Robbie Farah..Discussion Thread.....

[MacDougall]

Haha yeah, he didn't leak it. He just said it. I don't think it even occurred to him at the time that that would be the sticking point everyone would run with. I don't even feel like that's the part of it that has offended him at all.

Basically I think Robbie would be happy to go if their are offers. I think it would be good for his football if he moved on.

The embarrassing thing for him is there does not appear to be any offers at the minute and thats why he is digging his heals in.

I love how they go it was bad that it was leaked the club said farah would be dropped to reserve grade. It was farah that leaked it.

How do you know this?

Because I heard it with my own two ears when it first come out in an interview with farah which was on wt website.

Sorry mate misread Your post

 

[gallagher]

I think he might be getting a cheque Monday morning.

 

[littletiger]

Yep he wanted nothing more but to cut Vautin off and tell him to mind his own business because his situation is different.

Vautin to Manly is not Farah to the Tigers. Farah is the longest standing employee at the entire club is he not?

Yes we all know how special Robbie farah is. I wonder if he served wt as long as giddley has served knights. But not a word on giddly.

Happens all the time

Now I really think he should go.

Robbie and his manager have dragged this out in the media

Sam Ayoub leaked it in the first place to Dean Ritchie
They put the reserve grade piece out thier
Robbie & Sam talked about it every chance they have had
Robbie has had his mates tweeting and talking about it in the media

Look at other cases where a player leaves contracts early - Look at even our own club this year Keith Galloway who has been with the club for years and 170 games was given the same permission to negotiate and he did and did in quietly like a professional, like an adult and like every other player does except Robbie Farah and DCE and both are clearly dickheads

Robbie is managed by Slimy Sam Ayoub - You know the bloke who was Ryan Tandy's manager and whose own son was involved in the betting controversy and where Sam was arrested, same Sam Ayoub who is good mates with John Ellias perhaos the dodgiest bloke in the history of Rugby League

Robbie has had the advantage of being able to talk publicaly about this when the club couldn't really say much because firstly they are trying to be professional and not be dickheads like Robbie and Sam

I respect what Farah did for the club on the field but lets be honest he has now had 2 coaches sacked and is trying for a 3rd. He needs to go from this club and if we have to pay him to play reserve grade or even pay him to not turn up at our club at all then so be it

Perception is often far different from reality

I bet Taylor's woken up on a few mornings this week and wanted to rewind all this back a week or so. Farahs not the pushover that JT thought.

Because the Knights handled the situation correctly and professionally.

And were dealing with an adult

Typical Aussie Tall Poppy Syndrome, from alot of you ungrateful dopes who wouldnt know what hard work, loyalty and commitment is worth..
You would rather praise and lick Sony Bill Williams backside swapping codes whenever he pleases and show more respect. when he praises the heavens with his arms….. Then Farah a one man club player
Cowards....

Why do you despise him so much Gallagher? Just interested,

 

[Granto87]

I think he is going to leave, what pull does Harry T have in all this? Can someone expain to me what he thinks he Can do to change things? He isnt sponser again next yr so i can't see what he can do to sway the club.

I love how they go it was bad that it was leaked the club said farah would be dropped to reserve grade. It was farah that leaked it.

Thank You….and Precisely...How come no one in the media has picked up on that!....

Speculation mate, it was on the souths forum morning before it broke.

The point is the large majority of the **sympathy** toward Farah and **anger** to the club stems from the fact Farah was told if he stays he is going to play reserve grade and not train with the full time squad…It's a fact that Reddy told him this at their meeting last Tuesday evening ..and I know it was not stated as a threat to Robbie, _**more like a matter of fact if he chooses to stay**_._**The club made it clear to him that Cherrington is the preferred FG hooker for the next 2 years.**_..Now, **NO ONE** from the club told the media that conversation took place….**It was Farah who told the world what was said**....he made these points to the media in his interview the following morning after the announcement....Why didn't he keep the details of the conversation inhouse?..simple....because he can't keep his mouth shut and achieved what he set out...to get all the sympathy he can get....and its worked a treat for him!..If anyone saw the Footy show interview tonight....2 things stood out for me; 1) Farah is a stubborn mule 2) The first time in over 20 years Fatty said something that made logical sense.... Fatty almost pleaded to Farah to leave the club, his advice was the club has made its decision and it would be best for him to move on...Wow...Fatty must've taken his Fish Oil capsules today.

Firstly it wasn't Farah it was his manager that leaked it
Secondly, he leaked it because after all parties agreeing that Farah play out 2016 And handing over captaincy and then leaving to ESL, JT rang Rabbitohs to do a swap deal with Mcqeen .
Obviously, They didn't trust JT or the board by that stage

In fairness gallagher, I am in support of Farah moving on. I think it's fair to say Farah means more to the Tigers than Vautin ever did for Manly.

Despise is your word.

They were talking specifically about the playing in reserve grade stuff.
