After an Academy stint with the Brumbies, Ben moved to the UK for two years to learn his trade playing for the Sale Sharks in the European competition. Closely monitored by then Reds coach Eddie Jones and Australian Assistant Coach Michael Foley, Ben was offered a two year contract to return to Australia with the Reds. Unfortunately two serious shoulder dislocations led to a reconst ruction operation that prematurely ended his season after just three Super 14 games.
