I mean I used to take photos of him at games and look up to himAgree with all of this. He wanted out and this was granted (what is this bullshit about him not wanting to leave or let the fans / his team mates down?) we owe him nothing, same as his brother.
Luc/manager: I/we want a release to go to the Cowboys immediately.”
Tigers: “Ok, sign here, you’re released, thanks for your service, especially that last game.”
Cows: “Wait what? We haven’t done our due diligence as you guys said no last time. Shit we haven’t even done a medical assessment and he’s supposed to be playing an international fixture OMGWTFBBQ!”
None of this is a Tigers problem. If Luc and his manager have managed to arrange this shambles in such a way that he’s now entirely uncontracted that’s on them.
Sharing an embrace with Corey Norman.
…and then he had his spat about Paps and he left us, his reason was “more money” and the lure of a huge sub marquee upgrade.
And what might be lost on the most earnest and kind hearted of his admirers is that we made him.
He was a fringe bench player at sgi with 30 minutes in him max and it was the Wests Tigers who turned him into an 60-80 minute behemoth.
A couple of games at the start of this year, he was indomitable. Had a real go.

So against that, given he left us willingly and in spite of his wonderful attitude earl speaks to, love of fans and all that, we have loyal players with financial urges, youth who need feeding and future players ready to join us to lift us up.
Accordingly, Lucy made his bed and must now lie in it. We didn’t make it for him, it’s his own doona and pillow.
On the old player v club ‘hard done by’ ledger, I reckon she’s even stevens. Gun to my head scenario, he probably owes us.
