Wayne Bennett makes key coaching decision as Lewis Dodd vies for No.7 jersey at South Sydney.
Master coach Wayne Bennett has made some massive coaching calls throughout his glittering career, and he's about to make another with all eyes on South Sydney's team list on Tuesday to see whether high-profile recruit Lewis Dodd is able to force his way into the No.7 jersey.
"You'll have to read the papers on Tuesday," he said with a grin after the game when asked if Humphreys would keep his job.
Dodd signed a three-year deal to be the club's halfback, but a one-game ban ruled him out of their round one clash against the Dolphins which allowed young gun Jamie Humphreys to come in and show he belongs in first grade.
The one-time Sea Eagles was brilliant on Friday night, kicking for a whopping 711 metres and making 24 of his 25 tackles to put pressure on Bennett to make a potentially season-defining call in the halves.
