OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

Didn't he say he wanted to retire here or stay for 10 yrs something ridiculous like that?

The bloke jumped ship at the first opportunity, im not stupid i know why he has but still when you make statements such as those and do the complete opposite its a bit hard to swallow.
He hasn't exactly set the field alight for us hasnt been bad either, certainly not the Batman he makes himself out to be on the field anyways.

This is good news, it's a win win for the Tigers.

If he's playing good next year we'll probably be in the eight and have lots of cash, have the culture issue sorted so in turn players will want to come.

If he's playing crap and we don't make the eight, then all the best.......thanks for the 1.2M

Happy with the outcome.

Well I think we get the best of him,so definitely could be worse.
Now Benji needs to say, we looked after you, your turn to lead us to the finals !

I wish I was born into following a club like the Broncos.

Ill say it for the 100th time. This doesnt happen if richo is still here.

HBG are [This word has been automatically removed]ing useless, along with their possie of supporters on here. Good for nothing .

Mate I hate HBG just as much as you do but Luai hasn’t been exactly forthcoming about removing the clauses himself. He could’ve done it all last year but he didn’t. At the end of the day his management team would’ve known expansion teams are coming and would’ve told him to hold off.
 
Give HBG what they want. Bring back the Magpies.

They can play in reserve grade, the NRL licence can be sold to someone competent & we can stop playing in the mirage that we are anything more than a feeder side for big clubs.

We played better without him. Jeez NRL contracts are garbage in that we will be paying 1.2m for someone in self protection mode.

We should be able to cut him at end of season & he can live on scraps for a year.

Garbage contract Richo signed. Where are all the clowns that were wanting pats on the back for the 18 month commitment they got

Mate he was planning on removing them. It was a negotiation taking place witb Richo.

I have it on good accord Jarome then met with HBG himself and decided not to remove the clauses.

Make of that what you will.

I dont begrudge him leaving.
But we could of held onto him for 2028 and I am pissed off because this has bigger implications on the rest of the team --- watch them follow

Maybe some, but not all. I’d say Turuva, possibly Bula, maybe the Mays brothers and T’oo for sure. I’m still not ruling out Cleary either !

Whilst I have said I am not too fussed with him moving on in 2028, what does concern me is if it was our favourite debenture holders and their incompetence that has pushed him out the door. If it is them than I don't like our chances of retaining too many of our favourite players after 2028.

Let’s see man I think we can use Luais money to tie down other core members of the side. From a footy perspective I think this works out best for both parties.

Cannot begrudge him one helluva huge final payday

If it was me in his shoes I wouldnt be thinking too long about it either

Wait till he takes his mates & we don’t have a side. No Fainu’s no May’s.

Seyfarth captain & first picked.
