"Let me tell you something you already know. The world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows. It’s a very mean and nasty place and I don’t care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it. You, me, or nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain’t about how hard ya hit. It’s about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much you can take and keep moving forward. That’s how winning is done! Now if you know what you’re worth then go out and get what you’re worth. But ya gotta be willing to take the hits, and not pointing fingers saying you ain’t where you wanna be because of him, or her, or anybody! Cowards do that and that ain’t you! You’re better than that!" - Rocky Balboa
Wow, that's interesting, no wonder rabbit is not in the tah picture.

Or it means Folau isn't hanging around and they are after another crowd puller. Must have what's left of Enron doing their annual reports and verifying their salary cap...
You have to wonder how Tahs can fit a High Profile signing like Benji Under their Salary Cap.
I cant see the ARU offering a top up for a Kiwi International over the age of 30

would be there marquee or development player unless he has Aus Residency?
“Everyone knows whether it’s rugby, politics or whatever, front-rowers should rule the world, so to have a hooker at the helm makes sense,” Nathan Charles Western Force & Wallabies Hooker.
We are talking about the ARU remember...as Icehouse once sung....Anything is possible!

He should be okay as he played RL for Australian Schoolboys; can't see him being treated as a foreigner. I think the best thing for Australian Rugby if he does switch would be if he came here and played for us. Would give us an attendance boost each week at the very least.
Seeing as salary caps mean nothing and top-ups mean everything...![]()

I think he would have been eligible for Origin if he hadn't played for NZ. Still, I agree with Exile about the age thing.
BM was selected for the U16 ABs however he chose to live and play RL in Aust. at age 15, declining his NZRU selection. So he's a 15yr Kiwi and 15yr Aust.
I think he'll go to the Blues if he decides to switch though.

This would be a great signing, Benji and inglis would be the two league players I would love to see play union. If he plays in Aus even better

Ha ha! You mean all of us foundation members who still have our memberships? Yes, he can partner Matt Giteau and James O'Connor as our inside backline combination next year. Hopefully Matt Henjak can return and provide them with good quality ball!![]()
