thats like me saying Hodgson at the moment is better than stewart even though he was inhjured a lot this year '

Farah and Smith are both entering there prime and are around the same age

Carney beating a 33 year old? Hardly makes him a better player

according to some tigers fans it does
farah is apparently a better player because he outplayed Smith on the occasions they met this year... by that logic Todd Carney >>>>>>>>> Andrew Johns

I rate Farah ahead of Smith cos he can bust a game open more than the latter.Chip kicks,field goals,long range tries,short range ones,setting them up with kicks.

Smith is a top player,but doesnt have the offensive powers of Robbie.

And just for the record.....I have no delusions about our players unlike other fans.

Marshall is not close to the best 6.Nor is any other of our players close to best in his position.

Saying we are voting for Farah cos we are one eyed is ridiculous.

At worst he is the second best hooker in the comp yet we are one eyed??....please,and this coming from Queenslander's,Raider and Storm fans.....as if you blokes dont ahve a slant on this????

Classic.

I'd be happy with either of them, but not both. Smith is the incumbent and I'll go with that until Farah shows me that he has definitely gone past him on a consistent basis because those arguing that he has are underplaying or not recognising the quality of Smith's play.

It's not so long since we were having this discussion about Smith and Buderus, Smith being held up as a better player while Buderus was the incumbent.

One thing about Smith is his smarts. He's as big a flopper as Fitzgibbon but no-one seems to mention it, so he gets away with it.

don't point the finger at us. If a raiders fan says we are a chance of winning a game this year we get called one eyed.

What the???

you= When Smith starts chipping over the top,regathering and setting up tries and popping field goals in the last second to win games then I'll change my mind,until then my boy Farah IMO is number one.

Cooper Cronk does all that and more atm...

Also Smith does all that and more at the moment.. does Farrah Kick long ranged 40/20's to turn the match on its head?? he's a match winner Farrah is just a toiler atm..

And you guys are delusional mark Riddel by your logic is better then Farrah :lol:

some of u people dont relize how important that farah/halatau combo was too us in 05 it basically won us a premiership

so its not like farah has been good for only 1 year

06 he had a few injuries 07 he came back ass strong as any player in the comp until he got injured last few rounds

"this poll isnt fair we all know how melbourne and Qld people hate the tigers so we all know who they are gonna vote for"

I missed that and it's funny on so many levels. Why does everybody think Melbourne and Qld people hate the Tigers? Is it because you have so many tickets on yourselves thinking we care?

And Melbourne fans are going to vote for Smith because they hate the Tigers? You're on heroin. Melbourne fans will vote for Smith because he's their man, just like Tigers fans will vote for Farah because he's their man.

Get over yourself.

qld people have always hate the tigers going back too all those days when ben elias smashed qld :p just cause we merged with wests doesnt mean the hate isnt there anymore

Melbourne people just hate the tigers always have i live here so i would think i know i cant go to a game anymore without lots of people saying it

I dont hate the Tigers despite losing our only grand final to them, in fact i like them more than any other NSW team because i can see the similarities between them and the cowboys. Both clubs have bigger more successful clubs around them (although brisbane isnt all that close) getting most of the attention from media and fans. I was happy for them to win a premiership, i just wasnt happy it was against my team.

On the other side of the coin i cant stand Melbourne, i like some of their players but as a club i hate them, but its clear as day that Smith is a far far better player than Farrah in every way and until Farrah shuts his mouth about being selected for rep teams and just gets on with it i wont change my mind.

Farah has kicked decisive 40/20's,not saying he is better than Smith,but I wouldn't swap him for Smith either.

WTF???
