To celebrate back-to-back Leichhardt Oval games to start the 2023 NRL season, the Sackville Hotel and spray artist Sid Tapia teamed up with the mighty Wests Tigers to immortalise West Tigers Robbie Farrah in the hotel’s car park (in what is expected to be the first of many Wests Tigers legends to be enshrined on the Legends’ Wall).
Farrah is known as the King of Leichhardt - Leichhardt Oval being the spiritual home of the former Balmain Tigers before the team amalgamated with Western Suburbs in 1999.
Tigers fans are fiercely one-eyed when it comes to their beloved Tigers and will support them through the ups and downs with Farrah regarded as one of the club's modern-day legends.
Sid Tapia has created a fitting tribute to one of the teams greats - right in the heart of Tiger Land.
"Legends Lane" is located in the carpark of the Sackville Hotel (off Wise Street).
