Does Ben Cross feel like a Knight?

This admittedly may be an unusual thought, but I have struggled since Ben Cross joined the club, it doesnt feel to me that he is a Knight. I like Ben Cross, think he is excellent, but he missed so many games last season - it just doesnt feel like he is apart of the furniture like other new players like Vuna, Sau, Wicks, and Housten.
I like how he does all the community stuff and I really hope he plays more for us and become a Knights forward like Parsons, Shiels, Butterfield, Harragon, Peden have been for us in the past. Kinda like cult almost...

I wonder if I am alone in thinking or feeling this? Maybe it is just because he only played a handful of games in 08?

Let me know what u think!
 
Well for starters, I was VERY excited with this signing. He was at his career best with Melbourne when he was bought.

Also adding, I don't think people believe he has only played around 60 FG Games - and that this time 3 years ago he was playing reggies with Canberra.

Being in a Premiership winning team like Melbourne, enjoying so much success warrants him to be an elite forward.

Take him out of that winning team - and we see a different him because of team style and workload etc.

Several injuries disrupted his pre-season and the broken thumb in Origin series didn't make alot of people happy because he hardly ever played for the Knights.

It's hard to think that Crossy isn't regarded a Knight but Danny Wicks is?

He may have had an average 08 season by many peoples expectations - but I think he just needed to find his feet.

2009 will be his year.
 
yeah the way he fires gallen and gets the team moving is exceptional. But Simon Degois ( little Brother in year 7 at my skool ) got me ISSAC's signature :)
