Let him have it. Can’t do much worse. The club would not be worth much anyway.

I'm not supporting the status quo; I want the Tigers to reach their potential. It's just that Elias is the last person in the world who can make that happen.

Benny has no value to add, he's a tallis old boys model. The tigers is literally the only front office job I'd take. They should be a powerhouse. The pathway is so simple. I thought it was self intersted power brokers, now I realise fans are also to blame.

Benny, if only you’d just kicked the damn leather a bit harder back in ‘89 and be done with it. You wouldn’t have needed to spend the rest of your life chasing that one regret.

Benny's not, he never shuts up, would talk underwater.

What a surprise the "status quo warriors" in the Roar comments section as usual :thumbdown: Something has to be done with this club. It's a basket-case and has been for 10 years. If this can be done properly and real change can be enacted then I'm all for it. As far as I can see, only those who want the Tigers to remain a basket-case would be against it.

The sad part about this Benny thinks Balmain still exists and he can restore it to its former glory. The plain truth is as a senior club they do not exist and anything he does would be to undermine the present structure . This guy should not be allowed near this football team as it will end badly.

With Benny's involvement, this could help reduce the amount of clubs in Sydney.

He bankrupted the Balmain Leagues club, while lining his own pockets. He should not be allowed within a million miles of any club
