.One of the greatest rugby players of all time passes away. Incredible player for Llanelli, Wales, The British Lions and the Barbarians. A genius on the field and a true gentleman off it. 

 

Starts the move for this immortal try against the All Black's at Cardiff Arms Park.

Genuine legend. 

Yeah definitely. What an amazing crop of world class rugby players they nurtured down Llanelli in the 70s, started by the fantastic coach Carwyn James. 

 

You can see why Bennett was called  "the player with stardust in his boots"

 

This try is something else.

Good grief, I'd forgotten about that one.

Definitely. Was there for that Barbarians try too! 

Aww fantastic.

 

I didn't realise he was a fine cricketer and footballer. I believe the article below is taken the morning he scored that magical try under the posts at Murryfeild, magical..

Look at the three in that picture. Gareth Edwards, Phil Bennett and Gerald Davies. A trio to put the fear of God into the opposition.
