Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 2844612, member: 1899"] I just remember Brisbane went from having Wendell Sailor, Lote Tuqiri, Chris Walker & Justin Hodges to Scott Minto, Stuart Kelly & Craig Frawley and it was like what the hell happened. Kelly had been there before, but as soon as he grew his hair out and became more recognisable it really highlighted how far the mighty had fallen. In fairness to Craig, after a rough start he began showing signs of improvement. He came up with a try-saving tackle on Matty Bowen which sealed the match for Brisbane late up in Townsville and he found his feet. Right as he was beginning to look like a handy first grader, he suffered a season ending injury and get snapped up by the Raiders. Like a lot of players, he never found his feet there and eventually signed on with Brisbane. He was a really handy player to have around the Origin period, but like so many others I think he suffered an injury and that was the end of him. My only recollection of him was this game at Suncorp where he decided to hold the ball in one hand like Sonny Bill Williams and gave half the crowd a heart-attack. Scott Minto, Craig Frawley, Nick Emmett, Leon Bott, Kaine Manihera, Reece Robinson, Tame 'Gary' Tupou, Lachlan Maranta, Aaron Whitchurch, Tautau Moga...Bennett definitely has a type. Accept - '07 was one of the worst seasons I can remember, not just for the Broncos but in general. So many clubs were dealing with upheaval that the gap between the Top 2 and the rest of the competition was staggering. In the end the season came down to an unconvincing win over Canberra at Suncorp and the Knights scoring two late tries to sink the Tigers. That last round game between Brisbane/Parramatta is one of the weirdest 'hidings' I've ever seen. [/QUOTE]
