Good to know that he still has the support of his team mates. I love Blake Austin's quote and seriously believe it gives a good insight into the whole situation:

**"We back our captain 100 per cent and we back our coach [Mick Potter]," Austin said. "It's not what it is being portrayed to be**. We're a happy bunch, we stick solid and we're just working hard to getting 80-minute performances out. We're a young team and that's what we're working towards. **We back [Robbie] 100 per cent. There's no one that's going to lead this team to the future, and no one that's going to do a better job than Robbie. We trust that whatever decision he makes will be best for the team and we just support him."**

lets hope that Blake is right and what Robbie is about to do tonight is going to be the best thing for the team..

What a great guy Blake is he certainly has no issues with authority. :smiley: but seriously tony33 I dont mean to disagree with you every comment but what do you expect players to say in these interviews.They will always say whats right.

Here's the solution:


I dont know if your joking or not but I think Robbie Farah could certainly be helped by seeking help in this regard.He needs to learn how to handle these situations head on as a captain not running and hiding from your team mates and then at the same time going on the footy show thursday night to dump all on your CEO who is from most reports publicly supporting you to the hilt.Robbie is copping a lot of crap at the moment from the media but I just feel its weird that one second hes running from the media but next second hes about to tell all to the media and dump crap on his employers.Hardly the actions of a captain courageous like say Tommy Raudonikis.Gee he even has a migrant name too(for all those fools that have nothing better than to scream racism every time someone craps on robbie)

pretty sick of this whole melodrama to be honest, but will respond to you Jerry.

it was pretty much a tongue in cheek post right at the time farah had the day off training because all the stress was getting too much for him. was simply trying to add a bit of levity to an increasingly eye rolling situation….

Fair call and I know this is something robbie would never do cause hes too proud but I think therapy might actually help him on and off the field.

OMG SERIOUSLY YOU GUYS, ALL OF THIS IS MEDIA HYPE.

Farah has repeatedly claimed that there is no bad blood, that he isn't planning on leaving and that he is on good terms with Potter and so is the rest of the playing group.

WHERE IS ALL THIS COMING FROM. ITS COMPLETELY MADE UP.

Pulling my hair out here

You sure a bright one. Well riddle me this. And to all the Wests Tigers forum members & guests, players, coaches & media - can any of you explain Farah's behaviour jumping the fence. I just want to confirm - is it official that Farah set a precedence in the history of football by jumping over the fence - i won't mention neglecting his duties - we'll let that go - but we won't say anything bad about Farah - he's on our team right - I'll ignore what other fans from other teams are saying about Farah - - none of it is positive - can you believe it - especially after NSW won origin. The most common question I get actually - is he a director or player - and that's not me - that's them.
They said why do their memberships rest on the whims of one player - they said - this is not the Farah they knew. They say much more - but i think you get the gist.
Do you think they know more than us?

Jumping the fence? Which fence did he jump? He still plays for the WT like he always has. Still bleeds for the WT. Still is the glue to our team. Still is our captain.

He had a bad week. Give the guy a break.

Even a fool will know that the media is having lots of fun at the expense of the West Tigers Club.Roachie and everyone else should bite their tongue and give peace a break. Let the players have their football instead of the circus playing out in the public.It is the surest way of getting rid of your sponsors. We all know now, that the clowns are running the football club. Some players are more preoccupied with their own polished profile and the medias are having a ball and all being free for all.

One of the funniest things I've read for ages! Don't really understand it but I'll give it a like, anyway.
