Wayne was right about when to retire.
Played Touch with and against Benji when he was a 15 year old and he was carving senior rep teams up even then with that mad step and all those crazy skills he took to the NRL.....not many can say they changed the way the game could be played.....but he was one of the few.
Shauns great at getting the insight u wouldnt otherwise get from players and ex players. U really notice they just open up more with him....especially on that Fox panel when their interviewing a player after a game and each host ask's their questions and get a pretty stock standard answer.....the moment Shaun gets to them u can see their guard drops straight away and they open up......think its the recently retired thing so they know he knows where their coming from, plus the amount of respect across the NRL for what he acheived and did in the game is obvious.
Really love the Wayne Bennett stories......damn that old codger"s the GOAT.

Funny when he says "is this the universe telling me to unretire?"
Then I go home and uppercut myself and say shut up. Hahahaha
I enjoyed the Benji interview .
He’s still animated when he talks about moves he’s almost standing up doing flicks and sidesteps - he certainly did change a lot of kid’s behaviour and the Benji step and haircut were definitely popular

Lofi backs his speed and hot damn, he's right. Gosh he can fly
Cool guy and unnaturally gifted at finding the line, there’s plenty of fast players who don’t have nearly his conversation rate, could become a real cult hero.
Cappy should do all his shopping from the titans discard bin.

60.games. 61 tries.
Who? Who in their right mind has that strike rate while spending a bunch of time in a shit team's reserve grade?
I celebrate that we have this potency in our backline. Yikes that's frightening.
I seriously hope he has a long career and runs all try scorers down. While wearing our jersey

Baha I had a laugh too.....there are some very articulate boys in our team and Lofi does not appear to be one of them. Not sure if he was nervous being on camera but he seemed to struggle to articulate anything meaningful, and mispronounced Chanel's name
