Born in Sydney, New South Wales, Farah is of Lebanese descent and was educated at St Mel's Primary, Campsie,[9] De La Salle College Ashfield, and the University of Sydney, graduating with a Bachelor of Economics in 2010.

Farah is a supporter of Liverpool F.C. in English football's Premier League, his favourite player being Steven Gerrard.[10][11][12][13][14]

He played his junior rugby league with the Enfield Federals and the Leichhardt Wanderers.

Playing career

As an 18-year-old in 2002, he toured with the Lebanese team, playing France in Tripoli and scoring a try.[15]

2003

In round 13, Farah made his NRL debut for the

Manly-Warringah Sea Eagles at Leichhardt Oval, playing off the interchange bench in the Tigers 30–38 loss.[16] Farah played in 4 matches in his debut year
.

Farah's season was marred by a knee re-construction and his first-grade playing time was restricted to 3 matches for 2004.[17]

2005

With Wests Tigers hookers

2005 NRL grand final winning team over the North Queensland Cowboys.[21] He finished the season
with 27 matches and 8 tries.

2006

In September, Farah was selected in the Prime Minister's XIII squad.[24] Soon after, he re-signed with the Tigers on a contract to the end of the 2010 season.[25]

Farah playing for the Wests Tigers

2007

In May, Farah played for the NSW City team again, scoring a try.[26] He was named hooker of the year at the 2007 Dally M Awards, and was one point behind the Player of the Year, Johnathan Thurston. Some pundits claimed Farah should have won.[27] Farah was again named the Wests Tigers player of the year, playing in all the Tigers 24 matches, and scoring 7 tries, kicking 12 goals and 4 field goals.[28]

2008

In August, Farah was named in the preliminary 46-man Kangaroos squad for the 2008 World Cup.[29][30] He was not selected in the final 24-man squad. Farah finished the 2008 NRL season with 17 matches and 6 tries.

2009

On 13 January, it was announced that Farah had chosen to re-sign with the Wests Tigers until the end of the 2013 season, spurning a lucrative offer from the

2009 Four Nations. He made his international debut from the bench in the match against England, relieving starting hooker Cameron Smith just before halftime.[39] A week later, he played in the starting line-up in the team that beat France 42–4.[40]

2010

On 13 February, Farah played off the interchange bench for the

Cbus Super Stadium.[41] He again captained the NSW City team.[42] At the 2010 Dally M Awards Farah came second behind Todd Carney by a point, and was also named Hooker of the Year.[43] He played in all of the Tigers 27 matches for the year, scoring 6 tries and kicking 4 field goals. Farah was named in the Australian squad for the 2010 Four Nations.[44] With first-choice hooker Cameron Smith playing in all matches, Farah made just one appearance, coming off the bench in the "dead rubber" match against New Zealand.[45]

2011

Farah played in all 27 matches for the year, scoring 7 tries and kicking 3 field goals. Farah was again named as second-string hooker in the 2011 Four Nations, but withdrew from the tournament for family reasons before he could make an appearance.[46]

2012

Farah returned to State of Origin football in 2012. In the weeks leading up to the team selection, Farah was contacted by New South Wales coach

Brad Fittler Medal for the New South Wales outstanding player of the series, as voted for by his team-mates.[52]

Making 16 appearances during the season, Farah surpassed

Dally M hooker of the year award.[53] With the departure of Chris Heighington at the end of the season, Farah became the most experienced and longest-serving player at the Wests Tigers. Farah was in the press in September, when he called for harsher penalties for Twitter abusers after receiving a tweet about his recently deceased mother that he described as, "vile."[54] He said, "the laws are piss weak and people should be accountable for their comments."[55] Soon after he issued an apology, when it was revealed that he had earlier tweeted that Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard should be given, "a noose," for a 50th birthday present.[55]

2013

In February, Farah made his return to the NRL All Stars team, playing off the bench.[56] On 22 March, Farah signed a new 4-year contract to remain with the Wests Tigers until the end of the 2017 season. He said, "As captain of the club, I see myself as having the responsibility, when things aren't as good as we’d like them to be ... I see it as my challenge to help turn the club around, not to just give up and walk away. You might get cranky at some things, but you've got to ride the good times and the bad times. That’s what it's all about."[57]

Farah was chosen again to play for City, a record sixth appearance for a hooker, and the fourth consecutive time as captain.

Campbelltown Stadium.[61] Farah finished the season with one try from 18 matches. In September, Farah was selected as captain of the Prime Minister's XIII squad.[62] In October, Farah was selected in the Australian 2013 World Cup squad, and played in 3 matches.[63]

2014

In February, Farah captained the Tigers inaugural

Suncorp Stadium, with the Blues winning the 100th State of Origin match 12–8.[67]
He played in game 2 of the series in the 6–4 win, resulting in the Blues breaking their 8-year losing streak to Queensland, and game 3.

