Has there been a pop up rally calling for his signing. The selfish bugger just wants his 250 games. Can we bring back Heighnington while we are at it?

Just when you thought the club may have turned the corner

Tell me Ivan it ain't real

Lol save the melodrama.

Robbie Farah for half a season under Ivan Cleary is not going to ruin anything that Ivan is building.

So many Chicken Littles

Exactly, and it would really strengthen an area of our game where we’re struggling. I hope this happens. Our spine’s looking a hell of a lot better with Mbye/Farah there.

And tell me what is this teaching the rest of the juniors about our culture , honestly

Act like terds and then ask for forgiveness so you can come back when you having absolutely nothing left to fall back on

If Axl and Slash can work together again then I guess anything is possible.

Haha very true, no one thought that was ever a possibility.

If it were to happen thpugh i cant see any reason why the Ivan Cleary and Brett Hodgson team wouldnt work well with a more humble Robbie Farah. I see no disruption or issues here whatsoever.
 
A bit of advice Robbie, “Be careful that the toes that you tread on today are not connected to the arse you need to lick tomorrow”
 
I’d prefer e went in a different direction but there are positives.

1)Farah has been an excellent mentor for Cook and he is loved by the coaching staff and management at Souths. I know some personally.

2)He is currently better than our current batch of hookers. Most important point.

3) It rights a wrong done by JT to one of our club legends and heals some wounds for some supporters.

4) Provides a storyline should we lose our next two games effectively ending our season.

Cleary is no mug the positives far outweigh the nagatives. As long as it’s short term I’m fine with it.

He was treated like dirt by a grub and reacted poorly I admit but he’s an emotional little guy and his loyalty and love of the Tigers can’t be questioned. His actions were poor but sometimes that happens when people are out to get you.

It’s reaching them that we are a club that now wants the best players that are available,
Seems again, as is frequent here, that there’s one rule for people who break Serious laws, and one for people who have a dispute with the club, (which , strangely enough , doesn’t injure people , or , put people into hospital. Or bash wives)

With out the Scarecrow and his personal favourites still stinking up the club, and a coach who has an idea about running a team properly
Farah would be Just what we now need.
 
We need robbie now for the rest of the year. I would imagine we all needed him whilst he was SOO hooker and the best hooker In NSW and playing for us. Lets face it, he did cause rumbles and can be, on the surface an arrogant dill, but it's his football skills we need and i think he is better and far more experienced than what we have for the remainder of the season. Bring him back, let him help us make the semi's, because he will and let him get his 250 for the Tigers and then say thankyou and goodbye.

Explain all that to Mick Potter or Tim Sheens maybe even Jacob Miller

Tim Sheens spend a decade at the joint.

We made the finals in 3 of 10 seasons.

His last season missing the finals ad Premiership favs.

But yeah Robbie forced him out…
 
Hopefully it happens, it would mean Liddles path isn't blocked as Robbie is at the end of his career.

A proper fullback and hooker might be enough to get us into the 8 at the end of the year.

And how many finals appearances before or since Eddie ??

Had no problems with Sheens going , it's the repeat offender who was a great footballer who kept sticking his nose where it shouldn't have been

Robbie would be a God here if he had of kept his nose out of stuff that didn't involve him
 
Robbie Farah could make a shock return to Wests Tigers, giving the veteran hooker a chance for a more fitting farewell at the club where his career began.

Fairfax Media can reveal Farah has reached out to Tigers coach Ivan Cleary about the prospect of coming back to the joint-venture outfit before the June 30 transfer deadline. The deal would only be until the end of the season and it's likely his current side, South Sydney, won’t stand in the way. A comeback could provide Farah and another prodigal son, Benji Marshall, a perfect note to retire on together if they can steer the Tigers to a drought-breaking finals appearance.

The Tigers have been unable to settle on a replacement hooker since Farah’s departure. They have used with varying success, Pita Godinet, Jacob Liddle, Elijah Taylor, Matt McIlwrick and Josh Reynolds during their 2018 campaign. While McIlwrick has been given the nod for Sunday’s clash with Canberra, insiders believe the chances of making the semis will increase if a player of Farah’s experience is in the spine. Farah is one of the most polarising figures in Wests Tigers history. He has made 247 appearances for the club, including the 2005 grand final victory against the Cowboys. The former skipper never wanted to leave, but there was pressure to move him on be

Wonder if it originated from this forum.

Wouldn't be upset if it happens.
