Bentley thinks friend Weir would have enjoyed codes clash

Dual code international John Bentley says he believes his old friend Doddie Weir would have loved the spirit behind the 745 Game this Sunday at AMT Headingley. 

Dual code international John Bentley, who played for Leeds between 1988 and 1992, was a team mate of Doddie’s with Newcastle and the British and Irish Lions.

Weir became a mentor for Rhinos legend Rob Burrow when Burrow was diagnosed with motor neurone disease in December 2019. In November 2022, Weir passed away just a week after setting off Kevin Sinfield on his epic Ultra 7 in 7 Challenge to raise money for the MND community.
