OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

[Rock Hopper Steve]

JL is down at Penriff plaza right now, my mates Mrs just got a pic with him.
She didn’t ask the important questions like when is Spencer coming over?

Can understand that may have been out of line and probably would have been given a misleading answer.

Nah, I reckon JL would have loved it. He’s good for a laugh. But yeah I don’t reckon he sits down and goes through the contract with her.

Just as well all of today's clauses can really do your head in.

What about, what is this injury Galvin slipped up about?

Best winning percentages in history (>100 games):

1. Eddie Lumsden 88.20%
2. Reg Gasnier 83.87%
3. Brian Clay 82.63%
4. Jarome Luai 81.68%

By the end of 2025 Luai could have the second highest winning percentage of all time or be sub-70%.

Predictions?

Definately below 80% 😂

Not enough organising our shape. It is taking too long to offer more than a one-out hit up in our sets. This is on the halfback.

We should get the Juro curve out for JL’s winning percentage,

I thought Benji sold Luai on moving out of Cleary’s shadow, not playing second fiddle?
Why is this not happening?
It appears Benji now has him playing second fiddle to a 19yo?
I was really hoping Benji could make it, but the way he is pitting the older and younger against each other makes him better suited to a political career with Albo.

It’s been 1 game settle down haha

Exactly what I'm thinking. Give it another game or few. I'm sure with Api back, things will change to.

Benji has been coaching for 2 seasons not one game.

The pursuit of excellence now has a time frame before we hear the starting gun?
Another few games or another few seasons?
Everything will be going well at some point in the future…..
Sorry to walk in on your dream…as you were.

Did you expect Galvin and Luai to look like they had played 50 games together? While missing half there spine they had spent the whole pre season training with?

Gee, sounds like something Bateman said. He’s disrespecting the older guys in favour of the younger ones . Mmmmm….

Nope, but I didn’t expect Benji to instruct Luai to relinquish valuable red zone ball to a 19yo rookie.

He was also banging on about it throughout the Leadership outbound training. Gould’s excessive praise of Galvin also serves to rattle Benji.
We should have got home against the knights. 😡

 

[Jolls]

Nope, but I didn’t expect Benji to instruct Luai to relinquish valuable red zone ball to a 19yo rookie.

What evidence do you have that Benji has instructed Luai to do that? I don't have any evidence to the contrary. However, the reality is we have a 21 game 19 year old junior and a 4 time premiership winning veteran of the game. There is no way in hell any coach, even a rookie, is going to prioritise ball to Galvin over Luai.

The kid overplayed the first trial, corrected in the second and has gone back to trying to do too much. It was as obvious on Friday as it was in trial one.

Luai will be aware of it and Galvin will be recalibrated.

But can you tell the difference ?
