Ben Barba

[COMMANDER]

May be the top tryscorer, but he is a bigger speed bump the Benji! Watching the replay now and he should just run to the sideline when they are in defense!

Loved watching big George smash his way over the top of him last night. Reminded me a little of T-Rex v Billy Slater last year.

was a speed bump in Roses, Wolfmans and Lyons tries.

then ran away like a little chicken when he scooped up snakes error.

shoo fly!!!

He's only little fulla.... 90kgs vs 130 kg of Georgie.
Regardless of his size, I love our blokes pushing the other team out of the way!
"Eh kid.... puk off!"

BTW Clit.... those durries were good!

watched the game last night with bulldogs mates and they were predicting him to have a blinder. warned them all he was going ot have a target on his head cause he cant defend for sh*t. lol, i had the last laugh

I thought last week's game against the Broncs was more exciting but the defense against the dogs was superby bone crunching and dominate.

I said WOW when we beat Brisbane but a double WOW WOW for the wing against the dogs.

I think the dogs needed some toilet training after that game - they literally messed themselves.

Seriously, what chance did Barba have when they were smashed all over the field. He is like Preston and Bowen - great attacking players but need space to shine. I thought he was OK.
The best by far was Andrew Ryan - and now the Dogs are talking about punting him! Gee, I think that's tough. He has been a workhorse for them for 10 years.
I dislike the Dogs as much as anyone, but I can admire good players from other clubs.

 

[MK Eagle]

He is what is classed as an NFL player because he is a specialist attacking force & nothing more - still believe he is a potent force who looked very average against some of the best defence seen this season.

 

[DSM5]

I thought Ryan was ordinary. No one shone out for the Dogs. They had very little go-forward and their backs were crap. Just didn't threaten all night. That they were so bad surprised me.

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

So people rate Barba as crap because he couldn't stop George Rose 1m out from the line or pull Wolfman down 5m out from the line ?