In July, a feud erupted between Farah and Gorden Tallis over claims by the former great that Farah had told him Michael Potter "can't coach". Tallis said "Robbie Farah told me to my face when I was on Triple M last year on a Saturday show, he told me that Mick Potter can't coach," Tallis said. "I don't go on Chinese whispers; I go on what he told me." Later, Tigers coach Mick Potter said that Farah didn't want to leave the club. "We are fine and we have always been fine, there has been no confrontation at all," Potter said.[68][69]

Farah completed the season with 5 tries in 18 matches. In September, Farah was selected in the Prime Minister's XIII squad.[70] He was then selected for the Australian Four Nations squad. Farah played in one match of the series, in Australia's 12–30 loss to New Zealand.[71]

2015

With Paul Gallen unavailable due to injury, Farah was again chosen to captain in NSW in the opening game of 2015 State of Origin series. Despite suffering a shoulder injury, Farah was described as, "still one of the most influential players on the field," in the 10–11 loss. The Sydney Morning Herald said "his workload with and without the ball was huge, completing a game-high 55 tackles and cleaning up a Cooper Cronk grubber kick when the Maroons appeared poised to score. No wonder the Queenslanders wanted him off the park."[72] Between the first and second State of Origin matches, Farah made no appearances for the Wests Tigers dues to his shoulder injury. It was said he, "Seemed to have a target painted on that bung shoulder," as Queensland forced him to make a game-high 48 tackles in the second game of the series as NSW won the game 26–18 at the MCG.[73]

In August, Farah was given permission from the Tigers to investigate opportunities to continue his playing career at another club from 2016 onward.

New South Wales Cup if he stayed, his relationship with coach Jason Taylor turning sour, and about his $800,000 a season contract chewing up the Tigers salary cap.[75][76] Farah dropped himself as the Tigers captain and was replaced by Aaron Woods,[77][78]
having set a club record 148 matches as captain.

2016

With Farah missing some games early in the season, it was noted that Wests Tigers had won one game from seven with him playing, and four of six games he was absent from. There was further drama when Jason Taylor chose to play him from the bench and rested him after State of Origin matches.[79] He was chosen for all 3 games for NSW, and it was said, "Running Robbie ran the Queenslanders ragged early on and added 44-tackles to another quality Origin performance," in game 2.[80] He topped the tackle count again in the third match, the only match won by NSW.[81] A week later, Farah was dropped to reserve grade by Jason Taylor[82] and remained in NSW cup until the end of the season. He then signed with the South Sydney Rabbitohs ending a thirteen-year career with the Wests Tigers.[83] Farah finished his drama-filled season with 2 tries in 9 appearances.

Farah with North Sydney

2017

In Round 1, Farah made his highly anticipated club debut for the Rabbitohs against his former club of 13 seasons the Wests Tigers. He started at hooker in the 18–34 loss at

Hunter Stadium.[87]
Farah played all 24 of Souths matches for the season, alternating between starting at hooker and playing from the bench.

Farah returned to representing Lebanon for the 2017 World Cup and played in the country's first ever World Cup match victory over France on 29 October 2017.

2018

Having shared the role of hooker with Damien Cook in 2017, Farah was demoted to reserve grade with the North Sydney Bears at the start of 2018, with Cook taking on the role full-time. Farah later said he considered retirement during this time. "I just didn’t want to be there. It was hard, mate. Really hard. I don’t want to disrespect Norths because they are a great club … but it was embarrassing for me. You get there, you get heckled by the crowd. There's always a smart-arse."[88] Farah made his first appearance for Souths in their Round 13 victory over Cronulla, filling in while Cook played State of Origin.[89] Despite his absence from first grade, Farah was praised for his performance which included "a whopping" 62 tackles.[90]

On 21 June, Farah returned to the West Tigers on a mid-season transfer, and was chosen as the first grade hooker the same week. Souths General manager Shane Richardson said they would not have released Farah to any other club, but, "The reason we let Robbie go was because it was the right thing to do."[91] He had made 2 appearances for Souths before his departure.

On 21 July, he played his 250th game for the Wests Tigers in their victory over ladder-leaders, the Rabbitohs. During the match, Farah was knocked out in the 71st minute when he attempted to tackle Souths player George Burgess.[92] Farah started at hooker for every game at Wests Tigers after he rejoined the club, making 9 appearances. Farah's contract renewal for 2019 was announced at the same time as long-time teammate Benji Marshall. He said, "Once he texted me late last night to tell me he was staying on again, it relieved the nerves, to be honest. To know he was there for another year - the two old boys at the club - it made me feel a lot better."[93]

2019

Declared the "King of Leichhardt"[94] in round 1, Farah scored two tries and topped the tackle count for the Tigers. He said, "The boys calling us grand-dads and stuff... I try and take that a bit personal, you know. I go out there and try and challenge the younger boys and try and show them that the old fella's still got it."[95]

On 24 July, Farah spoke to the media ahead of his 300th first grade appearance and how he had received messages of support. Farah then used the opportunity to speak about former Wests Tigers head coach Jason Taylor saying "I wouldn’t want to hear from JT anyway, at the time I was told by him and Rod Reddy, I’d finish my career in reserve grade. But I’m here now - 'JT' is coaching reserve grade'’. Farah went on to say "I was running around with the Bears in NSW Cup and I was ready to walk away from the game. It was pretty hard to try and find the motivation to go and play and I thought I was done.[96][97]

In round 21 against

ANZ Stadium with a leg injury. Scans revealed that Farah had suffered a leg fracture. On 19 August 2019, Farah spoke to the media saying that he was considering going against doctors advice to play. Farah went on to say "If we've got to win to make the semis, I'll cut it off if I have to, at the end of the day it's my decision but they definitely recommended that (I don't play again). It's just a matter of gathering the information from them as best I could and whatever risk I put upon myself is my decision".[98][99]

In round 25 of the 2019 NRL season, Farah was ruled out of the Wests Tigers game against Cronulla-Sutherland but was then dramatically recalled to the team as Wests player Corey Thompson was injured in the warm up. Wests went into the game with Cronulla knowing that the winner would reach the finals. Farah led Wests out onto the field of a packed Leichhardt Oval in what would be his final game as a player. Cronulla won the match 25–8.[100][101]
