From his obituary:
n an age when international rugby was played less frequently, Bennett packed two Five Nations Grand Slams and three Triple Crowns into his 29 Wales caps.
That’s some record

Retired before he was 30 and only ever played 29 game for Wales.
Didn't like the English much.
Best known for his famous sidestep and swerve.
RIP Phil Bennett

It’s very easy to say retire to early but these guys were amateurs. Often juggling jobs and family around in order to play rugby.
A magical era of rugby
