9's

[Nuffs]

I thought it was announced 2 weeks ago that Barba would be playing. can't remember where I saw it, and haven't seen anything about it since

99% I saw it though!

I read that Flanno wants to give guys new to the club a run to help with cohesion.

Barba will be there for sure, barring an injury.

Edit: just listened to a Flanno interview from the first day back to training - Wed 7th. He said he won't risk Barba in the 9s.

Yeah I read the same thing.

Something to do with him playing for the indigenous side and not the 9's

 

[Special K]

Flanno said he wouldn't risk him on Sharks TV... The same day Barba said he would love to play.

I think he is playing the All Stars game over it

There was mention that Barba would actually get a go at the 9's in one article... sorry can't recall where may have been smh... a few days ago.. It was actually in the Sharks news a few dats ago... Barba still in the mix...

I'm not disrespecting my Koori brothers but surely that game has just become a hinderance now?

It was a great concept at the start but now it's just a zzzzzzz

After 200 odd years of domination and maltreatment by one culture of another culture, anything mainstream i.e. the NRL itself, that promotes positive identities and recognises and celebrates Indigenous and Islanders in positive ways has got to be a good thing.

I support the Indigenous game, its about much much more than an actual football game which may well be outside the NRL season and not mean much in terms of the season ahead.

Fair enough to personally think the football game itself is zzzzzzz but I would encourage people to get behind it as a concept. Well done the NRL for getting it up and running again. Totally surprises me to see posts on this forum and the other forum saying this game is rubbish.

Look beyond the footy for a second...

The No Stars game concept is dead.

Barba won't play 9'safter Carney breaking down last year.

I see the sense in that.

We bought the guy for the 26 rounds that come after.

Not carnival days - despite the prize money.

I would go with the fastest players in the club.

If they score 40 we score 41.There's only 9 on the park (despite Frenzy's team) - half a hole and you're through.

If we lose every game who gives a pfhark.

 

[Southern Shark]

Win the Nines and we will attract sponsors.

 

[Card Shark]

Win the 9s & double the amount of silverware in the trophy cabinet ;-)

Why can't we have more?

 

[Mr Angry]

It is a 22 man squad Frenzy.

 

[Mr Angry]

I go 15 backs, 7 forwards

Apparently because we only play 70 minutes a week - when everybody else has to play 80..... They're doing us no favours.

Who won the nines last year?

Bet JT had a whinge anyway.

Did not play.

So they finally win something the time he doesn't play?.... Why's he keep blaming Sydney then ?
