this thread is insane lol

People really need to get a grip. He's only just broke into our side, yet people already feel he's got a multi-million pound contract in Union waiting for him when he turns 21. Let him get on with his rugby and let him develop, enjoy his performances and stop stirring the future.

Finally a bit of sense, you'd think he'd already changed his name to rupert and crossed codes the way this thread has gone

Heres a little song i wrote,you might wanna sing it note for note
Dont worry be happy,Dont worry be happy now!!!!!

again, on what evidence is this based on
This is a professional rugby league side we are talking about, not picking sides for a school playground kickabout in the dinner break. What if Ben wasn't good enough in the first place. What happens if Ben turns out to be a crock of pooh/has a bad injury/falls out of love with the game.....does Rhys take his bat and ball home?

Ben is a superb player and on Saturday he was presented with the under 20's player of the season for 2010... the very same team that Rhys played in.... He has also been promoted to the first team by Smith.

He hasn't done badly for a tag along has he.

just gone over the AUP with a fine toothcomb and couldn't find anything on locking a thread for loads of muppet comments DAMN YOU AUP, DAMN YOU TO HELL.

NO!!!! If he wants to go then why shouldn't he - Like every other job, individuals have the right to move for more money and a better role if they so choose

Well deserved

I think Rhys has put in some excellent performances so far too but are people not getting a bit carried away?

This is so similar to the way everyone was getting so excited about Penny. Chill out and just see what happens.

And as for Union and/or other teams coming sniping, at the end of the day he's a professional athlete and as such has a right to decide where he wants to earn his living.

Isn't that General Gogol (M's equivalent in the KGB) in the late 70's/early 80's James Bond films

sod his obvious talent
he's dressed like Bill n Ted, and he's growing one of those dodgy "quaker" beards....don't want him

I hope he doesnt do a "Kevin Penny" ie burst onto the scene, a sh*tload of hype, one good season, then thats it. I think if we dont overhype him,there wont be too much pressure on him, and he will prosper.

His game bears absolutely no resemblance to Pennys whatsoever... Thankfully.
