'ex' Barrett's Bulldogs

Bennett never got it wrong with Ballin. He just had too many hookers in front of him at the Broncos like Berrigan and a guy called Michael Ennis.

Ballin was a very good hooker but hardly a world beater - but boy could he tackle and get good quick passes out to his halves.
Matty Ballin was not a world beater. However he never gave ness than 100% percent. Very rarely injured & one of Manly's finest... Along with Wolfman the most underrated & best Manly players.

From memory ballin was a lock in juniors, didn’t really play hooker until Des. Bennett didn’t see him as anything more than a tough tackling reserve grade lock.
 
I reckon after he's sacked from the dogs that'll be it for him. No other NRL club will hire him and his excuses as a coach. Off to England Trenty will go....bye bye
