Lol Mr T.  So if your expectations are met then would you rather him play CHB or CHF?

What I meant was that if he was permanent in either position.
But if I had a choice?
I'd prefer Carey ofcoarse but without the off field BS.
So a Carey like CHF it is.

..... So far we've seen mostly this ....

[Tigers of Old]

I expect.....

Both those players were tough as nails and had a killer instinct to go with their talent.
Not sure Ben has that ingredient..

Still reckon he's surviving in supporter's minds purely on potential. Again today nothing flash. Fine and serviceable as a back up, just like Astbury. I'll take Chaplin, Rance, and Grimes up back any day. And if we went 3 up forward, I'd even go McGuane going by his last few games last season and today before Griffiths.

[WA Tiger]

Should not be down back, get him forward!

Given his age I reckon his rate of progress is understandable. We probably wont see if he will be elite or not until he is 25. My enthusiasm stems from the raw materials he has to work with
