Barba = good with ball in hand in broken play. Still needs a lot of work on his defence. I'd still have Snake, Slater and probably that traitorous grub Inglis over him.
He's bascially another Matt Bowen.

Often sides talk up the opposition before they pull a blinder. The bananas are probably just doing a bit of marketing because they are seventh.
Still it is a danger game but we have Lyon and the Stewart's and our halves playing in good form.
All the hype ends at kickoff. It will be satisfying to put the sword to that old foe.

The Bulldogs are certainly beatable, IF you can shut him down or limit his time with the ball.....how a side can do that....not sure...but the one who works that out can beat them!!

So long as we are leading by 30 or 40 at half time I don't think we'll have too many problems.susan said:
True, the boys might try to squeeze in one last lackadaisical effort before buckling down for their finals charge – but I don't think so. I think they have already started charging.

Barba is just like Slater. Fast and evasive and not much else. Barba, just like Slater, doesn't like to be hit hard. Go and watch a replay of the 2008 GF and what we did to Slater in that game and you have the blueprint to beat the dishlickers.

Not many players like being hit hard. And Slater & Barba have a hell of a lot more going for them than being fast & evasive. They seem to have great instincts for where to be and they put themselves in the game nearly every time. (Still prefer Snake though)

I am going to respond to this without reading any of the posts so far.
Yes, no team have talked themselves up as much as the doggies this year. Saints, 2 years ago. Their fans were relentless, and i live in Japan.
The doggies as a team have actually been quite quiet, their fans on the other hand. My question is, can the doggies go up a gear when the whips start cracking ?
