Robbie Farah

[Winnipeg]

Ouch

Doubt he will be there for 2-3 games at Best

Ouch

 

[supercoach]

He has been in career best form, we will struggle to win a game without him, but Potter will tap a kid on the shoulder and give him a challenge and thats all you can ask for

 

[guyofthetiger]

He's been back to his best. And he's talking more. Seems to be more vocal as captain. Maybe it's with Benji gone.

 

[Twodogs]

I had him as my supercoach captain!! Wooohooooo!!! racked up close to 300 points!

Ugh, I chose Smith instead purely for bye coverage now Farah's unaffordable. And to top it off I left Hunt on the bench! It's amazing to see what Robbie's capable of with reliable props and proper rotation. He'll be worth captaining pretty often, I reckon.

Looks like he has a dislocated elbow and will be out for some time.

Popped straight back in

That usually is a good sign

Fingers crossed the scans come back ok, if there's no damage internally he may be a chance for next Monday. If not, whilst I expect Luani to get a run, I'd almost be inclined to run Austin at 9 with Anasta due back. Blake was sharp tonight and defended well also.

Austin's defence was questionable mate , he had some clean one on one misses

The only clean misses I remember were on kick chases, and he was chasing his own kick. Sad indictment on the rest of the team if the kicker is getting there first.

Best I have seen Farah played so far, keep on at it and he may be on the same pedestal as Smith.

'About' 6 weeks from Wests Tigers, hopefully the tough buggar comes back earlier

We are cursed with injury.

 

[BlackandGoldForever]

where screwed without him, there goes our great start to the year ruined by injuries and the eels was a winnable game too

 

[Newtown]

The mark of a good team (and its fan base) is to fight adversity. Have faith in our good young players.

 

[Eddie]

NRL is more to do with luck then any other sport. We always have the worst injury toll. We would have made the Top 4 this year if we could keep guys like Robbie on the field. Now we be lucky to make the 8\. Feel sorry for Potter.

 

[bonstonker]

i loved his answer to the reporter at the half.i was saying it at the 20min mark.
the new nrl style has him licking his chops
he knows exactly what he needs from his team each week for him to dominate .

Tallis on Triple M seems to think he would be very surprised if Farah wasn't back in 2 weeks

He's a tough determined bastard Robbie and he will be doing everything humanly possible to get back on the field - not only for the WT but he is obsessed with the Blues No9 and won't give it up without a huge fight -every case is different but there have been others recently with very similar injuries who have been back playing within a few weeks.

You do have to remember though that Gordie is one of the code's true dunderheads….It did look bad, it was a dislocated elbow....it will take time to heal. Such a shame as Rob is at the pointy end of the game's elite ATM

 

[tig_prmz]

if it popped straight back in.. i can see some inflamation being the issue which sets down in a week tops.

knowing how hard the physio and the players work these days.. i really think he'll be back in 2-3 weeks.
