Hello my fellow suffering Tiger fans.

I just heard on the news that Robbie Farah is out and may be out for an extended period.

Very much like Mini.

I need the Kleenex again. (But this time it is for my tears).

ROBBIE Farah has joined fellow NRL star Anthony Minichiello on the sidelines with a chronic back complaint that is keeping the pair out of action indefinitely.
Recurring back pain yesterday ousted Minichiello for at least a fortnight, and although Farah was named Wests Tigers' halfback for this weekend's game against Canberra, the dynamic playmaker is no certainty to return because of a similar injury.
Having watched back surgery ruin Minichiello's past two seasons, Farah has vowed not to risk going under the knife. He has even sought out the Roosters fullback for advice and last night said he would not tackle the Raiders unless symptomatic pain in his left leg disappears before Sunday's 2pm kick-off.
"I don't know when I'll play again. I won't play until my symptoms are gone,'' Farah said. "I'm hopeful (of returning) but if I'm not confident I won't play. I don't want to rush back and make myself unavailable for the big matches at the end of the season

If Farah is out, you would assume Morris will go back to halfback, Moltzen to five eighth and Collis will fill the vacant Centre spot.

Looks like another bad weekend....

I hope he gets better real quick, but you know I would rather see him on the sidelines than play no7 out of postion because our club has no no7 options

Funnily enough my commitments got pushed back a week (as I found out last night) so I will be making the trip down this year.

I am interested to see if it will rival my feelings after the Hayne debarcle

13-3 penalty count with our 3 coming in the last 5 minutes with the game gone
Another criticism of sheens is he never blows up about referees. And don't say it doesn't get you anywhere .. they think twice about doing it the next week

It is a real worry.

I don't want to be quick to blame the club because it is all pure speculation. However Farah has had back trouble the past 2 seasons, so surely if surgery was an option October 2007 might not of been a bad time. Perhaps it is too risky? again, im not sure, but too have our star player seemingly crooked by Round 4 with a familiar complaint spells real doom for our season.

Hodgson was verging on useless last season after a stuff up with his operation saw him require further surgery and the miss the pre season.

Dear me.

It just gets better doesn't it. Don't forget we have to have the extra player drop out on Friday due to a hammy thanks to Mescia's extra squat training...

Without Farah and Benji I have no idea where our points are going to come from. Maybe everytime we get in the red zone is field goal time.You know try for about 30 field goals. And while on the gloom stuff my mail is galloway is 50/50 at best to play

that's known as the French option.

In 1990 on the Kangaroo tour, the Aussies were belting the hapless frogs from pillar to post in a few minor games, so the French players decided to start kicking field goals when they got the chance, cos it meant they would get the ball back and limit the amount of time the Australians had the ball, thus, slowing down the amount of tries they would score.

Can you please get a job, and stay out of the f*cking forum?

We get your point, going on about it every 5 minutes is not going to change anything.
as much as soneone's posts may annoy you, they have a right to post here, as you do.

Some of us have jobs that necessitate the use of computers.


Not just lifting/shovelling/carrying/grunting etc
