OT- Australian Fullback

[wibble]

With Boyd and Slater both seemingly injured and off the pace, and Barba absolutely killing it in the super league (he is the best player in the competition by a country mile), do you reckon he comes into consideration for Aussie fullback at all?

I would guess no. We generally don't select "barbarians" (with the big Darren Smith exception, I assume we've all heard of that f**ker), and it is a lesser comp he is shining in, and he probably doesn't meet Saint Mal's required levels of "adultness".

So I guess Slater will make it, or Tedesco (who is also not going brilliantly). But Barba is seriously better than these guys at the moment.

No. Not even the slightest chance. Turbo and Tedesco easily ahead of him.

Turbo for me. f**k I wish we had him.

Ha you serious? The nrl broke out in a cold sweat just reading this thread.

Anyone but Tadesco, NRL’s most unlucky player. I can just see the headline. Teddy busts knee while breaking Coopers jaw!

No chance, the suits at NRL will never allow such a thing even if he is scores 12 tries a game. Barba will probably never play in the comp again to be honest.

They didn't pick Ben when in career best form at the Bulldogs. No chance now.. Slater (is he injured?), Inglis, Boyd, Turbo and even Duges ahead of Ben. Teddy too.
Here is the irony. They would probably go Moylan and Holmes over Ben too. Moral is, don't get CAUGHT taking coke.

Dufty?

 

[Frenzy.]

Smell Mafinger would pick a crippled Dariarse before Barba

 

[Foz]

The guy from Newcastle that cost a million bucks is living up to the price tag.
Forget Billy,Teddy etc.
Pick him.(whatever his name is)

 

[Snoop Shark]

Teddy looks a bit lost in his sombrero

Doesn't Turbo have Cedricesque mitts under the highball?
