But the fact remains that the halves have stepped up since Farah has been demoted. It's obviously working. A creative 9 has never been farahs go. A hog, a reasonable kicker, a defender, a run into marker searching for a penalty that's never gonna eventuate type of player - that's Farah. JT doesn't want that & Farah won't change = stay in Reggie's.
Yeah but do you seriously think Farah was overplaying himself in games he's played this year. And do you think our young halves thought they'd better pull their fingers out?
I think he's picked the right time to as you say hog the ball this season. At the end of the day we're going to be very predictable on Friday night and will probably lead to our downfall sadly.
Farah's game hasn't changed at all really and his record of getting us into finals is poor. Whilst I understand his supporters desperately wanting him to play, I really don't see the benefit. After the way he spoke a few weeks ago, I personally hope he doesn't get another opportunity. His lack of professionalism was astounding to me. His willingness to basically bag the coach and hierarchy was appalling.
Yeah but it shouldn't come down to your dummy half as to whether we fight out for a finals berth. Right throughout his career he's hardly had a controlling 6 or 7 to help out. Apart from the 3 years of Prince and 3 of Loiu, makeshifts have been the go.
Its only been probably since rd 17 or 18 that our young halves have pulled their fingers out. But thru the games not only this season and also last Farah has been playing to the coaches plan.
Bottom line is He should still be in the team.
