#5 Wayne Bennett - The Greatest Of All Time | The Bye Round Podcast with James Graham 

Just shows how well respected you are to get Wayne Bennett

About the last person I expected to see on a podcast!! 🤯😎 Looking forward to this one . Cheers Jim 🙏

I know james won't see this but this podcast has been great, it won't reach super heights because rugby league is such a small group but he deserves everything he gets. He has such an intimate style of interviewing. Hope this blows up jammer

Great for you to bring this side of Wayne to the public eye, 2 champion blokes !

James Graham is the best past player media talent out there. Love listening to him and his thoughts on the game.

Great little moment at the end there. Tells you why Bennett is such a great mentor of young men.

Two Great Proud men chatting about the Greatest Game of All. Loved every minute. Bought a tear to an old Kiwis eye. Bless ya both.

Wayne Bennett speaks. Hopefully next will be Gus. 2 guys who’s minds absolutely astonish me.

Jammer opened him up. Excellent podcast. He loves his players. What a great man.

Have been lucky enough to meet Wayne twice for a couple minutes when I was younger. This gives me a better impression than I already had. Great poddy Jammer.

The state of origin shield should be called the Beetson-Raudonikis shield.

Wow! How good are these guests and the pods! So good

just goes to sure what a likeable guy wayne is more behind the quiet man himself

Great interview. You can see why the players play for Wayne. The Dolphins are in great hands 🐬🐬🐬

How the hell has no club approached Graham in some coaching capacity. He should be involved in the Bulldogs. He’s so knowledgeable and passionate

Dolphins and Wayne need a fullback…..Wayne loves his English lads…..step forward Jack Welsby?? How’d you think he’d do Jammer?

A quick question for James,if the GOAT called u and asked u to join our dolphins as a mentour/assistant coach? & would you do it just for the love of wayne n the game or does money need to come into it. You both are legends in your own right as a player and coach. Go the Dolphins,fins up🐬 it would be great to see u in a dolphins Jersey 😂

WOW Jimmy, AWESOME interview! Never heard Wayne speak so honestly and humbly. I think I've taken some life lessons from him today too. 100% agree with him that you willsucceed in everything you do post-footy career. Am loving the podcast, you are a natural Jimmy! Would love you to interview some of the old timers-Sterlo, Wayne Pearce, The Falcon etc.

Two good fellas having a yarn...James "jimmy' Graham and Coach Wayne "no B.S" Bennett. In there day...one tells you how to play, then Jimmy puts those words into action. Two talents from player to coach. Onya, Jimmy James.

That was very enjoyable to watch James. I reckon most people will learn a few good lessons about life out of this one. I really like how he explained his way of unwinding with the loose cannons at the back of the bus. That made so much sense.

Thanks for the content james, good way to kill the time on the commute home.

Keep em coming!

James. I’m just judging from the pod episodes I’ve watched but Fuck me, shoot me if I’m wrong but It looks like you’ve got some soul searching to do mate and you’re searching for answers on where to go in the next chapter of your life and that’s okay mate. I wish you the best mate.

Id really like to pick waynes brain on the issue of indigenous aussies not singing the anthem, after listening to him talk of the importance of respecting what you have and where you come from. I personally feel they have a right to not sing, considering the anthem being a reminder of the genocide of their ancestors. But i also think of the great honour it is to play for the nation and the respect it deserves. Im sure wayne would summarise it simply and set it straight for everyone lol

Hell yeah! Always been a Wayne fan and great to see this side of him.

Awesome James - Congrats.

Class this! The last 5 were especially moving. Well done

I envy this mans persona… absolute legend at what he does, yet absolutely stoned cold and focused with no frills or bullsh!t…

Best rugby league interview I've ever seen... Well done, Jimmy & The Goat!

Superb Jammer! Been working my way back through these.....and Wayne, I'm a fan anyway, but you can't help but "GET" why he has the effect he has .

This one should have so many more than 35k views. Absolute Gold this is.

I love watching Wayne reminisce and have a laugh❤️💚

Big ups to Uncle Wayne! 👏🏽🤙🏽

Love when you get these characters on and talk about other shit than football

Fuck yea windows 10

Yer this is the first podcast Wayne’s ever done wow

Awesome interview with the GOAT. Love your work Jammer.

Wow. Terrific interview Jammer. The next Michael Parkinson if you fancy it, Ive never seen Wayne Bennett so completely comfortable. Great Job

Benno's awkward body language makes this 100 times better. He's just a no fuss guy.

Bloody good questions James, top stuff

Excellent work Jimmy!

Absolutely brilliant interview 👏

Love this Jammer

27:19 Munster laughing in the corner

Bruhh out of every podcast show I’ve seen around I never thought I’d ever seen the great one Wayne Bennet be in a podcast … 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Your joking the greatest coach ,rubbish.The greatest coach is Harry Bath,he changed the way the game was played in Australia at the greatest club ever ST George not the sudo amalgamated club of today.

