    Harley Bennell Out indefinitely

    Some media reporting Harley Bennell out indefinantly. 'Calf problems'. When did kids start calling a Coca-Cola problem 'a calf problem'?

    best to keep big statements to a minimum about a players Coca Cola problems.
    They say Burt Lancaster has one, but I don't believe them.

    Fair call. I'm a Diet Coke man myself and I try not to judge.

    Bloody auto correct, or rather auto-incorrect.

    I try for nothing but water for me. Maybe. few cups of coffee or tea a day(cutting that down) and a alcoholic drink a couple of times a year(depends on the company I'm in). I make a point of not drinking fizzy sugary drinks. Maybe a couple of times in summer.

    Maybe he should try that Zero Coke for a change.

    While it's a shame that Bennell is injured and out for an extended period I think Rocket must be happy that the trade went through.
    Injury aside, I'm glad we weren't interested in him when he was being shopped around.

    From memory you were pretty keen for us to land him. Why was that?

    Talent gets you on a list. From there it's up to a guy how far he wants to go. That involves making sacrifices, being disciplined and working hard. I don't think Bennell is that interested in doing those things.

    Well, he had his chance. A lot of players would not get a second.
