Celebrate one of the finest players ever to feature for Wests Tigers with Life Member Robbie Farah's Testimonial Night, presented by leading sporting events company Two4Seven.

With an illustrious 17-year career in the NRL, Farah famously retired in September 2019. Starting and ending with his beloved Wests Tigers, the highest try-scoring hooker of all time and forever fan-favourite has not only exemplified what it means to be a Wests Tiger, but also represented the South Sydney Rabbitohs, Australia, Lebanon and the NSW Blues with great honour and excellence over the years.


Now it’s time to get together and celebrate, as we look back at his great contribution to Australian sport and commemorate the unwavering passion, commitment, creativity and competitive spirit he brought to the field on every occasion.

Hosted by rugby league icon Phil Gould, the event will see a panel of former coaches and teammates, speed painted Brad Blaze and magician Marcus Luc entertain the crowd from start to finish in a night to remember.

All tickets include a three-course meal, as well as fully catered beer and wine.

Please see below for all event details and seating packages, with a special discounted rate available upon enquiry for 2020 Wests Tigers Members.

To purchase, email jai@two4seven.com.au or call 0400 003 001.

Jeez this will likely cost us another salary cap hit.

The Dress description confuses me, my lounge suit is sitting around in a pair of undies, but not sure anyone wants to see me in public wearing that, particularly if food is being served

I know a painter that's heaps better than Brad Blaze..

They wouldn't give him a testimonial game ... unlike someone else we wont mention who got one... and is still playing 2 years later.

Of course its for a cause - The Robbie Farah Super Bowl/FA Cup Final Fund.

Fan of Robbie but this seems tacky. I dont know why. Maybe its the norm.

Pretty standard to have a testimonial dinner for long serving players when they retire - went to Wayne Pearce's one back in the day. Acknowledgement of their career, and service to the club.

It's that it's being organised by his own company that's the tacky part.

I tend to agree with this....it looks like Farah has asked the club if he could do a night celebrating him, and get his company to do it.....

I doubt highly it was like that.....but it doesn't seem to sit right.

Don't see how it matters who organises it people will either want to go or they won't.

so the company that Farah owns organizes his own testimonial dinner at the club and it doesn't strike you as a little odd or tacky??

Looks like a brown paper bag deal to me.....

If I wanted to support something for Robbie Farah and he has shares in the event company hosting why would that make any difference? They are still going to have to pay for catering, staff, speakers, entertainment, etc like any event company. If he gets a kick back after that isn't that what it is all about? It's there for all to see.

Wrong.

Club is not allowed to organise it, otherwise it would count towards the cap.

If you're going to be dirty on anyone, be dirty on the NRL for the inconsistency around this.

Cam Smith gets a testimonial years before he retires (Plus his missus gets a ring) yet Robbie has to arrange his own....

Bingo! Some people on here would complain that the person in the coffin was not cold enough.
