Robbie Farah offered a contract ??

[stryker]

Not real impressed with Potsys first signing
Yeh Liam is an old favourite but I thought we were entering a new era, one that had size power speed and aggro in the forwards

Bit surprised by that post Ink. Fultons a footballer, not the biggest or fastest, but quality. A must re-signing in my opinion.

It just seems more of the same ol same ol to me.

We have plenty of play makers…..not a lot of strike.

I thought given Potters earlier comments on ''earning the right to attack'' we might have be heading differently, maybe I was wrong

We are in agreeance Ink. I love Fults but I also thought we were heading into a new era of an aggressive, powerful forward pack….This isnt a local club side, this is a professional sporting organisation and as such should always be looking to the future. Fults is great but there are plenty of better options in the comp and by the end of next season I would suggest plenty better within this club as well.

I found granting him a 3 year extension on top of the year we already have him contracted for to be a puzzling decision.

If Farah was to sign on until the end of 2016 or thereabouts he potentially could reach the 300 game mark.

Imagine how good that would be

I agree with this too… my question is, how much would Potter have had to do with Fulton's signing?

Do you think talks were already underway when Potter arrived, or did he say 'I want Fulton' after arriving and the negotiations went from there?

Had a massive rant on this but the app crashed. So now you get the abridged version.

Robbie had a tough year in '12 professionally and personally. Displayed huge character. Signings represent the character of your club. He represents all the traits I love about this club. His manager and our manager should just sort. it. out.

At least parra will do nothing for the next 3 years with sticky in charge…

Should have seen the rant it was epic

Futons signing was all about showing Robbie the club knows what the word loyalty means. Instead of opting a in with the new and out with the old policy as they have in the past to Robbies mates!!!

Isn't that a bit like the CEO telling us "That the coach has the full support of the board"

Sounds like some idiot on FB making up stories to create crap IMO. If it is true though, that is a disgraceful thing to do I reckon, especially after your own team has performed so pathetically just days before.
I honestly believe that Robbie will leave anyhow, we really do look like a club that is going nowhere on the field in the short-term unfortunately :frowning:

Farah close to signing a new deal with Tigers

Wests Tigers officials are close to re-signing their captain and hooker Robbie Farah, and may do so as early as next week.

In a boost for the Tigers as they look to turn around their first-up loss to Newcastle, Fairfax Media has been told officials hope they can announce a new deal next week, before their round-three clash with Parramatta at Leichhardt Oval.

The Eels were one club believed to be keen to sign the NSW hooker, who starred as a State of Origin player last year under the guidance of now Parramatta coach Ricky Stuart. However, Parramatta chief executive Ken Edwards made it clear on Thursday that the Eels were no longer in discussions with Farah.

The Tigers, meanwhile, have ramped up negotiations in recent days. The club's chief executive Stephen Humphreys met Farah's agent Sam Ayoub twice this week and was confident a deal was close.

Farah is a Leichhardt junior and has played his entire NRL career at the Tigers.

''The re-signing of Robbie continues to be our number one priority,'' Humphreys said. ''We've had a couple of meetings this week with his manager, and we feel we're very close to a satisfactory outcome for everyone.''

A confirmation next week would give the Tigers a lift ahead of their first match of the season at Leichhardt, not to mention giving them some certainty for the rest of the season. However, the Eels may be about to announce their own major re-signing.

There is some chance that the club will be in a position to announce the retention of fullback and co-captain Jarryd Hayne before the clash with the Tigers next Friday night.

Edwards described talks with Hayne's manager Wayne Beavis so far as ''constructive''.

The club is expected to sign Brisbane's Corey Norman, but the Broncos are still fighting to retain their player.

So highly do they rate Norman, the Broncos see the 21-year-old as a priority even with Canberra's sacked fullback Josh Dugan on the market.
