Wests Tigers sign Robbie Farah for 2018 Official

[4jtigers]

When there is desperation it is amazing how low you will go !

x2 - good luck to the coach. I just hope RF has changed… oh well, that new culture will be shaken up now!!! lol

One things for certain is he is a lot better than a few players we have on our books for another three years. Although if we are going to beat enough teams to make the 8 this year we need a lot more than Farah

Agreed.

1\. Mbye
6.Reynolds
7\. Brooks
9\. Farah.

From an attacking point of view that looks way more dangerous then what we have been dishing up.

True enough but what about our shortage of centres and strike forwards?

 

[innsaneink]

Im sure his Norths team mates will be glad to be rid of him…couldve played on Sunday but chose not to (officially he was ''rested'')....they probably, more than likely win if he does play

 

[Balmainbred]

So if Farahs deal comes off that means we have 1 spot to fill is that correct.

Yeah i know. We still have issues. Honestly if we can get our ruck area right in attack and defence we work from there. Our ruck on the weekend was non-existent. Our forwards were lazy and tackled about as hard as a junior player. Get the forwards sorted with Robbie and we might start seeing some improvement.

Robbie had his detractors at Souths but many there are very upset with his departure - they wanted another Grand Final and he was their back up.

Not correct….Farah takes last spot

 

[Balmainbred]

Thanks.

 

[Demps]

The missing link. 😉

Hasn't Siebold and Farah talked about the plan with Farah all season to keep him fresh?

How do you know he choose not to play?

How do you know it wasn't the coaches decisions?

Interesting how you say like a matter of fact he choose not to play.

Yeah I'm with Eddie ..reckon Farah would have been itching to retain the JT Cup..coach said no..

Well why don’t they keep him. Honestly don’t know why Souths would let go of a quality back up when they are a big shot this year. Cook has to make it through Origin which isn’t going to be easy.

I don’t have strong feelings either way on this one let’s see what happens.

 

[bigsiro]

Strange by Souths to release Farah considering Cook is playing origin.
Their problem I guess.

 

[gallagher]

They go to all those lengths to get rid of him, pay him hundreds of thousands to play elsewhere and then when he's finally off the books they re-sign him.

And people think we've got good management..

I hope him and Mybe turn things around for us.

If we count Siro’s as apart of our top 30 then yes he is the last one, but if we don’t we might be able to get kelly here before June 30.

Someone on the Souths LU forum is suggesting Godinet is moving to Souths as Farah's replacement. SWould be great if true but hard to believe.

Read where Siebold has a system in place where he doesnt play Farah in ISP everyweek - based on his age and experience and that he viewed him as FG but believes in playing a DH for eigthy minutes - Cook.
Make of that what you will.

Sounds too good to be true.

Yes, his games are tailored to suit him…its what Ive been told but its hard to imagine Farah being dropped from reserve grade.....wouldnt wanna upset him

Interesting… It might have been why we also saw Matty m get a run in firsts. Maybe Ivan was trying to showcase his wares?
