Thought it was another drug thing. If he has abused his missus well he is def done in the NRL and prob any professional sport... I’m sure the media will def throw the dogs into it from when Greenberg covered his ass
Drugs, drunk, gambling ,wife bashing take your pic. They haven’t reported what it is take your pick unless his tried something new.. what could be next?

Ben Barba sacked by Cowboys, facing assault allegation

North Queensland have terminated the contract of Ben Barba after allegations he physically assaulted his partner at a Townsville Casino on Australia Day.

NRL.com understands Barba was captured on CCTV footage and also spotted by several witnesses, with Townsville police now investigating the matter.

The Cowboys sacked Barba on Friday night.

Cowboys chairman Laurence Lancini said: "When a player joins the North Queensland Cowboys he agrees to abide by the terms of the contract.

"After an internal investigation, it has been determined that this player has acted in contradiction to both the terms and the spirit of that agreement. Accordingly, the club has terminated his contract and has informed the NRL's Integrity Unit."

Barba was attempting to revive his career in the NRL after a stint in the Super League following his sacking by Cronulla after the 2016 grand final win for a second positive drug test.

Quoted:

"He was drunk and being both physically and verbally abusive with his partner at Townsville Casino in the company of both Justin O'Neill and Te Maire Martin who both stood back and did nothing. He then tried to play the "Do you know who I am" card with Security who told him to piss off or they'd call the cops and media. On hearing the word media he shut up and left lol. Heaps of video evidence"

A guy on social media is saying his son is a security guard and that Barba assaulted his missus again. I knew this worm didn't change.

Will Greenturd give him a reference?
Let’s see what Greenturd does.. within 48 hrs greenturd acted on the bulldogs for mad Monday with a fine: remember didn’t even give the so called Integrity unit a chance to investigate. Let’s not hold our breath I will bet his statement will be “the integrity unit is investigating” rubbish.
