OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

[BAGNF05]

Makes you wonder if May, Turuva etc have clauses regarding Luai being at the club. Might sound ridiculous, but I wouldn’t put anything past this club right now.

Jesus mate, I’d be super worried for you if Richo had signed Lachlan Illias.

FFS, Luai is our 7 next season! That's incredible by itself. We have the best prop in the comp, probably his brother come March. Galvin a year older, Bula a chance to reach his potential, the best spine since 2005, very decent backline and some top shelf youngster coming through. Start worrying about 2027 in 2026.

 

[tigerballs]

Well the great Richo agreed to this clause , so November next year we could lose him and galvin , so much for starting a new culture Richo , let players walk when ever it suits them . I have sort of lose interest for next season , this is just bad news for us fans

Please, snap out of it.

They may all be out the the door if they all have these get out of jail cards

Not really…he is getting $1,2M and has get out clauses.
Not exactly on par with the work of Nelson Mandela.

Nelson couldn't pass right to left.

Can someone confirm this is true and not speculation? I take back my richo post earlier today if so, it's just a stefano situation all over again.

It’s different to the Stefano situation. Stefano was left in a position were he could manipulate his way of the club through poor performance. Even if it was only subconsciously happening.

Luai’s clause is black and white.

Haven't had a decent half since the wife beater as shown by results. Getting Luai is on par with the work of Lee Kuan Yew

 

[Jux]

Pardon my ignorance, but if he does have a successful couple of years with us, what’s to stop him saying he’s worth more than 1.2 mill, pay up or goodbye ?

Who cares, Luai is our 7 for at least 2 years. You can win 2 premierships in that time.

Nelson couldn't pass right to left.

He could negotiate though and that was my point.

 

[Jux]

He’ll be 29 with a couple of new franchises coming to town.

There’s cans of worms everywhere with this.

There’s cans of worms everywhere with this.

None more so then he could leave any time he sees fit from next November. It’s a saga that will be never ending. Just wait until the first time we start struggling (unlike us, I know), then it will really hit the fan.

Is it?
How do you know this?

 

[Needaname]

Ffs it’s not likely to be November. Most player options have to be activated by a certain round within the final year. We are not going to have him parading around from November 1 next year looking for a better deal and keeping us a back up plan. He will technically still be contracted us for another year. It will be decided part way through season 26 not before.

Sounds like crap to me.

“The reported” clause is black and white.

He can walk away after 2 years.

 

[I_m_a_Tiger]

If Luai really wanted out of the contract (without a clause) - he’d get out anyway.
We just gotta improve, win more than we lose and keep the team on an upward trajectory.
