I reckon Bennett will go back to Brisbane and be a mentor for Lockyer who will be groomed as the future Brisbane coach.

Bennett may go back to back with the dragons, but the lost opportunity at not being able to do back to back charity shields will no doubt give him more than a few sleepless nights in the years to come.

Yes I believe so.

I think so and if my memory is right how ironic as Bennett went back to bank against the dragons....the very team he will coach to another back to back

Why did you assume I was saying 'say goodbye' to the 2011 premiership and not 'say hello' to it?

You guys arent gonna get close to going back to back.

Funny that your only 2 wins this year is from the 2 teams on the bottom of the ladder. Saints look shit this year, struggle to make the 8

Capewell again left out of the squad.

Titans will be there at the end, they have the better squad.

Dragons will struggle this year.

What a difference the cap has made to NRL. Back to back premierships were a pretty common occurrence up until the 90's. now it's been 18 years since one?
