Quote: tigger19861 "For those people who are quick to judge or comment without knowing all the facts. Ben HAD a shoulder and foot injury a couple of weeks prior to the grandfinal 2010 and had an injection in order to play. The club WAS supposed to have Ben submitted to surgery once the Grandfinal was over for the 2011 season. BUT they did not attent to this until once the season had started. This mean't that Ben was going to miss a few weeks. As for his other injury being his knee it took him 4 weeks from receiving the injury before the club did anything about it ie. scans and operation. As a result of this Ben missed quite a few games. This is a short story of Bens injury and no doubt other players would have been in the same boat carrying injuries. So DON"T BE QUICK TO JUDGE PLAYERS WITHOUT KNOWING THE FULL FACTS.'"
No one at Fax will ever doubt the ability of Ben and he will be remembered fondly, BUT he has, by his standards had a poor season this year.
We here have known about the injuries and have felt for him, but, if Karl thinks it's time to move on, it's time to move on.
Ben has said so himself.
