In 1988 the Brisbane Broncos became the first privately owned rugby league club in the premier competition. There were immediate concerns that the NSWRL (and later ARL and NRL) competitions would be at Brisbane?s mercy, given that they had first call on the talent to field a State of Origin-strength team. But this did not immediately prove to be the case, with the club undergoing some teething problems ? and the sacking of former Australian Test captain Wally Lewis ? before striking form. The Broncos went on to win five premierships in a nine year period from 1992 to 2000 ? a golden era guided over by the greatest coach of the modern era, Wayne Bennett. Bennett?s Broncos tells the story of the club?s premiership success through the eyes of the players who starred in those grand final teams.

Legendary NRL coach Wayne Bennett tells the story of his remarkable 21 years with the Brisbane Broncos. "Utterly compelling and continually surprising" (Christopher Sutton, foxports.com.au) In an age when few things stay the same for any length of time, Wayne Bennett's unprecedented 21-year run as coach of the Brisbane Broncos is an extraordinary achievement. His men won all six of the grand finals they contested in this time, and as Queensland State of Origin coach, Bennett lost just two series out of seven. In two stints as Australian coach, he built an incredible record of 11 wins and a draw from 15 tests. WAYNE BENNEtt: tHE MAN IN tHE MIRROR is the candid story of this remarkable man who helped launch a new rugby league club and turned it into a powerhouse. Bennett has always sought to make a difference. A man of principle, Bennett has had to make many tough choices over the years, such as sacking the legendary Wally Lewis and joining the Super League revolution. In 2008, he made the shock decision to leave the Broncos, and join the ailing Sydney club St George Illawarra. Once again, Bennett is aiming to prove the critics wrong; to prove he's one of a kind. throughout his great football adventure, Bennett and his wife trish have raised three children, two of whom are disabled. When ABC's AUStRALIAN StORY showcased him and his family in 1999, the episode achieved record ratings and showed the softer side of this notoriously media-shy public figure. three years later, he wrote the inspirational DON't DIE WItH tHE MUSIC IN YOU, which has now sold more than 100,000 copies.
