Re: What Has Turned Around Bryce Gibbs ??
Reply #67 –
DJ..you dont reckon the degree of difficulty in making our top ten every year is reduced as he has played in such a poor team that has been light on for talent?.....Gibbs in cruise mode is still going to be better than a lot of the banana's we have had running around...IMO.
re: His money...JH commented on his money.....from memory he isnt on anything overboard, might have been 500k and a bit [per year but nothing outrageous...not sure if
thats is a reflection on Gibbs worth as viewed by the club at the time or the man himself happy with the club and prepared to take a bit less to help the club.
I'm really enjoying the new Bryce Gibbs regardless of the above and hope he can keep performing....
Good point about the degree of difficulty, even if he made the top 5 in 6 of his 9 completed seasons (Murphy has six top 5 finishes too). We did make finals in four of those seasons so, at worst, it was in an average team.
You're right about his pay packet, we have been getting very good value for money from Gibbs (and most of our better players for that matter) and will continue to do so.
I reckon the criticism of Gibbs would virtually disappear if he lost his man bun and acquired a sleeve.
