Benji’s response in the press conference should have been: “I love my players but today was totally unacceptable.”
Until we have someone who can not only foster great relationships, but also set and achieve high expectations/standards we will continue to flounder.
Ah yes, "unacceptable". That wonderful word that was used to death during the 20-teens by Benji, Robbie and co. All to no avail.
I'm glad he hasn't been rolling it out now and I'll be happy if I never hear it uttered again!
I feel like today’s performance only ignites the coaching debate.

Watching today on Fox, and listening to Cooper Cronk commentary, I would sign him as attack coach in a heartbeat. Whatever terms he wants.
Tigers have more wins this year than the cowboys. Assume that Payten will be looking for a job next year. Benji has the man management down pat, he needs redzone help,

I’d love to have him back home.

Since 2011, the tigers have had
one season with 12 wins,
3 with 11,
one with 10,
2 with 8,
3 with 7
1 with 6
2 with 4 wins
We now have 7 wins and are a decent chance to get at least 2 more this year. That is not even mentioning the 2 or 3 games we should have won this year.
we have a coach who can recruit and a ceo who doesn’t do silly deals. Benji deserves another year with everyone’s full support but he needs someone to show him how to coach redzone
Perhaps controversial take: the thing we are missing is Royce Hunt. We now have strike on both edges with strong halves, centres and wingers. What worked very well to start the year was Hunt coming on, denting the defensive line, fast play the ball and spread wide to retreating defence to allow out centres to work. That is what worked so well in the redzone to start the year. Bring Hunt back and we have a chance at 9th

Agree! This has crossed my mind lately too. If he could come good for us it would really help in finishing the season on a good note.
