Farah

He tried hard but his head wasn't in the right place tonight imo.

How could his head be in the right place after what has happened during the week ?
Why is he the one taking a hit up off our line?
Of course he wasn't 100% but he was still one of our best tonight.

Please god help us poor Robbin. He got caught out slamming potter. He's only shitty because there wasn't a car load in an rx8 or a Subaru on hand to help him fight the battle.

I was shocked that that decision was made by any leader.

2\. The kick angle was a difficult one
3\. Your main kicker is injured
4\. 6 points while 12 off the pace is way better than a 50/50 2
1\. And what should have been the most important thing for a leader to do, is to look like you rate your team, back your team and fire them up for all their worth to get these 6 points like they are going to win the war.

Instead, it was a sombre, we are losers decision.

True. People need to give him a break

Yep….showed just how the weeks affected him, unfortunately it got to him, just how it goes..he'll be back

That was my read on it.

I don't think taking the captaincy off Farah is necessary

Some must have forgotten that he's the one that led the off-season attitude turn around that set us up for the start of this seasons performances.

This is a disgraceful comment. What a piece of work you are.

Not even sure what he was alluding to here. Don't see how his background has any bearing on how he played last night. Might be time to get off the Reschs Ed.
 
With the penalty kick, we had a choice of a difficult kick for 2, or one play to try to get 4 or 6.

Let's say there was a 50% chance of kicking the goal, that is an expectation of 1 (2 x 50%).

There is probably less than 10% chance of scoring a try off that 1 play. Again, if out wide, there would be a 50% chance of kicking the conversion. That gives an expectation of 0.5 (4 x 10% + 2 x 10% x 50%)

I have no problem with the decision taken.
 
Moses needed to give the kick some left hand bias - to at least give chasers coming through the chance to score off the kick - Thats surely the only reason Farah said to take the two - to give our chasers a chance to come through.

Trouble is, Moses sprayed it right, and our chasers got nowhere near it.

i was also disappointed to learn he didn't turn up to the press conference, leaving potter to fend for himself again.. it's very weak..

You might want to take that up with our media manager, it was his decision.

Once again Farah gets attacked without people knowing the facts. The guy is not perfect but FFS, he deserves better from his own fans.

In saying that, this clusterfark of a club doesn't deserve a player of his class.
 
well the media manager is a moron then…

galloways 150th game i appreciate that… but ffs the club has more pressing issues right now.. and after farah taking the day off during the week, you'd think the club would be smart enough to help squash this coaching drama and show unity with him and potter at the presser... so stupid..
 
Seriously after seeing how some of his own fans are treating him i wouldn't begrudge him for walking. He isn't perfect by any stretch and has handled this situation poorly but its a real shame reading some of these comments. Its funny how some choose to ignore all the good one has done and put the boot in based on rumour, innuendo and one situation. Soft. Very soft.

It would be a very sad day if robbie was to leave this club on these terms. Especially considering how our other legend departed last season. Would really show what a poor and amateurish organisation we are if it were to eventuate

I think that sums it up well. He is not perfect but doesn't deserve to have the boot laid into him.

Let's be honest - he is too good for this club.
 
Those saying he's not a good captain. Maybe so. But I can't see him playing for a side being captained by anyone. Even in state of origin where he's VC I think he has just as much control over the side as Gallen.

As player. I'd have him in my side no question.

Side note. I see ch9 is promoting an exclusive interview with him on the footy show this week. For a bloke who wants to be left alone he's surely drawing a lot of attention to himself…
