Will Api deliver a Robbie repeat ?

Was it origin that Bennys Mum wanted to run on ?
I need help on this one.
Benny's mum ran on the check on him when he was covered in blood. He got a kiss and they both had blood all over their faces.
I remember thinking at the time that it was such an act and I felt ashamed to be a blues fan, it was sooo over the top.
It was at the end of NSW 14-6 win of game 1 1992.
Benny hasn't changed, he still is a drama queen but one of the best hookers of all time.
 
Ffs Balmain Tigers supporters, I need to know , which one is he, he’s your great, us Magpies have no right in these matters, I don’t want to guess

Is it,
a. Back door Benny
or
b. Bouncing Benny

✅✅✅ love it @Cobarcats 🥰
 
Are you sitting on your bed with a suitcase open with all your paper clipping with memories fllooding in. Dont get too excited champ 😉
Actually arched over the coffee table ,on iPad, watching not really, Sunrise news on 7. Floating and punching above my weight.
 
I personally think API has the know how power to lead us to the finals, 2 more good signings and he’s set. How long till we see Api get us there?
 
MY VIEW
The good thing about the API and IPap signings is , you don’t mess with them.
Very smart recruitment by the WT. We lacked leadership, but not anymore. Just these guys alone will attract good recruits to the club. Benji is slowly being integrated as coach as not to cause uproar when it does happen
 
Sure if your measure of success is limited to finals appearances only.
he also won a grand final, played origin and for Australia. He was a good hooker and aspects of his game were replicated by others during and after he finished playing (with varying degrees of success). I would say he was influential.
I'd agree..... to an extent.
Everywhere except the ladder it would seem

unfortunately - neither are leaders as such...
both fantastic in their position - But not leaders.... Not on field anyhow.
god knows who's filling that void
 
Are you sure your real name is not Bulldog boy ? That ball hog line for both Benny & Robbie was crapped out of Goulds mouth. What happened when they played them in Origin? Both part of winning series when NSW were being dominated! It was Gould who said "Robbie is to smart, no one knows what he is doing",& "Mitchell Pearce cant control the game because of Robbie". What happened? Replaced Rob with peats & we got our arse handed to us. Any one with the smallest football brain can see the brilliance of both Robbie & Benny. I apologise if you didnt already know. BTW next time you are hanging on every word Gould craps out say Hi to Cameron for me... he wont be far from the same hole.

Wake up clown...
I know what my name is....

Ask Gary Freeman why Robbie didn't get played in SG Ball? (As a kid)
Ask Mark O'Neill about the spray Robbie got in his debut...

I watched enough of both to establish an opinion....
You obviously got yours from the highlight reels.

Move on, Come back when you're a little more schooled.

What’s the SG Ball story bat ?
Im racking my grey matter to remember, I’m sure he was in the Balmain Ball side - he definitely starred in the Flegg side. Balmain and Wests had some great clashes back during those years.

Benched him for the season
- I’m paraphrasing…. But it was something along the lines of “Until Robbie learns it’s a team game, you’re on the bench”

Played Dene in front of him
