Blog with Buzz: Who the Dally M coach of the year should be

BLOG WITH BUZZ: With the Dally M awards night fast approaching Phil Rothfield took a shot at picking his team of the year, including who is best coach.

Just how good is Cleary?

PICKING a Dally M coach of the year is as hard as the positional awards.

Craig Bellamy has done a sensational job to steer the Storm to ­another minor premiership. Yet he’s had much better cattle than Brad Arthur at the Parra­matta Eels.

We’ve gone with Arthur ahead of Bellamy, Trent Barrett at Manly and Shane Flanagan at the Sharks.

Trying to defend a premiership can be harder than winning one and the fact Flanagan has Cronulla in a position to challenge again despite losing Michael Ennis and Ben Barba is a significant achievement.
