Barba to Broncos

[The.X.Factor9]

How are we even when Hannant was "homesick" too?

It's reported he is getting the same amount, plus Canterbury is getting some compensation money. Kinda bad for Barba if that is true because he won't get the wage increase he is entitled to (beyond 2014) but you can't have it all if you break a contract imo.

Thats good to hear, if he is really going for his family then I wish him well.

Well I wouldn't be reporting he's getting twice as much. Not a good look for Barba or Brisbane. What's the current contract worth?

 

[Packy]

Did Eastwood break contract to leave Brisbane?

Ahh well similar to when Braith left, it will be an easy face to hate. I hope he enjoys playing under supercoach Griffin.

Homesickness is known to go hand in hand with the thoroughbreds.

Can't see it happening. I think dogs have left it a tad late to make a play for Izzy with releasing barba now. Izzy has stated he wants to stay at union.

If the Dogs offer him the same money and a $20 gift certificate to the Body shop he'd take their offer. Mercenary...

I'll go a step further and say they brainwashed Barba with Rupert Murdoch dosing his breakfast with LSD.

I'll be very surprised if Barba is still on 350k a year in Brisbane

I thought Barba was getting like 400k at out club... He might be getting more though.

NSW = A training ground for Queenslanders until they get "homesick".

 

[The Elephant In The room]

Losing Barba and his $350k salary should free up enough cap space for the Dogs to sign Ferguson, Folau and Cam Smith.

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

I'm thinking the Dogs won't get Folau.

They'll get Ferguson and the deck will be shuffled so Morris can play Fullback permanently.

The holy trinity of untouchable players. I reckon we could do it.

Bulldog fans are pathetic. When Barba was winning matches on his own last year, he was the messiah.
He was their pin up boy. Rather than wish him well, fwits like bullfrog farce turn on him. Short pathetic memories.
The Barba move to Brisbane is a difficult one. Dogs fans are entitled to be upset at losing a class player, but it's the toxic environment at the bulldogs that has seen Barba leave. Simply, it's a garbage club in turmoil.
In fighting, scandal after scandal, crowd issues.....it's never ending. Season 2013 has been a disaster, and Barba wants to play at a stable club, with class players on and off the field.
Players are avoiding Canterbury, because they know its a bad career move. The dogs are a disgrace.

Where do you get your infomation from? Barba left because his partner and kids are in queensland, what is this toxic environment thing you're on about?
In fighting... where? Who's fighting with who? First I've heard of this.
Scandal after scandal? After, please tell me what scandals?
Crowd issues? I haven't heard of any in a long time, in fact I can't remember the last time. Please tell us?

Now we're even for Greg Eastwood.

You let Greg Eastwood go to ESL. When he couldn't get a visa at the last minute we were basically the only club that could fit him in under the cap

 

[ceagle]

Who is there for the Doggies to sign? Falou staying in union, Tomkins staying at Wigan. Are they gonna go for Fergo? Do they believe Morris can make the switch to number 1 and be effective?

 

[aqua_duck]

Any team dumb enough to sign Ferguson deserves everything that comes their way

 

[Maximus]

If it is true that he is only on 350k, good to see the Folau-rule doesn't apply to Brisbane :roll:

Did he not sign with Leeds but couldn't go because of a fine and visa problems etc... Bulldogs was his last option, then he went to England for a year and came back!

Good luck to Ben Barba...

 

[mongoose]

overrated. Hoffman is just as good a fullback on his day.

Keep calm and stop talking shit.

Hoffman is a great Fullback but he is no Ben Barba. At least not yet.
