MELBOURNE Storm coach Craig Bellamy says Robbie Farah deserves more respect from the Wests Tigers.
The Wests Tigers have told their long-time skipper to look elsewhere to play despite having two years to run on his NRL contract.
Bellamy said players were heavily criticised when they turn their backs on contracts but loyalty was a two-way street.
“It’s a sad situation when you see how long he’s played for that club and he’s captained it for years and played in a premiership-winning side and then all of sudden it ends,” said Bellamy, who coached Farah in the NSW State of Origin team.

“You’d like to see it done in a lot more respectful way than just to say if you stay you’re going to be playing reserve grade.
“That doesn’t sit well with me.”
