Wests Tigers sign Robbie Farah for 2018 Official

[Tweed_Tiger]

Does anyone know what rounds Robbie played this year?

Games against the sharks and the titans.
Full 80 min games,

I can’t find the offical list. He seems to be in limbo at the moment, out of Souths list and not yet in the Tigers.

Bring back Skando and Scott Prince and I'll be happy! I bumped into Scott at a cafe he looked fit lol.

Prince couldn’t do any worse than he did on commentary.

Treated the Club? He was bullied into Reserve Grade to force him out cause the Club didn't want to honour his Contract.
There's 15 other Clubs if you are that down about it hop along.

hop along where? geez, getting personal now are we? I am not down. Who told you I was? oh my, some people really? I was just expressing the concern I have for the club. The club has made the decision and I am ok with that… they know better than I do. So we will leave it at that. Good luck coach!!!

PS. they were honouring his contract - only that he was playing in Reserve Grade - there was no promise that he will play in FG all the time or did I miss something? was there a promise in the contract that he will be in FG all the time?

oh boy, some people... welcome RF and good luck coach!!!

Um he played Origin that year when they put him in Reserve Grade says more about the Coach he had at the time and where is he now? Back pedalled to the place where they would feel sorry for him and give him employment :laughing:

He's here for half year you'll be right

Exactly FT, it was all about JT and his ego, he had the current origin hooker in reserve grade and Rankin at hooker in 1st grade, the board should have sacked the fool right then for such a stupid team selection, club first my backside JT, so glad you are no longer our problem.

Yeah the fact we did not get sufficient cover since he left and the players that were to lead the club left shows poor football operations.

Im going to let you blokes squabble amongst yourselves whether or not Robbie coming back is a good or bad decision…

Im off to visit BBF he has got the free piss flowing as well as cabanossi,cheese, biscuits and the bbq going....

ps..I think it is a great move getting him back,he will fill a very big void in our game.... :wink:

Ergh. I'm not happy with it but end of the day if it's best for the team so be it

writing has to be on the wall for Matt mcilwrick then

 

[Guest]

As long as he puts his best foot forward for the good of the team. Pretty sure he will.

 

[TIGERPOWER]

The past can’t be changed but at the end of the day we all west’s tiger supporters and want our team to do well. Liddle is our future (hopefully) but he isn’t ready now and Farah will give us the experience we need. I think let’s judge him on what he does now rather than what happened previously. Hopefully he does well and more importantly we win games, as he is just another player wearing a tigers jersey nothing more nothing less.

 

[momo_amp_medo]

It’s what we need and it has happened.
I think we will have a better team for it.
Welcome back champion!

 

[Knuckles]

Congratulations to all concerned …... a master stroke decision that could still see us playing finals football ...

Hodgson, O'Neill, Skendalis, Prince, Whaitua, Galia and Fitzhenry, WOW :sign:

He is under contract for next year. He needs a better manager who will leak stories to the media about being dumped to reserve grade and overlooked in favour of nufties like Godinet and how no-one is looking after his welfare etc. etc.

 

[Snake]

One day soon our club hopefully can sign Marquee players and move away from signing reserve grade has beens!

 

[greatodensraven]

Hopefully an opportunity for Robbie & the club to make right some previous wrongs.

Go Tigers!

I agree he is better than the hookers we have. If there is no problem with his attitude and culture then we probably should have chased him 7 weeks ago before our season went pear shaped. The rumours have been there that Souths were shopping him around since the start of the year.

 

[Harvey]

Can I be the first to call it that towards the back end of the year, Robbie starts talking about how he feels freshened up, is glad to be at the club & ready to go around again next year. If the club won't sign him cue the next soap opera playing out in the media.

 

[Mccarry]

I’m truly happy with this.

He is a very good player, comes cheap, fills some massive holes for us.

Removes need for lock to be a tackling machine. We can have a big body.

Another kicking option

Keeps the defence guessing from marker

MOST IMPORTANTLY: can help mentor Liddle into our long term solution.

Allows us to move forward and paint over an ugly stain in our history

Great leadership Cleary.

Yep…good post
Im not his biggest fan but theres no point in me carrying on some grudge in my support of my team, the clubs leaders have made this decision...hopefully the future is positive and he helps the teams go forward.

Happy...do you need some

Whatever really, I’m fine with it. The only negative about it will be the build up to Leichhardt next week. Will all be about one person, and the game itself will take a backseat. I’m sure after a couple of games the novelty will wear off, the same way it did for Marshall, especially if we aren’t winning. Then he’ll just be another player and normal programming will resume.

 

[simonthetigerrrr]

You sound salty to me.

I reckon farah playing gives us a big chance of winning and 5k more bums on seats at Leichhardt and if we start winning games I will be enjoying the feel good novelty of it. The media surely will!

We wuv wobbie.
