Farah injury

[MacDougall]

Tweeted that he is going in for scans tomorrow. Said it wasn't looking good. That's our season gone. Pack up shop.

 

[Ron's_Mate]

You could see his hand starting to swell late in the second half.

 

[Spot On]

Not only that but stupid, selfish decision not to pass from dummy half to player ready to take field goal. Thought he had rid himself of those dumb plays.

 

[hybrid_tiger]

If its broken that's our season done.

 

[Tiger05]

He played so well out there. What a game. If he is injured we are gone.

Thought he had rid himself of those dumb plays

does anyone know what the internal feelings are like with the team? What I mean is, Marshall seems peed off, is it because he doesn't want to be at 7? Farah therefore is taking more control in places where Marshall would have and this led to the dumb and you could say, greedy plays at the end?

If Farah is out, Marshall really does need to step up now and I think he can only do that if he is happy. If he is happier with 6 on his back, fantastic and then the 7 backs who finished the game last night, can be the 7 next week.

Farah has kicked FG's from DH before in that position.

It was the perfect move, free line for the kick but poorly executed

Your reading too much into this. Robbie goes for hog plays all the time. He was really good last night but there were a couple of times he should have been looking to pass not kick.

 

[madunit]

Robbie only does that when he knows that Benji is off his game.

That field goal attempt from dummy half was a set play

 

[Clifferd]

f**k.

confirmed fractured hand via Twitter. We might be officially done for 2012 unfortunately..

 

[gronkathon]

Depends on where the fracture is. It is possible to play needled up with strapping if it is in certain positions.

God knows Robbie with 1 1/2 hands is far superior then masada with two in defence or attack

Farah plays the full 90, part with a broken hand.

Wests Tigers are likely to be without skipper Robbie Farah for the remainder of the season after scans confirmed the NSW hooker has a fractured hand.

Farah suffered the injury in the Tigers' controversial golden point 23-22 loss to Canterbury on Friday night.

And following X-rays on Saturday the club revealed in a statement Farah has a fractured right hand.

"An X-ray this morning showed Farah has a fracture, he then underwent a CT scan with the club expecting the results on Monday," the statement read.

With just two rounds of the regular season remaining, Farah's season appears all but over, leaving the Tigers' finals hopes in tatters.

Safe to say Politini will not get a shot. Iosefa has been ok when asked to step in so I wont jump on his back, nor Sheens, in this instance.

I'd like to see Politini get a chance. Iosefa though has been damaging when he is out there. Problem is he has a couple of mistakes in him as well.

 

[The Charlatan]

Well that's us f**ked.

I hold on to some small sliver of hope that they prove me wrong, but I doubt it.

 

[Clifferd]

Now we have to rely on Marshall to get out of this mess, and to be fair has had a terrible season. I really wish we could have won it for Ellis this year...but maybe he should get captaincy?

 

[benched tiger]

Realistically we are probably gone without Farah,but you never know, if every body digs deep and the video ref can F@#k it up to our advantage every game we may win the comp...lol

 

[BuffaloRules]

Worst year for injuries that I can recall....

Lets hope Benji keeps intact the next two weeks...
