Wild speculation, unsubstantiated rumours, silly jokes and opposition delight in another's failures is what makes an internet forum fun.
Blessed are the cracked for they are the ones who let in the light.
I guess he could try and get another job. That is a common thing people do when they lose their jobs.
I wonder if he's thought of that. Nah, probably not.
Why was Montagna talking about his wife getting a "sweep" in the first place. Barry was stupid to say it but he was just playing off the situation. Barry isn't the only one at fault here
That's a good question. Presumably he and Barry are in the same "mental league". Barry has been playing the big, tough guy for a long timeOriginally Posted by mattybloods
from the comfort of a nice six figure salary. He only got fired a month or so back, so it hasn't taken long for that façade to crumble.
Barry earned lot of $ in his playing days. He owned expensive houses in Sydney, then in Melbourne. I suspect he has thrown it around like a bigshot only to find it didn't come back with interest. He also has a taste for expensive cars which depreciate rather quickly.
All clubs these days employ financial advisors to get players ready for life after footy. Barry has been quite open about his struggles since retirement - he wouldn't be the only player to experience this.
That and there is a dump button for a reason
Has he got a trade to fall back on?
He can always go on the dole. I'm sure a few of the Bulldogs supporters can help him fill in the paperwork.

Crikey. What has he done with his money? He's earned a income that many people can only dream about, even after tax. Zero sympathy from me. It looks like he'll have to get off his arse and work like the rest of us now.
One silly comment and a club legend is reduced to the "an asshole that deserves to be poor" category.....doesn't take much these days to become an 'outcast' does it? Because we're all perfect? I highly doubt it......
I don't think anyone in this thread has said he deserves to be poor. Rather they have expressed surprise that, after earning a very decent living for more than a decade playing football, he hasn't got some financial resources stashed away. Or some skills and/or contacts that can help him find a way to earn an income.One silly comment and a club legend is reduced to the "an asshole that deserves to be poor" category.....doesn't take much these days to become an 'outcast' does it?

Fair point Liz but some have been less than kind.....

Barry stuffed up, we all agree on that......it doesn't mean he is unworthy of understanding and forgiveness. Everyone deserves forgiveness.
Some in society are quick to throw others on the scrap heap, apparently supremely comfortable with their own 'perfectness'.....
But all those comments relate to his claim his is broke, not to the comment he made that lost him his job.Fair point Liz but some have been less than kind.....
