I would not play him. Could be another Harry Seijka scenario. Bought him for NRL ended up getting injured in his first Cutters game. Not worth the risk.

I don't think he was as bad as many have made out; he will get better no doubt. I agree with Red though, he is overweight and has been for a long time. He should slim down and use the speed and evasion that was always his strength. The ball playing should play second fiddle to the running game for Benji!

that's the problem.

his strength of running / evasion is behind him. he is not an organiser & never has been.

Thought he did quite well considering it was his first run with a new team which is down on confidence.Rather he trains with the team rather than play for the Cutters,both he and the team need to familiarise each other.
Always thought his stepping style may slow down with age,but his style of taking the line on is what we have been waiting for a long time from a half.
