Who do you want to play Five-Eight for the rest of the year?

Can we give Benji a run off the bench for the remainder of the year and give him the farewell he deserves?

It's honestly not the worst idea I've ever heard. Have him play the rest of the year and then he can retire. I can't see it happening though.

Benji fractured his arm playing for Redcliffe. Also our new recruit, Tyson Gamble, played five-eighth for Redcliffe with Benji at full back. Why not try to get Gamble early?

Lawrence, if only to fix up the woeful defence on that side. It would allow Brooks full control of the side and good preparation for next year. It would allow another forward in the 17 as well, which will also help with defence and go forward.

True mate, it would fix some of the defensive issues on that side. But that's about all it would fix and other teams would simply be able to concentrate almost all their defensive effort toward Brooks as he would be chief kicker/playmaker. Too much pressure for him I think, so the replacement needs to at least be able to kick a footy and pass it…

I think it's something Brooks needs to learn to handle now because it's not going to be much different next year. Sure Reynolds can kick but Cleary likes to have his 7 do all the kicking if possible.
