New Issue, on Sale 52 SPORT FRIDAY JANUARY 15 2021 Billy, Cam a part of Fred teaches skills Qld’s plan TRAVIS MEYN THE Maroons have devised a radical plan to replace depart- ing coach Wayne Bennett, which could see Origin legends Cameron Smith or Billy Slater take the reins of Queensland. Bennett has revealed he will not return as Queensland coach in 2021 after orchestrat- ing last year’s r e m a r k a b l e Origin series victory. The 71-year- old supercoach has opted to focus on his NRL commit- ments with South Sydney ahead of what is his final season in charge of the Rabbitohs. Former North Queensland Cowboys coach Paul Green (pictured) is favourite to re- place Bennett as Maroons coach for the 2021 Origin se- ries, which will revert back to its traditional mid-year slot. However, Green’s stint could be short-lived, with the Queensland Rugby League firmly believing he will be in charge of an NRL club before the year is over.

  • Read the Article Published by the Sydney Morning Herald
    As tempest rages, questions cloud air ANNE DAVIES and MALCOLM KNOX | The Sydney Morning Herald | April 24, 2010 We still don't know how far the subterfuge went, write Anne Davies and Malcolm Knox. As the initial shock of the Storm's abrupt demotion from the competition subsides, the question of who knew will quickly be replaced with another question: who should have known? In the early phases of this latest crisis in rugby league, the name of the game is to blame a few wayward executives. The chief executive of News Ltd, John Hartigan, called it ''a couple of rats in the ranks'', naming the former Storm chief executive, Brian Waldron, as the ''architect of the whole shooting match''. David Gallop, the chief executive of the NRL, backed Hartigan's assessment. But Waldron, who has now gone to ground, has claimed ''there were people on the board who knew about everything that was going on'', arguing that the Storm was merely following a widespread practice in the league of topping up salaries. In the case of the Canterbury Bulldogs, whose salary cap infractions were exposed by the Herald in 2002, the entire board of the football club and some of the Leagues Club board were aware that players' salaries were being topped up. They even noted the top-ups in board minutes. What some directors may not have known was how the extra payments were being funnelled to players. The most egregious of these were promotional payments to the players from the Oasis development, a massive casino-style club being undertaken by the Leagues Club with Liverpool Council.

Almost 300 former players (BOBs) and members of the wider Broncos family attended the luncheon at the Broncos Leagues Club during the June bye weekend. And Justin Hodges, David Stagg, Shane Perry, Shaun Berrigan, Petero Civoniceva, Ben Hannant and Casey McGuire were the 3 premiership winners from a decade ago who were able share to the unforgettable 4 moment with their fellow guests. But for Berrigan, who joined the club from school and made 186 NRL appearances for the club, winning on grand final day had been a long-held aspiration. “As a kid still in school, I recall sitting in Cyril Connell’s office upstairs here and writing down my goals,” he revealed to an attentive audience. “One was to win a grand final and the other was to win the Clive Churchill Medal as best on ground. Luckily that day I was able to do both.” Berrigan, who was also a member of the 5 2000 premiership team, was joined on stage by teammates Petero Civoniceva, Justin Hodges and Ben Hannant and interviewed by MC Ben Ikin, also a Broncos premiership winner form 2000.

  • Media Statement
    MEDIA STATEMENT 28 September 2018 Good luck to Billy the Kid. Our greatest son KAP Leader and Federal Member for Kennedy Bob Katter has wished Innisfail hero, Billy Slater the best of luck in this weekend’s NRL grand final. He’s hoping Slater will get a fairy tale finish to his spectacular rugby league career when the Melbourne Storm take-on the Sydney Roosters this Sunday. Mr Katter said, “Slater is ranked up there beside Johnathan Thurston, Wally Lewis and Cam Smith as the greatest ever players to play rugby league and anyone who watched the semi finals would not hesitate for a moment to say that Slater is easily the most dominant player in the NRL. “A heart as big as a lion’s that resides in people like Billy Slater, the determination of a tiger, the athletic skills and all those rare qualities that make people winners are all on display there with Billy. “He’s not just the best fullback in Australia - he’d have to be up there with being the best fullback that’s ever played the game. “Shane Knuth and I had our photograph taken last year at the ‘100 years of League’ dinner in Innisfail with Lionel Williamson, Kerry Boustead and Billy Slater and I thought at the time - can a man on the planet ask for more? “If Cooper Cronk is out then they should win by 20 points but who knows? In football you can go on thinking that you’re going to win and you relax and the other mob try harder so you never ever know.
