Bennett was a Collegians footballer, who spent most of his time with Hawthorn in the reserves, due to the strength of the senior team.[1] He played perhaps his best game, in the opening round of the 1985 VFL season, when he had 18 disposals and kicked three goals against Geelong.[2] He was a member of Hawthorn's reserves premiership winning side that year and tied with teammate Greg Dear for the Gardiner Medal.
