WHAT IS DALEY’S OBSESSION WITH FARAH?

[Tigermama]

I just can't understand the NSW selectors. For years Farah was the man for the job and they overlooked him. Now he is in, he will never be dropped.

Why should he be dropped Juro? He hasn't let anyone down. Does his job. Plays with heart and passion each and every Origin game he's been in.

Farah is not the player he was 5 years ago. Before he was much more creative, an attacking weapon. Now he is largely reduced to providing service from dummy half (which he does okay) and tackling everything that comes near him. While his tackle count is high, I question the tackles' effectiveness.

I still rate Farah highly, but just believe there are other options for NSW.

Those other options are a couple of years away, yet Juro. At the moment none of them are grabbing my attention.

Is it an obsession when you pick the best player for the job?
He never lets the team down and always gives it everything he's got.
Ennis on the other hand… has anybody ever watched him play Origin?
Really stepped up and took his chance when Farah was injured for Game 3 last year.
Was on par with every other game he has played in a Blues jersey.
Can't believe that anyone purporting to follow the Tigers could even mention Ennis or other options to picking Farah.

Ennis is like Andrew Johns….pretty average at rep level;-)

Yeh! same as Lewis.

:laughing: geeze show some originality. That was hopeless.

I did Stryker - almost as much as mentioning Johns and Ennis in the same sentence.

Sure Happy, if that is who you thought I meant - your perogative.

Russ I'm a massive Luke Lewis fan , one of the few back rowers I've seen play for NSW that doesn't go missing

He is as close I've seen to a Qlder in a blue jersey
