'An excellent bloke, and excellent coach. Craig is a man of his word. He has great integrity: he is honest, loyal, humble and extremel hardworking. His are exceptional values.' Wayne Bennett

'A really good test of a leader is what happens when things are tough. During the salary cap drama in 2010 - that was Craig's defining moment . . . He demands and expects the very best out of himself, his staff and his players. I admire what Craig has been able to do.' Paul Roos

'Craig has a phenomenal work ethic and attention to detail: it is unrivaled. He doesn't leave any stone unturned . . . What he's done to continually rebuild the Storm has been exceptional.' Darren Lockyer

'Craig Bellamy stands right alongside Jack Gibson and the great coaches in our game's history.' Phil Gould

'The man makes the coach.' Laurie Daley

'As a coach, he just tells it how it is. For some people this can be confronting, but they learn he does it for all the right reasons.' Cameron Smith

About the authors

Craig Bellamy

Craig Bellamy is hailed as the NRL's best coach. Born in Portland, NSW, Bellamy played 148 first-grade games for the Canberra Raiders from 1982-92 before coaching its President's Cup team to a premiership in 1995. He joined the Brisbane Broncos as Wayne Bennett's assistant coach in 1998, helping the Broncos to titles in 1998 and 2000, and was appointed Melbourne Storm NRL head coach in 2003. In the ten seasons since Bellamy's arrival, the Storm have played in five NRL grand finals, won three titles, four minor premierships, two World Club Challenge trophies and qualified for semi-finals football every year – except for 2010 when the club was ordered to play for zero points and stripped of two NRL premierships due to the salary cap scandal. Bellamy was NSW State of Origin coach from 2008-10, Australian Test assistant coach in 2005-06 and is a three-time winner of the NRL's Dally M Coach of the Year award.
