Jonathan Bennison

Jon’s debut came in 2021, against the Salford Red Devils in a try-scoring performance from the fullback position. An assured display already from the young outside back, the groundwork was already there.

An injury crisis hit the squad in 2022, and with injuries across the backline, and Jon stepped up.

Playing on the wing against Leeds in only his second Saints appearance, he was outstanding, picking up an assist in one of the tries of the season as we nilled the Rhinos away from home.

More stellar performances followed with a try-saving tackle and an assist against the Wigan Warriors at home, and an eye-catching try away at Huddersfield on Easter Monday.

Unfortunately for Jon, he picked up a fractured cheekbone against Castleford, and despite playing on through the injury in the game, it led to him missing a month and a half of the season.

A return to fitness saw a return to the team as he cemented himself into Kristian Woolf’s plans for the remainder of the season, playing a vital role in what became our fourth title-winning season in a row, as he picked up a try in both the Super League Semi-Final and Grand Final.

Jon will wear the number 5 for the 2023 season
