Pascoe to review Farah comments...

Yeah I think now we should go back to players running the Club…because that has worked out for us so well in the past..

They should select the team too...

Give them the keys Pascoe

Id probably be getting a warning letter if i talked publicly about my boss/company like that…wether its the truth or not.

There are things such as diplomacy, tact and professionalism....Robbies big mouth will be his undoing...and he reckons he's smart. LOL

If your boss demoted you when you were performing well I'd call HR.
If your KRAs are good then its discrimination and the boss goes in any major company.
Nothing in Farahs performance against Penrith or for NSW that deserves a demotion while we watch Rankin at dummy half.

Righto.
That's why we see dropped players at the anti discrimination board all the time

100% correct. You can't state what Taylor said and then come out and play Halatau and Rankin at dummy half. It's just dumb.

Obviously you can. And come away smiling aswell.

Fair point. You can do it but you can't do it and not look like a fool.

Top story bro. Can you tell me the player or players that were coaching the team or managing the club whilst they were playing. I know we have Mark O'Neill there now but I thought he had been retired for a while.

Correct me if I have this wrong.

I suggest pascoe does a review on jt while he's at it and not on holidays. Maybe he can pick up the phone and give a few ex team mates of taylor a call and ask them what their opinion of taylor is. I can suggest a few, billy moore, gary larson, Greg florimo, david fairliegh just to name a few. I'm sure they would be more than obliging to clear up any confusion about what kind of a person jt is. Robbies ex teammates, current teammates and club captain along with Thousands of fans showed the nrl in what regard he is held. Let that be part of the review pascoe. I for one want a statue of robbie stomping on jt standing outside L O.

Professional sport is a popularity contest now is it? I don't think Pasoce will be taking up your suggestion because last I checked he wasn't a complete muppet.

You might need to check again.

If he does review his comments he'll find he told the truth as he sees it.
Farah hasn't breached any code of conduct - he was asked a question and answered it.
Maybe he should have just said 'We're taking it one game at a time, the boys really stood up out there today etc etc "
The more interesting review is the one they do on Taylor's coaching.

There is a specific clause in the standard playing contract that prohibits comments to the media that are not in the best interests of the club. It's a clear breach of contract.

Clear as mud, Nelson do you make these things up?

:laughing: Nelson! I can't stop laughing.

Yep he is treated differently than any other player. If any other player came out directly criticising the coach I would expect their contract to be torn up.

Any other player wouldn't have been relegated to reserves on a BS best 17 agenda, we had a winger who is a half move into dummy half then a secondrower move to centre and a centre to wing to accommodate this stupid move.
That is not giving our team the best chance at winning, if JT is going to keep up this stupid campaign then he at least needs to pick a hooker.

So how come you never criticise Farah? It's as if you just say he should go to to sound diplomatic. You don't show any significant signs that make you feel he should go. Yet you will constantly rage over JT.

What Farah said was factual.

Taylor's reasons were pretty flimsy and he picked that apart.

Whether it was needed is another story.

However Farah obviously feels it is personal now and there is no way back so he made those comments.

if he thought he was a chance of playing first grade again then i doubt he would have said it.

So what if it was factual? No organisation will let you get away with openly criticising the boss to the world in such a way. The club has let Farah get away too much with these comments. His contract should have been torn up 6 weeks ago without paying him a cent.

It wasn't factual anyway, it was an opinion. Was it correct? Thats a matter for debate.

Thats the best one I have heard. Farah getting pushed out is evidence the players run the club. I think this beats some of stevetiger's posts for pearler of the year.

Thanks for clearing that up. So we've actually never had a player/coach situation or player/ceo thing happening.

You know what would be great. Let's make Robbie captain/coach. Can you imagine the meltdown on here.

