Message: [QUOTE="Rhys van Beurden, post: 2506029, member: 8317"] Off some Facebook page, no idea the source: [COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande]Brisbane Broncos General Manager of Football Operations Andrew Gee tonight confirmed widespread online rumours the club is on the verge of pulling off what is being touted as one of the biggest signing coups in the club's history; the imminent signing of superstar back Ben Barba.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande]Speaking from the Broncos headquarters at Red Hill, one of the clubs favourite sons, Gee was being anything but coy in regard to rumours swirling in league circles today that a deal with Barba had been completed. Grinning wildy as he spoke from the queue in the clubs buffet-themed dining hall, Gee was refusing to take all the credit for the deal which will see the excitement machine don the maroon, yellow and white from 2014.[/FONT][/COLOR] [COLOR=#333333][FONT=lucida grande]Whilst it is believed Barba is keen to arrive in the QLD capital to be closer to his young children next year, the opportunity to be mentored by head coach Anthony 'Hook' Griffin is thought to be a critical factor in the flashy fullback making the trek north for the next 3 years. As Gee pointed out, "players view us as an attractive proposition in terms of not only how well the team is coached, but also how effectively the club is managed. The club is expected to announce the signing officially after this weekend's round. [/FONT][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
