Talk:Berrick Barnes

Broncos
It doesn't make much sense to say "He was released as he was not seen as good enough to gain a slot in the first grade squad", if he chose to leave the Broncos after a his first run-on start as a teenager ROxBo 18:40, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

Played Hooker for Junior Kangaroos
The Sunday Mail reported Barnes's position was at hooker in Lae (as cited in the wikipedia main article).
 * Barnes was selected alongside a host of current Test players in a Kangaroos Invitational XIII side that thrashed Papua New Guinea in Townsville earlier this month. He went on to play a starring role for the Junior Kangaroos in their 52-24 win over the Kumuls a week later in Lae...
 * Barnes played hooker in both outings in the coveted green and gold jersey and impressed onlookers with his slick dummy-half work.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.112.9.194 (talk) 22:35, 11 January 2013 (UTC)

 * What wikipedia main article? What article in the Sunday Mail? Perhaps he did the "dummy-half work", yet it appears odd to write Hooker, with its emphasis on packing in the middle of the scrum's front row. wcrosbie (talk), Melbourne, Australia 23:19, 11 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Wcrosbie, apologies as there was an error in the citation, this is now amended. See, paragraphs 19 to 23. He most certainly packed into the scum as the hooker, although, as you say, the main role of the hooker is as dummy half. Also see Malcolm Knox paragraph 20: But as a rugby league player, the furthest Barnes had travelled was to Lae, in Papua New Guinea, as hooker for the Young Kangaroos. He had the wanderlust, and it wasn't to pack into the scrum. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.112.9.194 (talk) 11:13, 12 January 2013 (UTC)


 * Wcrosbie, in rugby league a hooker is a half type player - much more like a rugby union halfback than a rugby union hooker. Mattlore (talk) 04:30, 12 January 2013 (UTC)

Nicknames: Barnesy, Barnsy
The following nickname are listed: Barnesy, Barnsy, Bez, Staffy

Deans said. "... Credit to Barnesy ..." (Courier Mail)

Is Barnsy also used? or would Barnesy suffice?
