Ben Jeffries??

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

has this guy signed with you?
id love to see him back in the black and white and blue
i remember seeing him in 2002 join up with luke covell one day in the halves to absolutely tear up the central coast rip.

can you guys tell me the truth of this rumour

 

[Everlovin' Antichrist]

A name we don't need to see again thanks.

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

someone on the main forum said he signed with u guys
refer to the signings thread
mighty_tiger i believe

He is listed in the Balmain PL squad for next year - along with another name we shouldn't have had to see again (frank samia) and it looks likely he will spend next year taking a spot that should by rights belong to the likes of nowland or chase.

Erm...Jeffries is still contracted to Wakefield Trinty. Another Ben Jeffries perhaps?

we can hope!!

ben jeffries was a good player
remember what he had to play with
he would definetly be a decent back up

 

[Big_Bad_Shark_Fan]

remember he was the form halfback of the first two rounds of the 2002 premiership. he can play.
did i hear correc that kaufusi came back as well

Ben Jeffries was average at best and a throwback to times best forgotten. Like Adam Tippett, Luke Covell, Joel Caine, Nick Bradley-Qalilawa, Hassan Saleh, Ahmed Bajouri, Trent Runciman etc, their passports should have all been stamped "Never to return to the NRL".

5 minutes of promise a career does not make.....

How Covellesque of him.

Jeffries was dead bloody average.

Jeffries was dead bloody average.

Hmmm... he was far from consistently good, but he did play quite a few good games speckled with the odd patch of brilliance. I remember seeing a banner at Shark Park saying "Who needs Johns, we've got Jefferies". At the time, it was true.

What garbage.....the bloke was hopless.........

He played quite a few bad ones too.

That banner must have been made by a relo of his.

I don't recall Jeffries with any fondness whatsoever. Another in a long line of nuffies who showed some promise but in the end just couldn't hack it in the NRL.

Correct.

Jefferies had a brilliant kicking game and sound running game. It was his passing and organising that seemed to let him down. I always thought he had potential. He was better then Withers.

oh dear

I've just realised that for some reason my brain wasn't working very well yesterday - when I read (and wrote) frank samia for some reason I was thinking of hassan salah

I actually think Frank Samia is a very good player and if he manages an injury free year will be an asset to Balmain

Jeffries on the other hand is still crap

 

[simon says]

Yeah.....if Samia can stay injury free he is a gun....and Jefferies,surely he isnt gonna come back from top level ESL to reggies????
