Benji is done

[Strider]

We can't goto market mate. Reynolds or Mbye leaving would free up space to sign a half. Tigers won't be looking unless at least one decides to leave. One of our other players Benji has been blocking will partner him. Ie Reynolds, Walters, Mbye or Madden.

Now I’m not condoning we keep Benji for next year at all, I think he should retire gracefully also, but I just have a serious question - does anyone really think we would‘ve even been in that game last night without his contribution? I sure as hell don’t! Most of our points came directly from him. He did some dopey things for sure (not the least that early kick), but he was also the main one laying on our tries. I don’t know where our attacking spark is going to come from next season with neither Benji or Grant playing for us.

I think that match summed up Benji perfectly.

He laid on some great plays to put us in a position to win the game.

And then he deprived us of the opportunity to win the game with a selfish play at the end.
