Can't understand the animosity towards Farah….most of which is based on hearsay.
Here are some facts
1\. He is the most passionate player we have ever had.
2\. He is one of the best to ever play for us (only behind Benji).
3\. Even now he is better than anyone we've got in his position.
4\. We have a better chance of winning games with him in the team.

It's a yes from me.

Not really hearsay… Just need to see the content of the articles as the drama went on and make a few logical connections.

Even that recent article is concerning. Not wanting to play for the Jason Taylor cup? Seriously. That says volumes to me.

Didn't want to play at Cambo today either… He's not injured.
His team probably wins if he does
 
How can you sit back and say NO to Farah joining this team after todays display.. You are kidding yourself.. They need to call a board meeting tonight and approve this so he is there tomorrow..

Not really worth it now. The season is gone. May as well just use the money for something else.

what about putting on a decent spectacle for paying customers who may have happened to travelled long distances - it is not just about money, and for TV audiences as well. We don't want total disgrace.

Your sarcasm detector isn't malfunctioning but your sense of reason is.
You don't think he is the most passionate player we've fielded, is one our best ever players and is a better hooker than anyone we've currently got?
Pretty sure the 'prediction' of having a better chance of winning will prove true also …if he signs.

I didn't say I disagreed with you, I just found it funny that you criticised people for repeating things they've heard, then proposed to talk facts, before running out a list of opinions.

It's all the same - opinions, hearsay, guesses, assumptions, ideas, feelings.

They seem like facts to me and im sure could be backed with statistics.

And im pretty sure ironic not the correct word sounds like your trying to sound smart.

No, they were not facts and consequently no, he was not incorrect to refer to the situation as ironic.
 
If he's willing to fit into Cleary's culture and game-plan then yeah. And to all those people that say it isn't fair for the players to work their arses off earning their spot just to have someone else come in and take it mid-season. Did you actually see the game today? No one except Rowdy and Brooksy deserve their spots in this team.
 
Were no hope of making the finals with or without Farah imo.

However were a train wreak at 9 and have been every game when Liddle has not played.

SO along with Mbye i say do it.

Fans are quickly losing interest in this season as performances drop away.
 
Now that theres no chance of making the 8 I cant see any reason to sign him. No logical reason anyway.
You just don't hand out contracts for the feel good factor.
 
We have 9 games to play and need to win 6 of them. Slim chance it could happen but we need a hooker if we are any chance and Robbie is the only one available. Can’t say I’m a big fan of it happening but will get behind anyone in our jersey.

I was keen however before this weekend I believed we were still a chance of sneaking 8th.

Now the Broncos have won and we were horrible today. 4 Point gap likely to get bigger. We play Souths and Dragons twice.

Im starting to wonder if its really worth it.

Personally l I would just like to see him play for the Tigers again from a biased perspective. As I thought he was unfairly scapegoated (however se things differently and i respect that)

However from a clubs perspective I think its almost hardly worth it given were so far off the pace.

A 9 week contract for any player would be waste now. Unless they are looking at him for next year aswell.

There's no logic in your contention

Farah is a first rate 9 with great game management skills and outstanding defence around the ruck. He has brilliant awareness, maturity and can work under pressure

Apart from the obvious need for a 9 of his calibre, he deserves to go out in a style befitting a Club legend, the departure that the paranoid and immature Taylor denied him

People who regurgitate the DTs rubbish about devisiveness need to buy an original thought or two. Doesn't say much about your state of mind when you let Danny Weidler of Phil Rothfield do your thinking for you
