    That makes me feel like Borat's neighbour who is unable to afford clock radio.

    I'm willing to give this a whole 80 minutes before slagging Griffin off as the worst coach in Broncos history. I want to see what the fuck he thinks he's doing here.

    Then again one of the things that put him in contention in the first place was buying an obviously washed up Prince, which most of you supported. :p

    yeah it was an abject failure but norman and Wallace wasn't exactly the 2013 version of Kenny and sterling was it?

    No, but Norman and Wallace had been in the Broncos system long before Griffin was head coach. He didn't decide to buy them as he did with Prince.

    what does that have to do with anything?

    he brought prince in to try and better that shithouse combo. it didn't work but he didn't have many options.

    Oh I thought you were implying that the choice to play Prince wasn't much worse than the choice to play Norman. As far as qualifying for worst Brisbane coach ever spending money on Prince is much worse than using Norman who was already at the club.

    As far as his options go - Ben Hunt. As I said at the time, his development has been retarded by the opinions of people who thought playing Prince would make us a genuine premiership threat in 2013.

    Hunt is far, far from proven.

    Indeed. Just saying playing him in 2013 would've been by far the better option. Thinking we could postpone rebuilding the club with Scott Prince was insane afaic. A serious error in judgement.

    Playing him with Wallace would have been a master stroke, instead Griffin chose Norman like he had a brain stroke.

    lol I'm torn between the horrible idea and the impressive turn of phrase.

    And as was previously discussed, Hunt was kept behind by Peter Wallace.......not Prince.

    Keeping Wallace around 2-3 yrs longer than we should have is what may have fucked Ben Hunt.

    Even if that was true, which it isn't, you well know that buying Prince all but resigned Hunt to another year in second string.

    That's a question I'm not qualified to answer.

    Why do you insist on that? Norman never should have put the Broncos 5/8 jersey on.

    In hindsight, should have just went with Hunt and Norman last year. Norman looked far better partnered with Hunt...probably because it wasn't Wallace in the halves (every other player benefited from that too).

    Pretty sure it was Wallace who put the weed in Schapelle's bags too.
