayne Bennett?

Following the Canberra Raiders’ limp performance against the Gold Coast Titans last weekend, the club’s NRL season is in freefall.

I thought he had openly stated that he was returning to Queensland at the end of this year?

Hell no! He was a good coach a decade or so ago. But no longer up to it. He is able to get players to sign with him due to his aurora of being a great coach. But Ricky can do this a well. Bennette is a great short term passion coach ie QLD coach. But we need someone that is tactically great and can leave the recruitment to someone like Ricky if he ever moved into a non coaching role.