I thought Farah's comments were infantile, but seriously what are the club going to legitimately do about it? They can't sack him over that…

Man, what a load of crap!!
It's ok for the scarecrow to attack farah saying he is the reason our whole attack is not cohesive. Rite, dirty farah is the reason we play so poorly in attack???
But when he defended himself with truthful facts, he should be sacked, rite?????
U guys are complete tossers.
If Taylor can list reasons why farah is holding the ream back, why can't he reply if the scarecrow is wrong??
As farah has stated look at the last 3 weeks he has played in to gauge his form not 15 rounds ago!!
Pathetic, the smile on that head of the scarecrow at the press conference. Seriously how u could be happy with that second half, I don't know. The dragons were crap, and the scarecrow stating we lacked execution.
Funny stuff scarecrow, execution or cohesion???????????????????? Joke!

Bye bye lathami. I'd suggest attending some anger management classes before trying to pop up in this community again.

Talk about a load of rubbish..now like most people I think Farah should be in the 17, but Taylor has never questioned Farahs work ethic or his ability. Right from the outset he has hammered the point its all about cohesion and changing the way the team plays. Now there might be all sorts of things going on behind the scenes and there might be dramas going on, but as far as what Taylor and the club has said to the media, he has never questioned Farahs work ethics.

Mate as the old saying goes…never let the truth get in the way of a good story

I think the problem with JT's comments are that they aren't factual. If he came out and said well Robbie makes too many mistakes at critical times and here are some examples or he misses tackles or whatever as long as it was factual we could see what he was talking about.

JT has simply made up an excuse to justify what appears to be a personal decision or a decision related to money.

Still Robbie should just shut his mouth. I think he is right in his comments but he shouldn't be stating it openly.

I really think though that this club needs to have a good look at themselves for allowing this situation to develop. I think we've give too much power to JT and probably gave too much power to Robbie a while ago. It's now a mess.

I've read some "out there" posts of yours, but this one takes the cake. What sort of crap would any coach cop for telling the world a player was dropped due to specific mistakes? You live in some bizarro world and are trying desperately to denigrate JT at every opportunity. Furthermore,you say he should air his grievances publicly, but Farah shouldn't have. The reason we're at this point, is because JT wasn't afforded his wishes some months back and right up until now Farah hasn't been willing to do as requested by the coach. I'm amazed JT has held himself together for this long and believe me, I wasn't a fan of his for some time. This whole episode has given me a significant amount of respect for him with the way he's conducted himself throughout .

keyword is I, its your opinion so of coarse you think its spot on.
A bit like how farah said he was the least of the tigers problems in attack

Oh really? Please enlighten me Steve. Please tell me what I said that is so looney. Tell me why JT should talk crap about Farah and Farah should stay silent. Is that so that way Farah looks like the decent bloke and JT doesn't instead of white the opposite which we have now? As it is, and you know it, Farah has completely lost all credibility whereas JT looks like a professional. Whether he's a good coach or not is irrelevant. Here we have a spoilt brat spitting chips at his coach and club. What a legend.
 
First player I've ever seen sobbing on TV and bagging his coach and club about being dropped.

Highly unprofessional

The media forced JT into a corner questioning him about the situation… He either tries to explain as he did, or says nothing and he will still be hammered as he is now.
Can't win

I think you should re-read what I posted. Your response makes no sense if you read what I posted. Even this post here makes no sense.

I said Farah should shut his mouth. That is how a professional should act. JT should also be professional and pick the best available team.

The biggest concern for me here is Pascoe organised an overseas holiday for himself in middle of a season. September to February isn't really league season for Tigers but our club signs off on the ceos holiday in July. Seriously!

First thing came to my mind was:

Why is Justin Pascoe on holiday at this time of the year? (Before anyone says he has a right - his holiday period should be in any time after this season ends and before next season starts as he took the job); secondly

Why did Jason Taylor make this power move to put Robbie Farah in reserve grade when Justin Pascoe went on holiday?

To me it looks like JT is being more divisive at the club this time around

Ps I think both should go at seasons end if I was able to enforce the decision.
