Robbie Farah on why he couldn’t let James Tedesco leave

[Geo]

Anybody else ever get worried that when Tedesco's contract runs out he will want to leave to go to a team that is more likely to win a Premiership. One where he doesn't get let down by teammates as much?

Not if you take him at face value…here...

Of the chance to have three young playmakers building their careers at the same time, Tedesco drew the comparison to the success the Storm have had with their trio of Maroons and Kangaroos stars Cameron Smith, Billy Slater and Cooper Cronk over the past decade.

"I think Melbourne are a prime example with how they've done that with Smith, Slater and Cronk and if we can continue to get some games under our belt and years under our belt together then we're only going to get better," he added.

Teddy strikes me as one of those guys where building something is important to him...Of course Money will be a factor as with most players these days ..Even our Management must realise the importance of retaining Tedesco...

His football will look after Rep honours...I also believe he is happy at the Wests Tigers...

Clubs can sign guys 12 months in advance last time i checked?

I would be looking to lock him down now if possible.

Actually that is a good point - clubs can now sign anyone as long as they are in the last year of their contract. So I guess that means from Jan 1 2017 Teddy is a free agent.

Why was this post resurrected -what relevance does it have to whats happening with the club at present. .

Resurrected by the usual suspects. An opportunity to bring Farah to the front and stab the coach.

Well, even if you hate Robbie,

He kept Teddy here!!!

Do we all think Teddy will be keen to re sign next time around?

Our poor performances might start to become a factor

We owe Robbie a contract extention til 2019 for 1.5m a season for helping us keep Tedesco. Dont ya think?

Haha…18 months time so better get discussing it now

We don't want to be late :smiley:

For all the haters of 'boys club's" it's probably one of the major factors that will keep Teddy at the Wests Tigers. Like it or not these boys are tight and to some people that is important.

Yep, I can't see him staying with us.

Seriously…a post count dig.
Is that your best?

Why worry about something thats 18 months away and may not even happen?
Your turning into Danny Weidler

Well some people have found it worth discussing?

If your not interested just leave it alone i guess.

I have no interest in the Religion thread going so I just leave it be.
