Steve Blocker Roach attacks Robbie Farah.

[Jerry_Seinfeld]

Funny all this from a bloke who believes in loyalty, what his demonstrated here is money before loyalty, Blocker hang your head in shame maybe Farah can teach you a thing or 2 about loyalty, you will never see Farah selling out his own.

Unless of course you have the name Tallis, are an influential club sponsor, or others that are yet to be named, but are apparently widely spoken about in football circles.

So Robbies diva type interview to the world indicated he felt like he was thrown under the bus.So you didnt get rid of sheens or marshall hey robbie.Who was it jesse sue or david noffa or koroibete perhaps.Those in football circles know that the words Farah and Loyalty should never be used in the same sentence.Those in football circles know what Farah says and farah does are two completely diffent things.The way he threw wests tigers ceo Mayer under the bus in his tell all footy show interview(which he acknowledged he previously had thrown potter under the bus) to Panthers ceo Gould was a disgrace.He had a big cry about the tigers website editors yet he throws the media manager under the bus by tweeting his personal emails for the world to see.quite frankly if you see Robbie farah in person make sure there is no bus nearby as .You are all having a whinge about Blocker and rightly so but whats worse than someone who is a bus thrower in the media well yes its when your club captain is a bus thrower.

Moron, thick, dumb?

I wish I was as thick and dumb as this moron. A top profile on TV and radio. Probably on more coin than most people on here.

Not bad, you moron!

Have a good look at the Footy Show crew, cq - apart from Sterlo and Gould they'd barely have a brain between them, yet they are all on TV & radio and earning top coin as well - purely because they were good footballers, not because they are smart. Most of these guys have had everything handed to them on a platter just because they can play footy!

"Those in football circles…" So Robbie got rid of Benji? Correct me if Im wrong but wasn't Benji still contracted by the Tigers for this year, but when his manager wanted an upgrade with a lot more money - the club rejected the amount being requested and Benji decided to walk by his own choice. And was not Robbie in camp on SOO duty at the time and Benji contacted him personally to let him know. So it was Robbie behind all of that well there you go. How do you get in to these football circles?

Well! Well! Mr Roach - I think you should walk out - it has gone past you.

You obviously have an axe to grind with our captain - and so if he is staying, then you should go.

First it was "Robbie is not an Origin player" and now you are into him again over this episode.
With friends on our side like you, we certainly don't need enemies. Yes, you are entitled to your opinion - did you mention your opinion to Robbie on the side and that is the end of it.

No. You had to go shoot your big mouth off to the media.

We don't need it Mr Roach - there are enough people out there having a go without you as well. Do you know what loyalty to the club means. Oh!! right. It is called doing the right thing by the team and the club. You never did as a player why should we expect anything more as a "Hanger on".

Patting a referee on the head - may have been funny but it didn't do the team or club any good.

Whatever you do at the club besides getting paid is not working - the game has passed you by - it would be really good if the Wests Tigers passed you by as well.

Seinfeld, stick to coffee in cars with comedians.
I'll put my tin foil hat on here, because i could swear you were paid by the RTA for that post. The number of times you mentioned public transport was amazing!

Seems like city of Sydney is doing some of it's best PR on this very forum.

robbie has been the lightning rod for everything that's happened at our mangled club for ages, even at boardroom level which isn't fair. if speaking up (via twitter or on tv) is throwing people under the bus then so be it, but people did wrong by him and it was the only way mass audience were going to see and hear his side.
i'm a little confused, how has robbie been responsible for the ousting of benji, sheens and every other player under the sun thats left the tigers? i swear some people make out robbie is don corleone…please.

If Mayer or farah were the evil geniuses they were made out to be, we would be in a much better place.

Blocker just isn't that bright, listen to his comments on the continuos call, or the stuff me says during origin. Maybe its time for the "Steve Roach pearls of wisdom" thread?

Mate, we'd be here all day rattling off Blockers pearls of wisdom. One that comes to mind was earlier in the yr, he was criticizing Kearney for leaving SBW out of the kiwi ANZAC test team. Couldn't get his head around why he'd leave out one of the games best forwards till Hadley had to remind him that SBW had stood himself down.

 

[DonnyBrasco]

Everyone's good mate, Danny Weidler, wrote an interesting little tid bit in today's sun herald about Roach and Mayer …

"Tigers boss falls silent
This column is still waiting for a return call from Grant Mayer as the Wests Tigers lurch through one of their most embarrassing periods as a club. ‘‘There is a distinct lack of leadership at the club,’’ Tigers great Benny Elias said. ‘‘And that’s why we are in this embarrassing mess. I’ve been away overseas and you just can’t imagine a club in the EPL having these dramas because the boss would take hold of the matter and shut it down. I’m thoroughly ashamed for the club and for the club’s supporters, and steps must be taken. They deserve much better than this circus act which is going on.’’ Mayer has never been publicity shy – the players refer to him as ‘‘Google’’ because he is checking for his name or ‘‘Hollywood’’ because of his love of the limelight. He hasn’t been as keen to speak with this reporter because we exposed his thought-police tactics in editing Robbie Farah’s media conference. It was then leaked to a couple of his supporters in the media he’d had a ‘‘meeting’’ with Farah. The meeting went something like this. Mayer walked into the Tigers’ dressing room on Wednesday. The atmosphere turned icy. Mayer inquired about Robbie’s well-being. Farah fobbed him off and then when he tried to engage him in further conversation Farah said they both have a job to do and they should each get on with it. The meeting ended. Farah made several requests to be released from the club – all of which fell on deaf ears. When he calmed down, Farah realised an exit from the club caused by Gorden Tallis and Mayer is not the way he wants to go and it’s not how he wants to be remembered. Farah could sink Mayer for his behaviour last week if he chooses. Farah has another enemy in Mayer ally Steve Roach. Mayer and Roach go back to the Manly days – Roach spends plenty of time in Mayer’s office so he knows all the ins and outs at the club, including information such as when a coach is going to be sacked. Roach is a long-time Farah critic. You’ll remember he said Farah wasn’t an Origin player. Since that time Farah has been one of the Blues’ best. Roach also wrote in his Illawarra Mercury column a couple of weeks ago that Farah needed to pull his head in and lead the team. During Origin he was telling people Farah was out of line for comparing himself with Cameron Smith. But he was also far from supportive of Potter. If the Mayer-Farah relationship is unworkable, it’s hard to imagine Roach giving kind words of encouragement to Farah about his dummy-half play.

[supercoach]

Blocker has to be first to go, he offers our club nothing and than has the hide to bag our best player. We need positive people around the club not obese has beens

 

[jirskyr]

Weedler please.

 

[PYMBLEPETE]

You can turn your nose up at Weidler all you like, but most of what I have seen him print has proven to be pretty accurate. This column, as did his first on this subject makes sense.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

Steve Roach is a clown. End of story. Yet because he was a good player some people actually listen to what he has to say. Pathetic.

 

[innsaneink]

Lol

People would act the same If a player from the 70s said the same things about Roach 25 years ago

 

[Knuckles]

Didnt realise Roach and Mayer were mates from their time at Manly. In all the years I have followed Wests, I can't remember one decent signing from Manly …. whether it be players or officials.
