Wests Tigers champion hooker Robbie Farah has sensationally been included for his side’s final-round NRL blockbuster against Cronulla at Leichhardt Oval.

Farah was initially left out of Michael Maguire’s 17 due to a broken leg suffered a month ago, however, was a last-minute inclusion after Corey Thompson was ruled out in the warm up with a strained achilles.

The 35-year-old Farah will start off the bench with Benji Marshall expected to start at dummy-half.

Farah has already announced he will retire at the end of the season.
