Message: [QUOTE="jamesqld, post: 2785663, member: 8306"] I have been fairly optimistic about this signing. At the least he fills in during origin and is a positive figure to have around at training. He could be entertaining at the 9's too. And its basically on minimum wage. I'm happy with that. However after reading that article and watching the video I couldn't help but get a little excited. The bloke seems to have genuinely come here for all the right reasons. His attitude is excellent, he wants to work with Wayne and Wayne wants to work with him. He will fit in well, he is a great personality to have at the club. I wasn't a fan of how he reacted to the St George offer but he seems to have moved on from the opinion he is worth big money and is very humbled just to be at our club. Benji hasn't been in a position for years where he hasn't required to be "the man", as Bennett refers to it. What ever position he plays, centre or bench utility seem most likely if he is in the team, if Benji actually gets his mojo back it could be a master stroke. We could really give the competition a shake if we are prepared to utilise a playing style to suit the likes of Milf, Hunt, Benji, Nickorima, Roberts etc. When have we ever had that much electric talent in our team? I can't wait to see how he trials. I hope his defence holds up where ever he ends up in the trials. On the other hand I really want to see Kahu finally make the full time move to the centres. I guess it all comes down to training and trials. Experienced depth and some healthy competition for spots is a great motivator, especially when we add in Mead, Opa etc into the loop too. Who cares if we give him a shot at centre or bench utility and he is a flop. As long as he stays positive about it, as i say above I still think he can bring alot of other qualities to the club.
