Hits and fights are nice and all but goals and assists would be a hell of a lot nicer.

I like advanced stats as a supportive evidence, but not as crux of the argument as to whether something is actually happening. Much of it is subjective, particularly the stats that Bingo is using to support Bennett, and therefore needs to be judged with that in mind. Bennett’s possession numbers aren’t that great. His scoring numbers are abysmal. His highly subjective ‘scoring chances’ are good as well as his eye test physicality.
