Why are so many people sticking up for Jason Taylor?
What has he ever bought to the Tigers?
No one knows what's going on and immediately crucify our club captain and life member?
Makes me wonder…..

They support the club and the decisions it makes, the club decided on Taylor as coach, supporters may not agree but they support the decision, as for what hes brought?
What did Sheens bring in one year, what did Potter bring in a season…things dont change overnight, theres a value called patience

Very poor of the NRLPA to commission farahs lawyer to do the report. How could anyone take it seriously? Surely the NRL would look into this use of the associations money.

The longer this Ayoub / Rothfield attack on our club continues the sooner I see the back of Farah the better!

Me too. The sooner i see the back of Robbie the better … Love his shapely "Derriere." :mrgreen:

Pretty sure Sheens moved Senter on to make way for farah at the end of 2004\. Senter was club captain at the time and went gracefully. There are similarities

its mind boggling how many people on here are drinking the Farrah/Ayoub cool-aid.

Farah's Lawyer is somehow an independent party, and the report is leaked to Ayoubs favorite journo scum ends up in the press…

It is cringe-worthy that some of you are lapping this up.

Nothing wrong with " lapping " it up is there?? After all it's the off season, and there's nothing else to lap up. :laughing:

The sad thing all this press is doing our club so much harm. It really doesn't matter who is right and who is wrong or if the articles are based on fact or fiction. The bottom line mud sticks and our club is now in real serious trouble,we are now on the nose in the NRL world.

What's the answer?????Who knows but maybe both Farah and Taylor need to walk for the sake of the club but a very least one of them

The answer is, to win more games then we lose in 2016, then everything will be Hunky- Dory. :smiley:

**It has been reported in the SMH as well as the DT.** I'm not surprised the Taylor apologists and spin party are attacking the messenger rather than accepting there could potentially be some very serious issues if what alleged is true. In saying that, I have confidence that Pasco as a relative new comer to the club and professional will deal with the problem and resolve it.

So what, both have the same tainted report as the source.

I've asked this question before, which sports journo or paper is's up to this forums idea of a reasonably reliable reporter ??
No matter who writes anything even mildly critical of this club, the howl goes up that that particular journo is a biased no hoper with a hatred of WT.
Surely they all can't be absolutely void of any literary scruples.
There has to be at least one who is even only slightly unbiased with his reporting.
Or is it that the entire Rugby League community( including ,newspapers,journos, radio commentators, Lawyers , referees ect. Are all biased against this club

Or is it that our club is really still badly run , and still find it hard to handle situations as they ( so often ) occur, as well as other clubs seem to do,
Hope someone can help, as I'm running out of papers to read and/or tv stations and radio stations to listen to

Weidler and Rothfield in this particular case. Your thoughts on them as journalists?

So the NRLPA looking after its members' rights and conditions is poor?

It is long overdue that if behaviour or threats to those rights and conditions have been made then those responsible should be held to account.

So you think using Farah's Lawyer to do the report makes sense?

Is she his Lawyer, or did Farah see her because he , like most players were being interviewed for the report. ??

She represented him in the meeting with the club to clarify the ' reddy/ playing reserve grade' meeting.

**My experience is that unions are not fair at all to employers.**

_Posted using RoarFEED 4.2.0_[/quote

Unions alongside two major consumers are largely behind the ruin of my industry. They forced two major leading companies into the can from demanding overly generous working conditions.

And the employers in the latest grocery chain scam were on the other hand , only trying to help out their employees by paying them 50% or what they were promised, then blackmailing them to stop them from saying anything ??
There's good and bad in both unions and employers!!!
 
@krayola said:
The article is actually quite defamatory considering what is printed about Taylor AND the club, with none of it being backed up with evidence, concrete or otherwise. If it's so huge then why not wait until it's released? Blackmail for sure.

Likewise, why, if Robbie made this decision well before the Ballin signing, are we only hearing about his decision AFTER the signing?? (happy to be corrected on this if otherwise)

The sad part is that most of the Farah saga focuses on the statement that he'll be dropped to NSW Cup…surely he should focus on the fact that he took unders to stay with the club and now they're trying to dupe him out of it, not the reserve grade nonsense

It's only defamatory if somethings not true.
Do you know something that we don't ?

Up and down , like most reporters. No better, no worse. But you criticise them every time they write anything that they doesnt agree with you.

But that wasn't my question …......
 
Those two are not journalists at all in my opinion. I hsve higher respect for Tony Abbott and Bill shorten.
Masters, Mascord, Brad Walter are respectable journos.
 
The part that does not sit well with me is that the barrister has been commissioned to compile some report, and then gives inflammatory opinions regarding her own client and her legal opposition.

Apart from all the correct comments that you are going to expect this information from someone actively representing a player against the club, how can you take a professional report seriously when the writer paraphrases their findings as media snippets?

Stuff like "he's a trooper", "he has integrity plus", "who is Jason Taylor", "an abomination" - totally unprofessional.

Do you think Gonski made such comments when he reviewed education? "Seriously this funding is crap, no wonder our kids are turning into morons".

So you don't have a problem if they write a critical piece about Taylor then ?
 
So do you think that the stuff we have all read about Farah over the years in the press has contributed to opinions formed about him - assuming that none of us have ever actually witnessed the divisive things he has been accused of ? Lets face it we all choose to believe what we want by the press when it supports our own beliefs, and when it doesnt we denounce them of having any credibility.

I've no problem with anyone writing a critical piece on taylor. But Rothfield, weidler, hooper etc are all just tabloid rubbish bottom feeders.
Surely you can see that Farah's lawyer doing this independant repory is s farce.

Thats a fair point. But over years of following the game we work out who are reliable journos and who are just tabloid writers. Do you rate Rothfield and weidler as believable as any journo?
