Greenberg could be the victim in Barba affair
The publication of a photo showing Ben Barba's ex-girlfriend Ainslie Currie sporting a cut lip and bruised chin could have massive ramifications for the NRL's head of football, Todd Greenberg. When he was Canterbury CEO, Greenberg always denied domestic violence was the reason the Dogs stood Barba down at the start of the season. That's despite that photo doing the rounds complete with text messages from Currie detailing her injuries. Currie has always maintained Barba was not responsible for the injuries and Canterbury seemed happy to go along with her version of events. We have no evidence to suggest she's not telling the truth. But if the NRL integrity unit, which is now investigating the case, finds evidence of a cover up, where does that leave Greenberg? "He'd have to be stood down from his job at the NRL – no question about it," one influential league figure told us. They couldn't retain him." Greenberg, a good operator and a decent bloke, wouldn't be the first CEO brought down by an errant footballer.
