So the million dollar question is can Barba play 5/8? I think if he does have good enough kicking and passing skills then why the hell not? Between Hunt and Barba, you might have enough ball playing. Let Hoffman do what he does best which is defend and run his ass off. If they then snag Millford, then we can have the conversation of who goes where.

Barba won't be playing at 5/8th. He'll be at Fullback. If we don't secure Milford from Canberra, I would expect Prince to be told he can stick around, going by his recent form.

On the Kennel some dogs fans want a player swap.

They want Hoffman & Gillett for us getting Barba.

Barba will be fullback without a doubt. If Milford sits out the year next year Prince will be in the halves with Hunt.

Agreed. If Barba is destined to be a top notch 5/8, playing fullback and chiming in to the backline at will will develop those skills over time, just like locky did. He is far too good at his preferred position to not put him there. Gee I wish locky would start mentoring our playmakers in some shape or form at red hill

I'd love for Locky to get a bit more hands on wiith our young halves.

Haha they are massively deluded. Not as bad as the GH though. They think we should compensate them with hannent, Hoffman, gillett, McGuire and macca for Milford... Yeah seems fair

If you want to have a laugh have a look at the conditions some idiot from the kennel wants in regards to a transfer to the broncos.

1) Barba to put up $100000 security and is placed under a gag order. He is not allowed to talk publicly about our club, it's players or staff and the circumstances of his departure. If he does he forfeits the money.
2) Brisbane pay bulldogs 5% of their gate takings and 1% of any new sponsorship until Barbas contract would have been up at end of 2015
3) Barba is not allowed to play against Bulldogs until 2016
4) Any home games against the Bulldogs the Broncos were due to have in 2014 or 2015 are automatically held at ANZ
5) Barba personally pays back any portion of his salary he was paid during his suspension/rehab
6) Barba can sign 4 year, upgraded contact but any amount over what he would have been paid by the dogs in 2014 and 2015 goes directly to our club whilst still coming off the broncos cap. Barba and the Broncos must make their books available for assessment by a financial firm of our choosing

Yeah righto whilst we are at it might as well give them the 11 secret herbs and spices used in KFC chicken!

Mate, you need to check the thread before posting, to make sure it hasn't been posted already. I had already posted that stuff last night... :winky:

Greg Inglis here we go again.

Sydney team sees chance to put "rich" Broncos over the barrel.

Brinksmanship ensues.

Broncos walk away "no player is bigger than the club".

Bulldogs see that they're aren't going to get their ridiculous position met by the market.

Titans/Cowboys/Souths get Barba for the same terms as the Broncos offered.

Their a whole new level. I love that 'The Greatest' has been no where to be seen. Although school has been back for a while so he could just be busy with homework, I remember grade 12 was a big year

This is what I've been saying all along - no one wants a player at a club who does not want to be there. Canberra need to recognise this as well. While the Bulldogs are handling the Barba affair quite well, the Raiders have caused a PR disaster.


Yep. As Porthoz posted, some people in the Nation's capital will even go under the knife to protest.

What the fork!?!?!

Anyway, my counteroffer for compensation to the bulldogs would be:

1 cases of flares, 2 boxes of roofies and twelve knuckle dusters.

Anything more than that is too rich for my blood.

Okay, two cases of flares.
