Farah in doubt for Warriors clash.

As if Farah wont play…this bloke is tough as hell....has played one on leg a zillion times and got us home.

I'd put my house on it....calf strain puhlease....

You'd want him at least at 90% Simon

Last thing we need is him missing 3-4 weeks

Maybe Potter feels we can beat the Warriors without Farah

But I understand what people are saying , this is a very winnable game and if we want the Top 8 we have to win the winnable games
 
I reckon if he's not 100% they might save him for manly at Leichaardt the next week. A win there would mean so much for the team, as well as the fans and membership numbers which they need. Given all the drama surrounding the tigers of late, a tough win at leichaardt against manly could do hugely positive things

If Farah is out, i'm gonna guess that Austin might get named on the bench and one of the bash bench will get dropped (my guess is Ava).

Given it would be Luani's first game and match fitness might be question, and that Fulton is out, Anasta might slide into hooker to give Luani a break, with Austin coming on to play 5/8

Thats my guess

I mean this respectfully, tongue and cheek, but I'm glad your not the coach that's for sure

I would rest Farah if he is anything less than 100% for the obvious reasons of him getting re-injured and then sitting out 4-8 weeks on the sidelines.

Sure the warriors will be a tough game, I'm not writing them off because they sit on the bottom of the table but it's not a game that we need to risk players health and safety for.

no dissrespect taken. so what would you do if farah was out and luani was to replace him but couldn't play a full 80 at hooker?

He did last year when he replaced Farah…one would presume he is bigger and stronger this year....
 
Just saw a couple of the boys at Starbucks here in Wellington and went to get my jersey signed.
I asked Farah how he's feeling and he said "ill be alright mate".

Lets hope that wasn't just a pre-empted answer and he is in fact 'alright'.

Luani should definitely replace him as a straight swap. Should still keep 4 forwards on the bench.. At times throughout the match the tigers backs would need to get in and do some more work.. Particularly in coming out of our own half which will relieve luani so that he has more juice to defend.
In attack we will possibly see some more ball movement without Farah there, brooks and anasta to take on more attacking responsibility, but if luani has a chance to run from dummy half he takes it..
That will move there big guys around a lot too.. I don't think too much should change if he is out
