Was just looking at the draw and I noticed our last game of the year is against the Raiders at Leichhardt.

If Farah came out a couple of weeks before that game and announced he was going to England next year? He would have Leichardt Oval packed for his and Halatau's farewell game…..regardless how we'd be playing, i know I will be down there if it was to happen.

But just that act of kindness would be something never seen before and in return would guarantee himself a job in Some Capacity at our Club when his playing Days are over.
The difference could be a $400,000 sacrifice for next year if he went to England but he would make up for it down the track.

Farah make Leichhardt Round 26 your last and the place will be packed.

Why would you want him at the club once his playing days are over ?
I wouldn't !

I agree. We don't need another version of Benny Elias after he retires.

I wouldn't !

So you don't reckon giving up what is reported a $900,000 salary for the good of the Club isn't a good gesture and isn't worth a job in Some Capacity down the track?
Your hate for him is to great to recognise that he has been one of our greats over the 13 years his been here.

His form is obviously not worth his price tag but the gesture would be a good one and it would give us $900,000 to get some quality talent or secure Tedesco on a long term deal.
 
Robbie is still an instinctive dummy half, but has not been an 80min player for the past couple of years.

He will get us through a game as the only option, but is no where near effective for the full 80min.

This is one area that immediate change is required. We must have another specialist DH on the bench every game. Whether thats Maniai or Ballin, thats up to the coach.

He will not give it up, will take what he can get in the ESL and then make the Tigers pay the difference. You forget he was happy to take 100k from the roosters and leave as long as the Tigers paid the rest. However he would not take the 300k from the dragons. If the Tigers force him out, he will make sure he does some damage on the way out

Farah won't go anywhere .
He'll take every cent he's owed ( rightfully so ) even if it means playing through until the end of 2017.
As others have mentioned the ' jobs for the boys club ' needs to evaporate big time !
3-5 years IMO of good service from 13 odd years is not that great .
The time is 'NOW' we need to stop living the past accolades …
As for HATE , I don't hate anyone !
I dislike Farah (yes) ... He lost me during the Potter can't coach Woman's day scandal !

He's Toxic !
As I've already posted today it's a shame Farah didn't move on when Taylor tried to oust him .
If Ballin was fit at the start of the year , I doubt the club would up to its neck in effluent .

You have missed the point.

I'm obviously aware that he won't be going anywhere but all I was saying it would be a great gesture if it was to happen, the last game at Leichhardt with his farewell.

3-5 years :laughing:, try 2004-2011 was brilliant.

He has a University degree in Economics so he could be more than Capable for a CEO role in 5-10 years.

What use is an economics degree at Wests Tigers ?
I couldn't care if he was Stephen Hawking !

As for 2010 and 2011 , Farah failed !

He's Toxic … Enough said !
 
Farah has been a great player for a long time until the last few years. Not a single supporter at WT denys that.

But all the associated stuff that comes with it, the ego, the destabilising, the leaks, the self first, the coach undermining, etc.

Was it worth it?

Yeah i agree with what you have said, my ever problem was how it was handled by the Club last year that got me pissed .

There is no doubt that Farah has played his part in the destabilizing of our Club and his form doesn't match the money his getting no arguments from me .

That is why it came to my mind when i saw the last game at Leichardt and thought it would be a massive thing for him to do and head overseas and in turn save us massive dollars.

I know i'm dreaming :laughing: as it won't happen.

a lot of that stuff is wild speculation with no solid fact to support it.

But the simpletons will latch onto it to justify some hatred for Farah.

I'm no Farah lover or hater. But I hate it when people have their good reputations destroyed by pathetic rumours.

And I can't stand people who act like they have done nothing wrong MU , when they have knowingly in the past done the exact same thing

Where there is smoke there is fire as I have stated many times Farah should of been punted in 2015 the club had the perfect senecio to relieve us all off this guy but did not have the required intestinal fortitude.
 
JT knew what had to be done and it wasn't because Farah couldn't play . The board stuffed the roster ,JT tried to rectify it ,but because he didn't he will be sacked … Nothing changes until we free up our salary cap .

I feel he deserves to cop some criticism but the problem is what he is coping is completely out of line compared to what he has done. He has been our best playmaker this season.
 
Where is the form Robbie showed against the Warriors in the game last year when there was the big media buzz about his future?
He didnt struggle for attacking ability that day.
