The only way forward

In my eyes of course.

Sack sheens asap.

Sack Robbie Farah.

Install Heghington as club captain

Use Robbies money to buy a fullback.

There i said it.

Sheens is losing the plot at training and losing respect. We are in dissaray because of one man.

We will be a better team with a less dominant hooker who doesnt make so many silly plays, and a gun fullback to compliment Benji and Lui.

Now hopefully this thread will come back to bite me on the bum and make me look like a fool (again), i really hope it does.

So come on then, let me have it. Id be interested to hear your veiws as to why im so wrong.
 
Robbie hasnt been as good since he played origin. I keep waiting for him to hit his best form and I am starting to doubt we will see it again. But I wouldnt sack him and his still a very valuable player in our team and his still a match winner.
 
Yeh fair call. Sacking Robbie is an outragous call, but i base it on a few things. I believe what we will lose in his genius play we will gain in club harmony, money for a fullback and a hooker who makes less dumb plays. Just my opinion.
 
I think Robbie has been playing injured all year. If he has been there has been excuses for his poor form. He should have had the operation required straight away now his poor form may cost us a semis birth not him being unavailable for a recovery period. We need a class fullback but we can develop one of those. IMO a fully fit Robbie farah is our way to a premiership. Unfortunately I don't see it this year. Prove me wrong Robbie. Please!

Never been a fan of blaming Coaches for poor on-field performances, but with everything which is going on at the Club, the Board needs to step in, and step in quickly…

Sirro...Sack Farah??? Maybe strip him of the Captaincy first and then review where he is at... I feel the (c) is very much apart of the problem!

Ellis would be my choice for Captain... It might keep him here longer??!!!
 
The injured call has been going on for a couple of years. I'll tell you what I think - he is no more injured than any player running around in the NRL. There was his back and then his groin but throughout it all the one constant has been his extremely poor form. Yes he can kill it every so often but the play that sums it up for me was butchering the 10 on 1 overlap on the weekend and putting his one good kick in. We got a thumbs up for that. Bravo Robbie Bravo.

His killing us and we'd be better off with an average NRL hooker. There would be plenty who would be better players than Robbie. I watched some of the Parra/Manly game on Monday night. There was no dumb plays from the Parra hooker during that time. They were attacking on Manly's goal line and he simply passed the ball to his outside players.

As Sirro says buy a fullback and a decent hooker and let him go.

Alternatively Sheens needs to man up and deal with the problem. Robbie needs a strict game plan until he gets his game together.

I really like Sheens and I don't blame him for poor player performances but Robbie needs to be given a major kick up the back side. If Sheens can't do it he needs to be moved on.

Our no 1 problem is Robbie Farah. I'd love to see him turn it around but I'm starting to think it won't happen.
 
Unfortunately Robbie is getting a name as a whinger ….now most will say they dont care what other clubs and fans think, but hes our (C) and his views reflect those of the club.
If he came out with outlandish comments Im sure everyone would be concerned....I really dont care but in a way I do....I doubt we'd hear Lockyer or Hornby complaining of the storms tactics, among other things.

OT...only way forward is an entire new coaching staff, no Sheens apprentices, no nothing. Clean slate

Robbies down on form, but theres only a couple of other hookers Id have instead of him.
 
Robbie and half the side are not at their best…. Now quick everyone get the knives out and bag him sack him... :wtf

Next week it will be Marshall too flashy let's sack him...
:dead
 
Robbie's main problem is the refs have stopped pinging people for not marking square. Takes away his running game. I know its an opinion but I don't support it at all. Farah is a game winner.

Yeah lets sack Farah and Sheens. Lets also sack Benji, Lawrence, Tuqiri, and Ellis.

C'mon it's the only way forward!

I don't think anyone is stating to go that far.

The problem is that Robbie simply isn't performing and hasn't progressed like Marshall or Lawrence has. Robbie has gone the other way and he is chewing up a fair chunk of our salary cap. This in my opinion is pretty obvious and it is the number 1 problem facing the club at the moment.

If Robbie starts to perform I think we are a different looking team and everything will fall into place. The truth is that I'm really doubting that it will happen.

I hope I'm wrong and I hope it starts this weekend.

You think sacking him is going to make the team play better? Do you think Ndaira/Politini are better options?

He may be out of form at the moment, but getting rid of one of your top players is beyond stupid IMO. I'm glad Humphreys is in charge, and not anyone on this forum, we'd be down with the sharks in no time.
 
Robbie hasn't been the same since he was dropped from Origin 2 years ago. His constant non-selection has got into his head. He needs to get over it, somehow, or someone needs to help him deal with it - we won't see the form he showed in previous years until he does. That said, he is still a good hooker, just not the great one he once was.
 
LOL…Just having a laugh.....

King Sirro you are a legend, nice play. Like it when people call a spade a spade. In what has been discussed there is some truth...

The team is not playing as a Champion Team. Unless there are some changes are made you will not see much improvement. A Couple of key players no longer see eye to eye. In fact there is one player that does not see eye to eye with just about the rest of the team. He needs to get his act together in this department or go. Until he does so you will not see much improvement in him on the park. And the team will suffer, there form as it has been till now will be inconsistent, and without the magic and luck experienced this far this year we will see the year end with more losses than wins....

Hard to say or believe...but it is the truth. Robbie pull your head in or go. I for one have had a enough. Sorry to say, but I have the best interest for Wests Tigers at heart and not individuals. In '05 we did iy because we were a team and played like one. Today we have better players but are far from playing like a team. Why is Gibbs & Fifita leaving? Yes it was for better money....but also to go to a place where it is also more enjoyable to play.

Bloody hell I have so much more to say but will keep my mouth shut. If No.9 who is captain (I think) doe snot start acting as one...I will speak my mind. You may not like what I have to say. But it is the truth!
 
I personally would prefer the Blair money to buy a fullback or even better still off load the guy supposedly being paid 300 k a season to play fullback next season and buy Naiqama and use the rest to sure up Sironen and Miller futures . Far wiser in my opinion
 
There is little value in Naiqama. If there was, Bennett would not be letting him go. Anyway you don't just get Wes, you have to buy his brother too! He has done little to speak of at the Knights, he is not the solution to our problems just because he has strung 6 reasonable games together.

PS His goal kicking is not that great either
