we are an impatient bunch here
but it has been a long wait , Ben was hardly sighted in the VFL in his first 2 years due to injuries
then comes the covid interrupted years
With Garthwaite now out of the way he did seem to be more present in the backline
and in 2 games he showed a little dominance one was V Box Hill and the other escapes me
Then in his AFL appearences he very much played his role, but with each game seemed to show a tad more
If Nank, Grimmes , Tarrant , Balta & Soldo are all available at the start of the season we probably wont see him in the 1sts as they are proven at level
But with his experience level now he should be able to have a much greater presence in the VFL , we wait some more
We might be a good bit stronger in the VFL this year which will also help Ben if he is controlling the backline
