I cannot remember him running less than what he has this year in his entire career so far. It's hurting the Tigers attack bigtime.

Did you hear he was injured? Or just speculating?

I agree he hardly ran to-night but he defended really well, I think he is playing injured.

He's not injured, just playing shit.
Defense was good though.

He is stifling our attack at times. I dont know what is going on but he is just playing with no confidence.
That play tonight where he ran 30 meters across field and then produced that retarded kick was embarrassing. I am laughing about it because it was so inept and so un-benji like…..I dont know whether his natural flair and play what is in front of you mentality has been coached out of him or whether he has made the decision to not back himself but we really need it back.
We can not make the 8 without him running the ball and producing those freakish line breaks. I miss them....the team misses them more.

I really hope this is why Benji was moved to 7 and him & Chris will move back next game.
Prime example.
When big ben made his sideline break tonight Benji, as he always does, was the only supporting player. Ben gets the ball to Benj. Normally Marshall would produce a right foot step, head infield, jink, swerve, run in a circle, dummy to no one, step again and score an amazing try.
Tonight he produces a left foot step, back into the defence, and offloads to his prop forward who has just raced 70 meters to set the whole play up and is pinned on the sideline with the defence screaming across towards him. Why didnt Benji have a go himself? Who's worsds are ringing in his head when he gets the ball? Last year he would have backed himself. This year he is acting like a conductor.

I agree, in that his defence was really good but he was more rocks than diamonds in attack. But he was under so much pressure tonight playing 6 and 7.
Lawrence is rubbish in the halves.

Im curious as to how you extracted that information from him; "Benji your attack was, shall we say limited tonight - were you suffering from an infectious disease?" Or was it more direct?
