Craig Garvey off to the dogs according to RLW. Someone mentioned he also took down the description that he plays for St George Illawarra on his profile, on either twatter or Instanarcissist. If true and with Balin going to wests, does that mean Farah is on his way?

Sounds a bit like freeing up some $$$ for 2017 as (havili/mccrone) much cheaper options as a 2nd 9.

Was off contract. Will end up being a decent player. But Havili would have jumped him in the pecking order.

Havili would be excellent cover for a 80min hooker. Big enough to be able to come on as a forward and able to cover for the 80min hooker in the event of injury or just give such a valuable player a rest when a game was already won or lost. Otherwise he will probably be a Cutters interchange hooker. The Warriors preferred a 30 something journeyman (Nathan Friend) over him.

I believe this is how they intend to use him - cover for hooker and backrow off the bench.

Not too cut up about losing Garvey.

Farah......nnnnnnnooooooooooo.......warning, warning, danger Will Robinson. Injury prone, getting old, supposedly will be out for any club during Origin and seen as negative influence at his current club. Let's welcome him with open arms !!

What the Warriors do and dont prefer isnt too much of a concern for me, and shouldnt be justification for Havilis position. From what I've actually seen of him, he is quite a skillful hooker with a great running game, good passing and short kicking game, and energy. Will make a great impact hooker from the bench (whether thats for Farah or Rein, who knows!). But he is far above Cutters interchange hooker, thats for sure.

Farah won't be signing with us after benji got told he won't be needed for 2017. If we we are after a rein replacement, Segeyaro is apparently on the nose a bit at Penrith. Not sure how true as Penrith just let korosau go, but maybe. Should also have a look at some of their outside backs while we are at it. Maybe Whare?

Yeah, according to one wing of the resident Bullgrubs provocateurs Farah won't come because Benji is playing for the Dragons. Now according to this ******* Farah won't sign because Benji is being shown the door. But if it were Ryan Hinchcliff rather than Farah it would be the greatest signing the Dragons had ever made.......:?

Hinchliff is a plank and would fall on his face outside the Storm system. I'd wager he knows that too.

You never know they might give Benji a extra year to sign Farah for two years and they both can retire together. Who knows but its a hard call with Benji but Farah for two years would give us real hope of winning another comp. People can love him or hate him but he has vision and that would help our 6 and 7 s with our attack.

Stop dribbling and go back to your tiggers forum. We all know your true colours are not red and white but really black and orange. I know you guys are in a bit of a slump but there is no need to jump on a dragons forum to spread your BS. Next you will want Lawrence to be signed on as our strike centre. Anymore of your teams favourites you would like to see in our colours?

Are they the same age? I think Farah will be good for a year or two longer than Benji.

A Benji / Farrah combination would be good for our squad in 2016. It would make us condenders for the title. Who knows, maybe Mary will extend Benji for another year if all goes well.
