Farah charged for dangerous tackle

[weststigers4life]

I was just reading on nrl.com that Farah has been charged with a dangerous throw & will get 2 weeks for an early guilty plea or 3 weeks if we fight it & lose.Surprisingly the only other player charged from that game was latimore for his tackle on Benji but he will be free to play by taking the early guilty plea

Can't believe blair didnt get sighted - that is a MASSIVE bullet dodged right there.

Youve got to be kidding ,2-3 weeks .hmmmmm why do i sometimes have the thought about rorts in our game .

 

[weststigers4life]

Same,thought it would of only been a grade 1 charge but with loading for being a repeat offender we would of been without him to

Surprise, surprise, surprise, Gomer Pyle is running the refs and judiciary system, what a joke.

lucky with blair , but i do feel for robbie , if he gets 2 weeks , he will come back fit and strong , will give his sniffer a bit of tme to heal

Besides biting, king hits and maybe head-butting, it seems dangerous throws are the most frowned upon infringement in the game. I'm not shocked to hear he might get 2 games (even for an early plea). To be honest I think the guy could use a bit of a rest, as stupid as that sounds after only 3 weeks.

I thought he was better this week, but still get the feeling he's carrying a niggle.

PS - chance for Moltzen to step up and silence the knockers? :slight_smile: 😛ray:

What an absolute joke any idiot can see that is ridiculous. 3 blatant head shots that actually left players dazed don't get a mention or threat of suspension that were missed by 5 officials. Oh well done Harrigan you really have improved the standard of referees with your ex Cronulla side kick Raper. Appropriate name it certainly feels we have been screwed with our pants on. Is Rothfield part of the review panel as well?

Not deliberate just one of those balance things no lifting just awkward…Farah can have a coulpe of weeks to heal .We have all heard of season how much depth we have so we now can see it.

 

[MacDougall]

We're toast without Farah imo.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

We're toast without Farah imo.

Agreed.

 

[Rambo2714]

I think they will challenge the grading , as has become the norm in these circumstances …...

hopefully they find a way for him to only miss 1 week , that way we will be only be without him agianst the dugan less raiders ...

i think the fact that Ben Horby appeared to dive for the ground made it look worse for Robbie .

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Farah is a warrior. Can never question his commitment.

If others had a go like he does every week we wouldn't have had almost 40 points put on us last week.

He is the least of our problems and I thought last week was his best game for some time.

Wests Tigers skipper Robbie Farah has been hit with a grade-two dangerous tackle charge by the NRL's match review committee.

The 28-year-old has been slugged with a grade-two charge by the NRL match review committee on Monday, and will miss two games with an early guilty plea.

However, should he choose to fight the charge and lose, he could spend three games on the sidelines.

Dragons backrower Jeremy Latimore has also been charged with a grade-one careless tackle from an incident in the same game on Tigers playmaker Benji Marshall.

2 weeks for that and the Dragons grubs get off lightly. Who replaces him in the side for the Raiders game?

Yeh, thats a thought….hopefully he comes back all guns blazing, fully fit and raring to go

Adversity. Makes or breaks you. All these hiccups early in the season will only make us stronger.

Hopefully it makes ALL the other players stand up and be counted. And we'll need a third play maker now, which won't be a bad thing. Will the real Tim Moltzen please stand up?

 

[Moh]

Yah, decision is absolutely ridiculous.

Do we still have George Ndaira?
