ROBBIE Farah stressed, worried, overtaken by uncertainty? Think again.

Clearly he knows where his future in the NRL lies because why else could the unwanted Wests Tigers hooker appear so happy?

Captured in these exclusive photos by The Daily Telegraph on Saturday afternoon, a relaxed Farah was all smiles as he gathered alongside the 2015 NSW State of Origin squad for a relaxing cruise on Sydney Harbour.

WANTED: Roosters in line to sign Farah

Led by NSW coach Laurie Daley and captain Paul Gallen, Farah was one of the group of 20 Blues players including Mitchell Pearce, Boyd Cordner, Aaron Woods, Josh Dugan, Beau Scott, Andrew Fifita and Ryan Hoffman invited aboard the multi-million dollar super yacht.

Meeting in the city early this morning to review and ultimately put a cap on their disappointing Origin series loss to Queensland once and for all, Daley and the NSW squad then spent the afternoon on the harbour despite the cloud of uncertainty hanging over their hooker, Farah.

Perhaps Farah’s relaxed vibe had more to do with the company he was keeping, as Daley has long been one of his greatest supporters.

Farah requested a release from the Wests Tigers late on Friday night and looks certain to sever ties with the club over the coming days.

The Daily Telegraph reported earlier today that Farah held a secret meeting with Sydney Roosters coach Trent Robinson last week as the Tricolours manoeuvre to try and orchestrate one of rugby league’s great swindles.

The suggestion that Farah could be set to join the minor premiers was fuelled by Paul Gallen’s post on Instagram which pictured the hooker with Boyd Cornder and Mitch Pearce with the caption “I’m not sure what’s doing but these 3 won’t let me in on the convo? What’s doing? #Roosters”.
