Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

I cant be the only one that feels the bulldogs will announce his signing and we look like clowns again

Jarome Luai

The issue is he‘s a so called club legend. Yes, I know he isn’t, never even played for WT’s, but that’s the way the media portray him. So could you imagine Thurston publicly discouraging a player signing with the Cowbys or Cam Smith advising a player not to sign with the Storm. Would not happen...

From the SMH

Canterbury have verbally put forth their own five-year deal for Luai. As of Tuesday afternoon, the Panthers had yet to receive formal notice of Luai’s intention to sign with a rival club.

Which is lower than the Tigers offer

Where did I say entire season?

Oh you are right and I retract my statement, apologies.

I read it as "entire season" but actually you said "entire session". Sorry for that.

Maybe he views their roster as better than ours?

I doubt it…

I assume this is not some spur of the moment decision he has made to join the Tigers … no doubt he has heard “the vision” from Benji and perhaps by Richo now as well .. all the juniors waiting for his leadership …

He then makes the decision to walk away from his mates at the Panthers and join the Tigers … and then he is going to can that because the Dogs offered him less money?

It’s possible … but to me unlikely …

Maybe he thinks again if the Bulldogs offer more money …so until that happens …

The leaks are coming from Penrith, they are playing games with us, with everyone. That's why Luai is dirty. It's very possible that it was the Dogs all along that he was going to and Penrith are driving a smear campaign that they are happy to drag us into.

Before anyone says I'm crazy, I have no doubt they hate us enough to do it. Ivan is one of the lowest humans in the game and will never forget how us fans treated him when he left. He is completely unaware of what he did to us and no amount of success will ever help him let his hate for us go. He is a sick human and Luai has just realised it.

I have no faith in us getting Luai until it's officially announced by the club.

 

[king_sirro]

This seems quite different to the Moses or Latrelle circuses, they were never seriously coming here, just using us to boost their price.
Whereas Luai has actually told his team mates he is leaving Penrith to come to the Tigers.
I feel like he definitely intends to come here, that could change if a bigger offer comes in, but I have a lot of confidence.

Where is the proof he said Tigers in that huddle? Not saying it isn't true, just that it's only media reports that I've seen, and Penrith are feeding the media on this.

I dunno… the Dogs interest in him seems half hearted so far…just doing enough so they can tell their fans “we tried to get him”..

Penrith can drag their feet,,, but they are on the clock …

That's how the Dogs operate. They fake half hearted but behind the scenes they are all in

That’s good for them.

So Luia has agreed to sign with the Tigers so he could “join Ivan rubbing it in “ when he flips to the Dogs?

I thought he wasn’t talking with Ivan?

No no, I'm not saying that. Luai has nothing to do with it.

Anonymous internet guy doesn't fill me with faith. Hope it's right though. My conspiracy theory is gaining momentum in my own mind haha

How can you put no stock in that, yet get so panicked over the 10 day period rubbish, and what threat the Dogs are when it’s all hearsay?

This one is a bit out there mate,,,

Im sure the Tigers is his destination so far … although stupid rules don’t make it certain at this stage

I haven't mentioned the 10 day period. I've actually taken no notice of that crap

 

[clontarfkid]

I too am feeling uneasy re Dogs..the 10 day BS just doesnt work for teams like us for players going in either direction
Weve given Luai a great shot.our offer is outstanding in both $$ and term
.Richo is the best club advocate we cld possibly get..
and Laundy has too much $$!!
Weve done all we can do...
