Robbie - Gone as an attacking threat?

He has become slower like the rest of us as we age with grace but also he looks to be playing a game influenced by Daley and Taylor.

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?

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.

No solid fact?

Now as you say, im just a 'simpleton', but I think telling Gorden Tallis that Mick Potter 'cant coach' covers destabilising, a leak, coach undermining and then denying it all covers ego.

Or are you going to deny that happened? Because Farah didnt!
 
One comment, that was 18 months old when it was revealed does not equate to Farah being a cancer.

Farah had patched things up with Potter by the time this story broke.

He has admitted he was involved in the Sheens situation as well

I can only say this so many times , he is a player , he plays football End of story

If he doesn't like who he is playing under he leaves

That's what most other rugby league players do

True ??

But seriously, no NRL club wants Farah.

That's correct, that's why he's still here :bash
 
Yes Farah was involved a bit with Sheens departure. Lets not forget that Sheens said he would step down if the Tigers didn't make the finals in 2012\. When he was held yo his word, he dug his heels in.

Furthermore, everyone wanted Sheens gone.

Farah it seems can do no right by anyone, no matter what he does.

He's doing as Taylor demands and you all chastise Farah for not being good enough anymore. But if he plays his natural game you'll all shit on him for ignoring the coach.

He was also involved in Potter's departure and who knows about Taylor's imminent departure.
 
Farah's heart is still with the club. He still tackles himself silly, he still puts in best he can. But he is in his 30's now and he is not the player he was in 2010 and 2011\. We all get older and slower and he is definately in his twilight footballing career.

Personally I don't think he is SOO material any longer. If picked on form then Enis is definately ahead of him. Personally if Robbie is smart he will leave at the end of the year, take a 2-3 contract in the ESL on decent money and retire.

I wish him no ill will…..he was part of our only Premiership win and even though he has made mistakes off the field.....he is still a Tigers Legend.

If I hear Robbie has gotten rid of Taylor I'll accept his passes to the ground on the 5th tackle for another year. It would be a winning trade.

Why would he care what we think ??

Maybe I'm losing the plot again , but I'm starting to think about that phrase "careful what you wish for "

Sheens almost seems like a good option again :crazy
 
Shout out to Robbie who had a major part in the Kevin and Nofo tries.

Welcome back Captain RF

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.

Hope he did enough for you last night

It the consistency that is the problem.

Robbie was great last night.

and he was last great in rd 25 vs the Warriors.

He was ordinary in the other games since his return.

Having said that, for 900k per year, I'd like "Cameron Smith-esque" Consistently great.

I think he has been one of our best players and our best playmaker this season. I want more out of him and I want those poor plays of his to stop ala the loss ball when trying to barge over from dummy half but he is far from the main issue with this club.

Unfortunately, being the best so far this year isn't a massive achievement. He should be given his vast experience. Hopefully he'll keep it up.
 
Couple of iffy moments last night, but overall very good. The kick with the outside of the foot for Naiqama's try was a pearler.
 
Could feel the knives in the back when he went himself and stuffed it up.

However overall he was a big threat last night.

Set up 2 tries and got a repeat set.

Turned the clock back a bit I enjoyed it.
 
He was great last night…was a bit of the old Robbie stuff ups and all...

Was a big part of the reason we won..
