OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

[Demps]

I won’t name them, but there is a couple of others that we are no chance of getting value for money out of anytime soon.

I think I know who you're talking about and no, they just re-signed.

 

[Vicious]

No one is taking 1.2 if we want to offload him. We are going to pay at least 600k minimum

So in other words we bought a dud that is only worth 600k and we are paying him double?
Geez we are good at that.
Definitely HBG’s fault.

In retrospect, that post probably was aimed at the club now. It would sting the ego to be told you aren’t needed if you can find somewhere else.

If you are earning 1.2 million per year, you would just brush off any criticism that comes your way and get on with it.
He cannot help himself, maybe we need a culture re-think.

He’s only got himself to blame

I'm really worried we're back to overpaying players. The way we rushed all those signings makes me think they've stuffed our cap.

In retrospect Benji, richo and Pascoe royally messed up with his contract value

What’s PNG paying him ?

Same I’m really worried turuva, Bula, and makasini are going to be grossly overpaid

Way too much

 

[TigerNeddyK]

I actually find it very embarrassing...

All that culture talk aside, he achieved nothing at the Tigers... and now he's being asked to leave.

His arrogance may have caused this.
Keen to hear more around this story.

Come on mate.. he is by far the best defender in the backs .. he is easily our most classy player and is very respected bwothin the playing group. This is a deadset embarrassing situation as we say one thing and do another .. having jarome at the club for another year is vital and we will regret it forever if we attempt to show him the door. If this was done without Benji input by HBG or some bean counter then I am just so over these idiots being involved with the footy team .. the Koe and Magpies playing at lidcombe and not bofere our nrl team and the division through the pathways is bad enough .. so over the lack of vision and loyalty and leadership

 

[TigerBurnsy]

What’s PNG paying him ?

Effectively 600k as they have double the cap

 

[innsaneink]

I dont really understand what he.posted...

'I told.them'...is that it?

Please.help this old fart.make sense.of it all...context.

Told who.what

Maybe. But it’s another black eye for the club. Another year of a marquee player walking out early. The club has to bear some responsibility.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Way too much

What he has earnt mate .. what he is worth , ..

The cap is about to go up significantly 😂

If they are already overpaying players we got massive problems …

Multi-premiership winning player.

He just, wasn't/isnt as good, outside that system as we thought.
Much like Adam Blair.

It has turned out to be a very mediocre signing and it seems, it's for the best, he leaves now, as he's leaving in 2028 anyways.

I think if his PNG campaign goes the same way his Tigers one has, it'll be quite clear what kind of player he is.

 

[Tom Shines]

Way too much

That’s the market though

He wouldn’t have come here otherwise. He’d be at the Dogs, probably killing it and we’d be cursing them for low balling him.
