Message: [QUOTE="Oztintin, post: 2587398, member: 8648"] I agree with you, it will take time for Barba to adjust to the type of football that Griffin has the team playing (bland) but I don't see the teams current style as complex, so how long should he be given?. They certainly aren't playing as a well oiled machine, most of the attack this year has been from individual touches of brilliance, not too many set moves or play.Arguably this has a lot to do with the ball being killed by the 5/8. Barba has been given a free roaming roll by Griffin to inject himself when he wants, this is no different to Haslers tactics. Barba is capable of a whole lot more, he is being found out positionally week in week out, he's lost his confidence with the high ball and his errors are frequent and uncharacteristic. Now we are talking about a player whom is tauted as a origin player and a former Dally M player of the year. These type of players shouldn't need time to "perfect" their game, you don't get a chance to do this if selected for Qld or Australia. Great players perform regardless of the team. As for the money that he is on, correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it in the order of 350k +/- endorsements, I'd hardly call this chicken feed. [/QUOTE]
