Who will be missed the most?

Yep I do Goose, Farah hasn't exactly been on fire and his injury certainly hasn't helped that. Based on yesterday's performance I felt Farah stifled the attack at times.

That is because Farah is injured, surely a fully fit farah is our most valuable player (along with Benji) therefore he must be the player we are missing most

The previous 2 games, we've won and I reckon we would have won them even if Robbie wasn't playing. It was the combination of Lui and Benji doing the damage, obviously more so Benji, but only because Lui took a lot of pressure off him.

I rate Farah, but I don't think he really set the world on fire last year either. He was good, but it was the Benji and Lui show last year and prior to Lui's injury, it looked like it was going to be more of the same.

Are you guys putting Lui ahead of Farah , Ellis , Lawrence and Tuquiri on something?
All of them are rep players - and Farah is our captain!

You're putting a winger, a 2nd rower and a centre ahead of our first string half back? Are you sure you're not on something?

Seriously? anyone here not been watching the Tigers since Scott Prince left??
 
No decent halfback steering the troops, no decent team, no cohesion in attack.

'07, '08, '09 how well did we go without a good halfback during those years eh? How many were here reading the posts crying out for a halfback?
 
Benji plays his best football with an organising half next to him and we all know what happens when Benji plays his best football. Lui is the bigger loss foe me.

You make a fair point - but to suggest a winger in Lote is even in the running makes your view redundant!!!

Farah was critical in our Warriors & Raiders wins!

And Princey is a low bum (did you watch him in 06 when he tanked while waiting to head up north)?????
 
Gee Red don't know about Princey tanking it . The game against Brisbane when he thru the worst forward pass I have seen that someone got away with was memorable . Just kidding Red he was not good
 
Yeah I watched during '06 when we were hit hard with injuries, again I'll bring up '07, '08 and '09…..

Sorry, I consider Lui a bigger loss
 
Lui by a country mile… Robbie Farah will be just as big a loss for his leadership. Not having your 9 & 7 on the field is a little distressing...

:laughing: :laughing: :laughing: Beau Ryan made this list??? :roll

:master: amen.

The phrase "Scott Prince" should be considered a swear word on this forum and automatically edited.

And Lui is a far bigger single loss than Farah, Lawrence, Tuqiri or Ellis, although I'd reckon Ellis would be up there too.

yeah bit like having Fitzhenry on the list
 
I am astounded that people are rating Lui more important than Farah….. Let alone Ellis and Lawrence, whose running lines make Benji all the more dangerous.

Farah is a superstar, Lui is a half back that last year was below average in performance most weeks, and this year has been alright, he is not a great organiser, despite what a few people are saying this on here, he is a running half back, who has a good short passing game. His long passing is weak as is his kicking. Lui is a talented kid, but to suggest he is more valuable than a fully fit Farah I think is laughable.

Further more, Lui is going to be replaced by Moltzen, who many believe is better than Lui anyway, Farah is going to be replaced by Ndaira, no offence to him, but is not in the same world as Farah.

Given how Farah has played this year, I would stick my neck out and still say that Lui is a bigger loss at this point. You're entitled to your opinion as is everyone else, but it doesn't necessarily make it the right one…

Its our main attacking side, without them our main side of attacks gone..

the way farah has played this year is due to his injury, we are missing a fully fit farah
 
Ha, yah Lui should not be leading this.

I'm a huge of of Lui and have really enjoyed watching him become the player he is now and he's still on the rise. Def an important part of the team, but not the most out of those players.

Farah is still there, so don't know why he's on the list. I really don't think his injury is affecting his form as much as people are trying to make it seem. He's just having a slow start to the season - it's not like he's had any shockers, with the exception of maybe last week with some stupid decisions.

For me it's Ellis, Fulton and Lawrence for their hole running.

Are you certain of that though? Are you sure he hasn't copped a lull in form?
