Ben Smith - The other workaholic we needed

[Eelementary]

I love how Benny hits hard but still uses his size to wrap the ball up in a ball-and-all tackle. A superb technique.

 

[Eelementary]

ALways rated him but after his two major injuries i personaly doubted he would ever get as good as he promised.I mean at one stage people where talking origin centre.
I think the move to second row has been great.I mean that would not be easy for him to of done.And he has not realy played many games there-Maybe 15-20

To be fair, that was my suggestion, and it was made quite clear that nobody else agreed lol.

Id like to see him develop an offload in his game.

Developing great, if he matures some more he will be captain.

 

[Craig Johnston]

best transition from backs to forwards i have ever seen.

better than ruben wiki, luke lewis, steve menzies, luke ricketson, tonie carroll or gene miles?

oh maybe you mean at the club?

would still put dan wagon and mick vella ahead.

He popped a couple of beauties in the match against Souths.

 

[Dutchy]

he's one of these blokes who would value a country jumper more than an origin jumper...

They are the best. He's like a mini (bigger) version of me..

 

[Maroubra Eel]

Good bloke. He was at the winsto pub today with hindmarsh cayless and bulldog ryan. Good pub that!

Terry Randall, Ken Maddison were a couple of handy second rowers who started off as centres.

Fui was a winger I think but not with us.
Johnny Morris went from wing to hooker or 6 to hooker.

a centre but good call.....the mount albert express.

and joe galuvao started as a fullback for the warriors if i'm correct.

hookers don't count

I was fairly sure Fui and Tuiaki were both wingers for the same union team many years ago when they were younger...But maybe I'm mistaken.

 

[Hellsy]

and yet... Ben misses out on a country jersey. Go figure.

 

[fish eel]

tbh, he'd have done well getting picked ahead of the backrowers they named. Pretty strong back row

 

[Hellsy]

Yeah, looks like a trial for NSW more so.......

Luke Lewis?

Hardly call it a pub any more. Gone like the fiddler. Boutique bar and restaurant. More metros there than New York City. Whatever happened to the good beer and sports pubs like the Alby, Commercial and the Tollgate?

AND So did Terry Campese and Jamie Soward...Greg Bird must be good....
And if Alan Tongue is not better ALL ROUND value than Willie Mason, then I know SFA...

 

[Maroubra Eel]

FYI Alan Tongue is a joke.
