    Who????
    Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.

    yeeeesssss, I remember him, we used to call him "commando" in reference to the character named Bennett in the Arnie movie. i think he was played by some second rate Aussie actor.

    Another great from Geelong.

    He has never finished lower that fourth in the Knuckey Cup and has been a regular member of our leadership group.

    Says it all. That Knackery Cup is a killer!

    He was awesome in every Port Melbourne game I went to see. He also took upwards of a dozen marks in an AFL game, as I recall. One of my favourite players in recent times.

    I remember Gerald Bennett hit his highest note for the Swans in early 2002, with a particular good game against Carlton at Princess Park in Round 2 that year.

    That's the one I was thinking of. 18 touches, 12 marks, a few hit-outs. \o/ Then they left him on the bench for the next five weeks, and dropped him for Doyle.

    Was also the match where Ricky Mott made a name for himself.

    Bazza kicked about 6 as well i think.
