As much as I like Benji, can someone please explain to me how someone that didn't know what he was going to do next on the football field coach someone else to do that?

As good as he was in his prime I just can't help but feel that he offers 3/5 of 5/8 of f*ck all to a young up and coming half other than what Sheens has always said about, "do whatever you like on the football field as long as you practice it at training."

Don't get me wrong, it was a thing of beauty when it came off but there were also all those passes to the 5th row that we had to contend with as well.

I was pleased at the end of last year to hear that there was going to be an emphasis on skills in the pre-season, but concentrating on basic skills and 200 passes at training everyday hasn't exactly reaped too many rewards so far.

If you had seen him on The Apprentice you would have seen a man who is sharp and knows how to manage and get the best out of people.

He is not some limited footballer who relied on his natural athletic ability, he is more than that. He is measured and calm and understands people. Ie Bennett

Read something online quoting Mario as saying that Scott has known the biys since they were 8/9.

They wanted assurances that Scott was going to be there long term and Benjis support crew would be increased.

I'd caulk this up as a clear win for Scott.

Good, he deserved a bit more respect. he wasnt the one who appointed himself and upset people. Once they were instructed to separate the appointment and get along look what happens.

He came across as very bright and capable but also as someone who's not always keen on listening to good advice from others.

Celebrity Apprentice? Yeah I think so. Some of it is contrived and/or rubbish but you do see a different side of some celebrities/slightly famous people. Benji comes across as a very thoughtful and smart guy. His pitch about his life story was fascinating. Shame he was at Souths for the year before because they show him in Souths gear but Tigers get a good run.
 
Guess we can say Fulton has been a decent get so far, i doubt we would have signed them if McDonnell was still in charge. Also think we have come out much better not signing Schuster and getting the Fainu's.

All in all you can say Benji and Fulton worked well together to get the right result in the end, see everyone they can work with one another. Benji brushed Schuster Scott got the Fainu's all's well that ends well.

Latu is considered by many junior league judges to be the best young five-eighth in the game.

Still young (same age as Da Silva, Galvin etc. for reference) but I reckon he'll be our starting #6 in Round 1, 2024.

Samuela is one year older and is viewed as a quality young forward prospect.
