Bentley-Hape was a cameo member of the 2023 South Sydney Reserve Grade premiership winning squad.
Bentley-Hape was born in New Zealand, and came through the Sydney Roosters junior system, before returning to New Zealand after the 2021 season was once again disrupted by Covid. He was enticed across into the South Sydney system in 2023 in a South Sydney Juniors A Grade feeder arrangement with South-Eastern. Bentley-Hape made his South Sydney senior grade premiership debut in the 2023 Round 20 Reserve Grade clash against Parramatta at the Western Sydney Stadium. In 2024 he appeared in the first grade trial against Manly-Warringah at Central Coast Stadium, before he made his South Sydney first grade cup debut in the 2024 Pre-Season Challenge Round 2 match against the Sydney Roosters at Belmore Sports Ground. He made his first grade premiership debut with South Sydney in the 2025 Round 2 clash against the St George-Illawarra at Wollongong Stadium.
Bentley-Hape is a versatile player with deceptive pace and skills with the ball in his hands and on the foot. He is also safe under the high ball. He has found a home at fullback and on the left wing, after time at centre and five-eighth.
In 2024 Bentley-Hape was selected in the Fiji Pacific Championship squad but did not play a game.
