My grandfather used to say - if you want to get thrown out of Llanelli, tell 'em Phil Bennett is crap

Apparently he found out the hard way

RIP

Very sad to hear this. He was a great man not just a great player.
Recently he had a monument of himself unveiled in his home village, Felinfoel.
RIP and thanks for the entertainment

I popped to the Co-Op in Felinfoel earlier this morning to get some milk and I saw multiple little groups of folk stood around talking about Bennet and his exploits in a red rugby shirt. I expect his funeral to be a massive celebration of his life.

I remember sledging him playing cricket against him when he played for Felinfoel. First one to shake my hand afterwards. A class act and am genuinely upset by the news.
RIP legend.

There’s a brewery there too, known locally as Felinfoul.
