Josh Hoffman

Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Wayne Bennett never liked the Broncos! He was a fake!

I remember he would be very critical of his team if they lost.

Off course he would be critical it was his team, he was coach. What a dumb thing to say...
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Did you see Kodi Nikorima and Ash Taylor play on the weekend. They were outstanding, Kodi is like a Milford and Barba, electrifying quick and brings x factor. Ash reminds me of DCE a little, just competes for everything. Both have good passing games and both can kick. Hoffman has none of that....Yes they would need to work on defence but if we are scoring 30 points a game I don't care if we let a try in from time to time. If we bring one off these guys in it should affectively fixed 2 positions. 6 and the 11 (Glenn) was one of the best hole runners in the game when he got clean ball.
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

I think it's time to get this guy out of fullback. Yeah, he can do a nice thing once every few games that make people think he's finally back, but then he continues with mediocrity.

Swap him and Hoffman already. Hoffman is far safer under the high ball, and his kick returns are seriously better. He won't get in the way of attack as much either.

How Come Hoffman hasn't been fried by the media. I've never heard one report blasting the broncos terrible 5/8

Because his a top bloke. I'm being serious, the amount of times I have read reporters on twitter etc. say "... But he's a top bloke" in regards to Hoffman is crazy
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

The one thing that is really disappointing about Barba is his very average kick returns. You would think by now he would have made at least a few line breaks on kick return ,but. I can't really remember any. People keep talking about how much he bulked up since arriving ,which has slowed him down. Is that really true? I can't say I noticed any major bulking up myself , but he does seem to have lost that blitzing speed for some reason,. (As a side note I think Greg Inglis has bulked up too much and lost some speed ). I still think Barba's ankle might be the issue , if so we may have to wait til next year to see the old Barba back. I have really given up on commenting on the ludicrous decision to play Hoggman at 5/8. It's all been said .The 2014 season for the Broncos will unfortunately be remembered as the Year of the Hog!
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Barba:

Average kick return meters: 35 (10th)
Runs 158
Kick defusing 92%
Tackle breaks 24 (2012-163)
Line breaks 2 (2010-25)
Support plays 74 (24th)- 5.3 a game.
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Another Griffinism... Barba's defense has improved, but his attack has gone to shit.
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Lol @ Rothfield claiming Barba is on 700k this year.

Error Page

In his story about worst buys of the season. But then talks about Kennedy in the same sentence as the other Budget buys.

I suppose he needed to increase the figure to give his agenda some more strength or just as another way to have a fig at as.

But as we all know when we signed Barba from the Bulldogs, it was widely confirmed by everyone (Bulldogs and Broncos management) that the terms of his first 2 years were exactly the same as his Bulldogs contract.

His 3 & 4 years may be 700k though

Rothfield is just such a ****. Just a lying fat shit pig of a man. I genuinely hope something terrible happens to him
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

Watching Widdop play. Damn it pisses me off we don't have a 5/8

Was thinking the same thing watching that game. Also crossed my mind watching Sandow and how much fun he has when playing.
 
Re: ben barba/josh hoffman

I'm watching Tony Williams play in the halves for the Dogs and he already looks better in the role than Hoffman.

Shoot me now.
