Farah to SOUTH SYDNEY in 2017..OFFICIAL..

[supercoach]

I see Taylor's strategy as one way bet - everything to lose and nothing to gain. He does not gain anything by dropping Robbie but stands to blow our best chances at the finals. Plus divides the fans when everything was going fine. I think almost the whole board was supportive of Robbie finishing the season in FG after his last few games. Is he trying to prove something?

Pascoe after forcing Taylor to appoligise earlier this year now seems to be backing Taylor 100% and the board also seem to behind Taylor. To me that indicates there is a lot more to this than we are being told. Could be wrong, but I think something has happened behind the scenes to cause this blow up. Iam only guessing but after a peace settlement was brokered earlier in the season,maybe Farah gave some assurances about his plans for 2017 and than renigged. Got to be a reason other than his football ability

Maybe I was missing something but I never saw Elijah as our next saviour, he was worth **throwing Robbie overboard** for.

Struggling and grasping in the swelling, swirling waters?

I will have you know that I topped the descriptive writing essay in matric exams half a century ago. Was an essay about a drug trip influenced in my Sgt Peppers album I was crazy about at the time.

Sounds like an interesting read. I was thinking you must have had some kind of maritime mishap.

Would be too much of a yawn if I collaborated about that

What would happen if Farah turned up at reserve grade and played exactly to Taylor's script? Taylor would have no option but to put him back in the first grade side. If he didn't, Taylor really would lose the dressing room because the team would see that Farah is really having a go. As it stands, no one on the team seems all that fazed by it. Maybe they know something we don't.
My point is, if Farah really loves the WT as he says, he'll do whatever he can to regain the first hooking spot. If he does that he doesn't have to go anywhere. There is no drama.
Respect is a two way street.

**I think it's pretty clear that Robbie isn't getting picked in the team based on something personal or something that he has nothing to do with.**

Robbie has been great this year. I even heard JT state how good he played in a game earlier this season.

Yes Robbie can just turn up and play reserve grade and try to force his way into first grade. I honestly think that is what I would do. The problem is that he is getting crucified for doing this. The guy can't win.

You're a funny fellow steve…have you got facts to back that up...?

Yes I do. I watch the games and Robbie appears to be a better dummy half then our other options. Compare that to the anti-Robbie comments.

Notice that I also posted the team list for reserve grade that has one Robbie Farah in the team.

I am funny as well - thanks.

Oh so your opinion is fact…

No. I didn't state that. What I said was that I actually have seen Robbie play and compared him to Halatau, ET, Ranking and Liddle at dummy half and drawn a conclusion that Robbie is the best option for us at dummy half.

The difference between that and the theories that Robbie runs the media and he has backstabbed all these coaches and blah blah blah is in my opinion pretty significant. Each to his own though.

Consider these two sentences and identify the difference:

1\. I think it's pretty clear that Robbie was involved with the removal of Sheens and Potter.

2\. I think it's pretty clear that Robbie isn't getting picked in the team based on something personal or something that he has nothing to do with.

Seems like no would've been a shorter answer…

My earlier post was supposed to be a rhetorical question - was he worth throwing…... - but my computer full of salt corrosion keeps carking it every 5 mins so I am sort of swirling waters myself

Yes well fortunately (?) stoners no longer mark exam papers.

There is a massive difference. Point 1 can be backed up with what ???? Did you see it happen ? Where is your proof ? Point 2 can be backed up (it is an opinion as I said above) based on what I've seen while watching the games.

I could be wrong in both instances but at least I haven't made something up to justify my opinion.

 

[GNR4LIFE]

The couple idiots that have invaded this forum the last couple weeks is a snapshot of what of people are like with their comments on Facebook. It's a real cesspool.

I think the guys who know for a fact that Robbie has screwed coaches over now and in the past on here are just as bad. Where are the facts ? If they exist no problems. If not then what sort of a person says stuff like that.

It's no more speculative than those questioning JT's real motives for dropping him.

Not really. If you watch footy you can see how good Robbie is. You could also state that he has just played SOO and did well in that environment. It's not perfect but it is a pretty good argument.

Let's compare that to the counter argument regarding Robbie being the devil. Where are the facts for that ? Where is any rational argument ?

It's still just your opinion.

There is no difference. Both statements are opinionated conclusions based on the interpretation of information available.

This is steve

Steve has no facts

Don't be like steve

I don't see that at all. It's fine to disagree with me but one opinion is based on something that can be verified the other opinion has no backing whatsoever. I can state go and watch the game. The counter argument is I heard from a friend.

I just read TigerTorchs post though and it appears the whole Robbie debacle is just about getting his massive contract off the books as quickly as possible. It has nothing to do with performance.

Read it again Steve. I think you might have missed something. Or you are being selective?

The club is crying poor mouth but we can afford to pay $600,000 for Farah to play against us and, on top of that, pay someone to replace him…Daniel Mortimer.

again the club feeds us all this bullshit no cap space, yet we want a crap player like mortimer to go with the great player ballin, come to think of it were is he, thats right still injured and we are still paying him no matter how much we are still paying. yet we want to piss of the SOO HOOKER who makes 50 tackles a game, but that all good because we have such a great defence, really were are the second worst, well knock me over with a feather. JT is a goose.

I just quoted the section from his post in that thread. I'm definitely not being selective. This whole situation always smelled funny.

False.

Are you saying this whole thing with Farah is an elaborate conspiracy to get Farah off the books?