Remember if he ever grills you and says you played like shit reserves next week look him in the eyes with the Schwarzenegger glare and say I'll be back Bennett 😁👍

James is a smart man I love your work

Wayne lost his family for the lost 4 media of the game fuck media Wayne have relationship woman who cares he is of the greatest of all times NRL

Best interview I’ve ever watch;your a credit to rugby league the both of you:

Jimmy U We're A Bloody Awesome Player And I Miss Seeing U Play For The Mighty Bulldogs. As Soon As I Found Ur Podcast I Subscribe Right Away. 💪🏻✊🏻💯

Wayne kiwis need a coach i belive u like nz come coach a team that could be better than anyone

Jimmy I think you found your calling....

Everyone needs to know the bullseye story now...!!!

Jimmy Bringin in the Big Dog! Not many could get this man on a Pod. Jimmy the King!

Love U Wayne Your a true story teller. I want to know more about the "bulls eye" dart game😂😂😂 & did Wayne say something about a nudist beach. Could you all imagine the GOAT at a nudist beach 😂😂😂. I bet he's remembered EVERY GAME that he's coached. Congrats on the 900 games GOAT🎉🎉🎉 ONLY 100 MORE TO GO FOR THE FINS I HOPE TO MAKE IT TO 1000🎉🎉🎉🎉

The right stuff. You both have it but man she's a work on eh. Small decisions each & every day. I struggled big time after hanging up the boots, missed the battle & commeraderie. Lucky I'm stubborn & kept going till I found a substitute that ticked the boxes, offshore construction & coaching. The sheriff's right, live right & do right to others, back yourself & be your own master. Thanks a million James✊🏽

Such a wonderful interview James, Wayne such a good man and a Legend has such great respect for you . I enjoy your commentary James on mmm and this is such a wonderful interview. Thank you so much James for bringing it to us I enjoyed it so very much.

It's great to see Wayne speak more than a sentence or two like you see in pressers

Awesome podcast. I have so much respect for both of them.

Qld would never have won the 1980 Origin if Beetson was up against Fulton. Fulton was a curse to Beetson. Check the stats.

Eagles don't travel in packs - that theme keeps getting drilled home in this interview. I'd like him to write another book about his last few years in coaching .. not always about premierships but still competing.

Just wish Wayne puts forward some more QRL Redcliffe personnel around the NRL team and in the coaching staff that bleed the jersey and have been around before the NRL team.

Outstanding stuff. Graham was a fantastic player and even better in the media. He not only gets big names but great interviewing style, lets them open up. Just watched Sterlo, Spud, this...binge watching.

That last 5 minutes was powerful, listen to Wayne Jimbo ❤ you'll be right ya legend ✌

Very touching st the end. Respect is earned and not given and that's even more so, with the greatest, most respected coach of all time. Well done to you Jammer, would've had you at Wigan in a heartbeat.

Is James Graham interviewing Clint Eastwood? Has he got a six shooter in the pocket??

Tommy Makemson and Sam Tomkins - both great players and great to see WB acknowledge that.

Brilliant

Excellent interview .

Brilliant a great insight into why this guy is spoke about in such high regard. 👏 This is a great podcast mate. Rugby league ones tend to be a lot more real than most.. looking forward to some English players and coaches on the sofa in the future

Hey ppl I'm trying to find James premiership win in NRL, was he playing for the storms?

James, this was outstanding. The barriers you broke down on both yourself and Wayne was brilliant to watch. Some great life lessons in there as well. Wayne is right…. You won’t fail! Outstanding work.

At last, an insight into the real Wayne Bennett, seeing he is a funny guy and why he is well respected.

That is the best Wayne Bennett interview I have ever seen. Well done to James Graham, some deep probing questions, and a respectful interview. I was pleased also of the length of the interview, and grateful of Wayne Bennetts generous time. Wayne often mentioned, respect and responsibilities, yes we should never let these qualities leave us.

Bennett out the gate with origin meaning more to QLD gotta love his subtle digs at the heavily NSW biased media

Excellent interview, nice one Jammer and you Wayne. I learned a lot a lot from this 👍

He wants to wait for munster ? but has already signed Milford ? Dont they both play 6 ?

Love this podcast. Also Jammer looking ripped! Triceps of doom.

James you are the best sporting podcast host I have seen. Great questions and the guests feel so at ease with you

One of the best Rugby League interviews I have seen. Great job.

A lot of gold nugggets of advice on this podcast. Go for gold James the poddy is Fantastic.

The biggest mistake was England not continuing with him as coach.

Awesome interview James!

Billy the Kid is a legend! Freddy's Panther?🤨 🥱

Wayne I miss you so much 💚❤️

What a bloody ripping sit down, top shelf stuff that was

What an interview and its easy to see why hes so sucessful

James is such a gentleman of the game. Who else has able to get Wayne Bennett on a poddy!

Great interview could listen to Wayne all day “

Absolutely superb interview. Hats off to James

Possibly my favourite podcast of all time 👏👏

Fantastic. Genuine and natural conversation, well done Jammer.

Love seeing this side of Wayne , you see why he is successful

Love that he’s a Queenslander

Great work mate, really good interview!

Great podcast. Wayne is a top bloke.

Great insights. Brilliant. Onya James

James you are a legend! Keep up the good work.

imagine if Wayne's Dolphins make it to Finals Week 2, or even the finals for that matter, next season. Would be very impressive.
