He wasn’t playing more because because he wasn’t better the other centres we had at the time and he couldn’t adjust to the wing. There was probably an opportunity at the time to sell high on one of the other guys and force Bennett into the line-up, but it’s just another example of management missing an opportunity and not thinking long term.
