I tend to agree. Not worried about the Souths rumour at all considering they already have Luke and Peats and i used to be worried about the Eels but that was when all these top level players were rumoured to be signing there too, none of which have so i think it would be a step backwards for Robbie's footy career to go to a team that looks like it is going to struggle a lot more than what we will over the next few seasons.
Given how pathetic the Eels management is (signing Sandow for $500,000/season, Josh Papalii for $1,000,000/3 seasons) and considering they're going to make a play for Folau, there is no way they'll sign Robbie. Farah is smart and he's all set for a career after league, so in my opinion, he will stay with the Tigers should you guys offer him a bit more (salary cap raise and all) so I can't see you guys having trouble retaining him.
If it is life after football then staying a Tiger for life will bring plenty of opportunities after his career is over i think . Management , coaching , etc . I think if you leave a club even after so long you do shut the door on a lot of those opportunities because of that lost loyalty . He is a massive part of the club on and off the field and worth every cent spent on him .
I thought Terry Lamb was his idol. Didn't Robbie used to be a Doggies supporter. Either way i think you're right in saying Farah would like to be a one club man. Would be awesome if something in that regard got announced over the weekend before their game Monday night.
