NRL: Questions are being asked as to whether Wayne Bennett had an influence on the Lewis Dodd signing BEFORE the sacking of Jason Demetriou.

The Rabbitohs are set to offer Wayne Bennett a three year deal amid reports the master coach has sounded out the Parramatta Eels about a potential position should Brad Arthur be sacked.reported Souths want Bennett back on a three-year contract from 2025, but sources revealed Bennett had interest in the Eels job if it became available.

The only place to watch every game of every round LIVE with no ad-breaks during play is Fox League, available on Kayo. New to Kayo?The Eels are reluctant to rush a decision on Arthur’s future to enter a bidding war with Souths for Bennett after Jason Demetriou’s sacking on Tuesday. However, Souths’ urgency to sign a new coach and in particular Bennett means the Eels run the risk of missing out on the seven time premiership winner, while they wait for Arthur to improve the team’s results.The Souths’ board has reportedly endorsed the pursuit of a reunion with Bennett, who coached the team from 2019 to the 2021 Grand Final, which included two preliminary finals in his three year stint.

The Dolphins have assistant Kristian Woolf as a coach in waiting and it remains to be seen if they would let Bennett leave early.
