Ben Barba - 2013 Discussion Thread

[wigum]

General discussion on match form, selection, injuries, contracts, and anything else here.

 

[Nano]

This bloke, can anything else be said about him? He is an absolute gun!

He might be having some troubles in his life at the moment but once he picks up and is good to go, the rest of the NRL should be on their toes!

 

[Goz]

stupid rumours that are not true, thats why

 

[RaaYzR]

He said on his Sterlo interview last week that 2012 was only a taste if what he can do and i truly believe him. Just needs to put his demons to rest and regain confidence. 2012 Barba is only a game or two away.

 

[Goz]

2012 barba is when Kas and Graham return

 

[Bakes]

Improved again, so happy he took them on and scored! Growing in confidence weekly

 

[Harby]

I love this cutie <3 #bromance

 

[Mr Invisible]

Slowly but surely getting his head back in the game.

Totally swamped Reynolds when Josh scored tonight hahaha

That was awesome in how much energy he showed with that and him getting that try for us when we needed it must have been a big confidence booster. Was happy with Benny tonight

He's back. Going to destroy the knights next week!!!

 

[Stoofy]

He still seems tentative.

 

[Dogiezz]

Still waiting for him to gain some confidence. Hopefully tonight with that try will bring the old barba back

 

[The DoggFather]

Is it his confidence, or is he carrying an injury?

He was shacking his hand a few times so maybe his finger is still giving him grief.

i dont think so sonny jim. his head is still elsewhere.

its sad to see this thread is only 1 page long this year

 

[w00t]

Noticed him hovering around the forwards waiting for offloads all night, so he's definitely looking for the ball. some decent kicks into the ingoal for repeat sets as well, he's slowly getting there

 

[Indiandog]

... hasnt regained his 2012 speed in attack nor defence, but improving ...hope he produces his best against knights

 

[Sharpy]

He is still lacking confidence, he is isn't quite there hopefully the try and the win, few beers on the plane can bring him back to his best

 

[mearsey]

Still a work in progress I guess , would love to see him attack the ball from kick returns

 

[Stoofy]

Last week he let the ball bounce but he is now catching them on the fly & on the full.

He is coming back slowly much like the whole team.
