Titans rule out bid for Bulldogs star Ben Barba

[Rodzilla]

Apologies Rod Massoud. Dont forget that you and ~ 3 other Bulldogs supporters on earth will be the only ones happy if Benny leaves our club.
Keyword "IF"
Stop celebrating, he is still with the Bulldogs!

it would be the best thing greenberg ever did, better than the hasler move

THE Bulldogs have warned rival clubs to stay away from Dally M champion Ben Barba.
Coach Des Hasler and CEO Todd Greenberg have made it clear he will not be released.


The Titans and the Tigers are two clubs who are believed to have spoken to Barba's agent Gavin Orr.


There is a thought Barba is on "unders" at Belmore and could earn substantially more at another club.


His current deal was done before he shot to prominence as the game's No. 1 one pin-up player last year. He used to be a heavy gambler and has not invested his football earnings wisely.

Barba is not leaving,end of debate.

ONLY IF Benny leaves for Qld on compassionate grounds. Forget trying to sign Izzy on money we probably don't have and place pressure on a player due to big-money expectations (remember T-Rex signing at $600K pa?). Go after the ACT Brumbies centre Christian Lealiifano. Christian made a very brief 50 second debut for Wallabies last night against the British Lions (got knocked out). Watch him on YouTube - he is a gun and would kill it at centre. Yes he is a centre but could make it at Fullback as could J-Moz or Inu. I am dead-set certain Lealiifano would be a smash-hit in league.

FYI "Lealiifano had an outstanding season in 2012, being named Man of the Match by Super Rugby officials for eight out of the ten Super Rugby games he played. Unfortunately, he suffered a broken ankle in his tenth game which ended his season and any chance of being selected for the Wallabies in 2012".

What part of "will not be released" dont you understand?

It could just be the case that his manager wants to renegotiate a new contract with more $$$$$ so he can cash in on the commission.

[doggieaaron]

This article means nothing really as greenberg has denied a number of things that have eventuated ,i still feel that this is all about money and if dogs upgrade his contract and get him to extend as well ,things will settle down

Tigers made a massive offer to lure Benny on the basis they were offloading Benji

Why are they even allowed to make an offer to a player who is currently contracted to another club. Don't the NRL have rules against this.

Probably because his manager was shopping him in the hope the dogs would up his contract. I PM'd a few people with this exact news weeks ago.

Hey Bakes I only said "IF released". It is great that Todd & Des have warned other clubs away from Benny, however the fact of the matter is that Benny's Manager Gavin Orr knows that Benny can get more money elsewhere. Fact is the Tigers have made a massive offer for Benny although their offer is subject to Benji being released. The Titans and Broncos have also spoken to Orr, although Titans Coach Carty says he is more than happy with Zillman (and who wouldn't be). At the end of the day hopefully Benny is going nowhere but we need to have a back-up plan and I am just saying that the Izzy one will not come cheaply and that there maybe a better alternative.

What part of "will not be released" dont you understand?

 

[Bulldog wazza]

just hope Gav knows loyalty should be a two way street. Our club wouldve have learnt from SBW and co who left earlier. Bennys a great young kid who has many years ahead to develop as a player and man. Id like to see the club upgrade his contract and extend to show we want him as one club player like a lockyer, mini etc.

Hmm interesting. His manager is the same guy that SBW dumped ?
