Thats what everybody was crying for?

His missed tackle on Chad Townsend was bad, and costly. - however he made several classy 1 on 1 tackles in the middle in the ruck on players such as Mautalino, and Mannering.
Trouble is with Farah his standard is so high, when he mucks something up you REALLY REALLY notice it.

Robbie deserves to be in the team however he should not be captain. His body language and leadership is disgraceful.
Who replaces him I'm not sure however anyone with energy and enthusiasm will do.
He's the last of the old boys club when he goes I won't shed a tear but for now given our cubs need every bit of experience they can get he's needed.

He should be captain as he is most qualified for it and loves the jersey. However, he missed two critical tackles last night that led to important tries. He would have blown up if the younger kids made these sort of errors. This is not good enough from a senior player and I think it reinforces JT's position that he needs to have a short break during games.
FT,if I may,I choose {c},I think JT has given Robbie a different role to his normal, play it as he sees it.
Robbie is giving the halves their leeway to play the structure prepared by JT,this is what I think has Robbie out of sorts so to speak,letting someone else try and dictate the play..the young ones arent quite coping as well as would be expected and Robbie is trying hard to make things work..hence the not so good performance….Robbie has had some issues,but the team and club has always come first,the odd poor performance can be forgiven...the good ones far out way the bad....

I think Lawrence could have been captain by now if it wasn't for his hip injury. Apart from getting amnesia about his ability pre-hip dislocation, people also forget that Rowdy was being groomed to be the clubs next captain.

If Farah wasnt the incumbent is his form good enough for Origin this year.

Of course it is good enough.
One missed tackle….he didnt dog it got stepped one on one near our line by a 6.......lets hang the bloke.
He still made a zillion tackles, and made the line break and offload for our first try.

I would say no but there isn't any other New south Welshman number 9 who is playing well? Well maybe there is but Origin is another level for an inexperienced hooker to come in. Ennis has no chance IMO.
Other candidates include:
Michael Lichaa
Nathan Peats
Mitch Rein
Maybe Daley has already told him he will be there?
Good question tiger in the gong

I think farah and Moses are the only two players capable of not letting go of the sheens farah Marshall era that was play what you see and back yourself despite rest of the team. Moses has backed off a lot more with his all or nothing plays since jt come I'm but farah and Moses are the only two with big enough egos to not let go of the being a hero every game like sheens days. Moses is a big mouth or confident what Eva u want to call it but perhaps his not happy not being centre of attention he would of been with Sheens and potter. Only speculating. Thoughts?

None of those have shown enough to say they are a better option than Farah at this stage.
City Country might throw up someone as a candidate.

Qld will pick a player from reserve grade and show some loyalty and they usually have a blinder .
We start looking to replace anyone who has a few sub ( his) standard games
Wonder why we struggle against them so much????
He should be there and will be
Still played ok last night.

love how the knives come out after such games for players like farah.
when he was playing is hand too much, hog.
when he was questioning referees too much, whinger.
it's obvious taylor has clipped robbie's wings to let our halves run the game and for good or bad reasons this is the only way our halves will grow and learn.
if farah keeps playing the second halfback role it will keep stunting their progression.
i'm all for robbie chiming in every now and then on the plays and kicks but i think this is the best way forward, been a long time coming.
he's no spring chicken and he's defintely not what he was 10yrs ago but that's what happens unfortunately in footy. can't be at the peak of your game for your whole career.
