‘No quick fix’ to Coast issues
“I don’t feel any more pressure than any other NRL coach, apart from maybe Craig Bellamy (Melbourne super coach) and Trent Robinson (Roosters’ premiership winner). I’m lucky to have an NRL coaching job.
“I can’t be worried about my future. If I worry about that, I’m not focused on the job.”
In his second campaign as an NRL coach, Brennan is adamant he needs time to regenerate a Titans club that has made the finals just once in the past eight seasons.
“I’m not doubting myself or questioning the path that I am on. You can’t get a quick fix,” he said.
“I think the owners (Rebecca Frizelle and Darryl Kelly) understand that it does take a lot of time to get your roster right and your style of play and culture embedded in the team.
“It is hard to judge a coach on one or two years, sometimes it takes longer to get a belief in the roster and the structures you want to bring in. They were aware of that. They understood that. That was why the faith was shown. I wasn’t walking into a finished product.”
