Who really knows what is going on internally....

Maybe he's signed or agreed to terms with a club in semis contention and it's dependant on it being announced once that clubs commitments this season are complete
 
Its definitly about the money thats owed to him and negotiating the final amount.

The article says that but I have no idea why Farah cares. Robbie will get paid out the full amount. It's just who picks up the difference.

I still reckon he could be here next year but I hope not.

Thanks for the link, just read the article. But it's looking like an outcome is not far away!

Let's hope they get it done without much more squabbling!

I agree, sad but it is what it is! Ours is to pray that our Tigers keep moving onwards and upwards.
I hope he goes well where ever he plays. But just not against us!

RF has concerns obviously about his payout figure. Is it true the club has been attempting to renegotiate his deal to get him to take a pay cut? Has there been pressure applied to him to agree?

It seems more likely the more this continues. He has 3 clubs chasing him and they all have money to spend (ennis retiring, rein not re-signed). We keep hearing he is negotiating his pay out from the togers, so obviously they "arent just paying him what he is owed" like many on here have stated.

Who is the guy that has inside information and comes on here every now and then. I think he needs to update us.

There's nothing in that article that suggests anything you've speculated .

My speculation comes from the part that says he is still negotiating his pay out from the tigers. But as you correctly said its speculation.

How is that "obviously" what is happening? He might have already signed somewhere for all we know. Alternatively the negotiations may be taking a long time because rival clubs are trying to force us to take as much as possible and we are resisting and hoping to trigger a bidding war.

The club have no negotiating power to avoid paying him out, which is why people are saying that he will get every cent.

I think the issue maybe that the Tigers are wanting to change the terms of the contract? We all know there is a minimum that he must be registered for under the cap with the new club and the rest goes into our cap.

They may be putting pressure on RF to take a paycut in these transfer discussions? We all state he will get what he is owed but that's not exactly the case if all parties agree including nrl, a contract can be regnotiated and replaced so the club maybe saying new club pay $300 we pay $300 and RF cop $300 Pay cut??

I would say all things being equal RF should be at least a $400 - 500k signing (putting opinions aside). And as others have said in the forums we haven't presented him well and RF and his advisors haven't help neither.

Interesting times ahead but something has to give!

It Is interesting the oft repeated "he will get what he is owed" when those who want RF gone post about his treatment. If he is not offered what he is entitled to meaning the qualification is not met, does that change the views of those wanting him gone?

Theoretically, if WTs is attempting to renegotiate his contract with a view to him taking a substantial paycut and he doesn't agree, what then?

It doesn't change my view at all - If Farah and his management are not happy with the terms they don't have to take it - Its their decision whether they accept whatever is negotiated. Its obvious he isnt going to take a massive pay cut - he would be a fool if he did - but if there is a figure that he and his management are willing to accept so be it.

So what does the below mean?

**_"The veteran rake’s first priority is trying to finalise his payout figure with the Tigers and he won’t make a call on his future until it’s completed."_**
 
Or this taken from the DT about the RLPA survey. It was the last paragraph that interested me most.

Farah is being hunted by the Sharks, the Rabbitohs and the Dragons but won’t leave until the Tigers honour his back-ended deal.

First thoughts on the DT article were that the RLPA survey stuff was filler for the real issue which was the last para.
 
It's only a "real issue" for you and bug-a-lugs tho… Why so concerned?

Your constant speculating that paints the club in a poor light is what is reminiscent of levick & ayoub.

We've all been over it 1000 times before

I asked a question. As ive said its all speculation. But as you seem to know whats going on 100% please tell us. I wish i had the personal relations and connections at the club like you do, thats why im asking. But im guessing you know as much as we do,

I think you've nailed it Ink .
Real WTs fans are excited about what's going to happen on the weekend .
These 2 pretenders only want to paint the club & JT in a bad light .
Either Levick & Ayoub or close associates .

Most have assumed "he will get what he is owed". But is this really the case? I'm interested to know and as you appear to be acutely sensitive to anything vaguely negative towards the club it makes me more interested.
