Bye Bye Benny Bronco
Labrat, Camilla and Stav 4 September, 2008 - 11:44 AM
Wayne Bennett has farewelled 137 players from the Brisbane club he's steered since its inception 21 years ago.
Now it's the club's turn to say goodbye to a man whose legacy is a great sporting franchise success story.
Brisbane fans are expected to turn out in their droves to the Broncos' final regular season match against Newcastle at Suncorp Stadium on Friday night to show their appreciation for a man who brought them so much pleasure over so many years.
Statistics can tell only a small part of the Bennett story but they're certainly eye-catching.
He leaves Brisbane for St George Illawarra next year with a coaching record that may never be bettered.
Six grand final appearances (1992-93-97-98-2000-2006) for six premierships.
The most wins (350) by any man who's coached in 100 years.
He's also shaped the careers of many champions from day one, starting with the cheeky fair-haired larrikin from Ipswich, Allan Langer.
Throw in 35 players who pulled on the green and gold of Australia, four Test captains, Rothmans, Dally M and Golden Boot winners and it's hard to argue Bennett was anything but a genius at bringing the best out of players.
