OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

[mtd#2]

I've heard the contract for 2027 is going to be cancelled. But we are paying luai $300k to break the contract he already signed. That makes Luai a free agent. If true it means we aren't paying any club to take him

 

[mtd#2]

Haha...it was only 2 or 300 last night

What a joke

Fox don't seem to have a clue mate

And that's more than fair Luai is going to lose $$$

That's are generous move by Luai if correct - and is our best interest more than his. Nothing mercenary there.

I am led to believe he genuinely wants the best for the club and juniors like Latu coming through.. so he was willing to take the $300k as a severance.. and backs himself to make up the rest

This would be great … maybe he wants a year off before going to PNG…plenty of time to concentrate on his TPAs in the meantime

 

[Speed2burn]

I’m making a big call - Jarome Luai will be going to Perth next year, not Parra.

There are deals being done behind the door and the Tigers will be compensated.

Might have legs, apparently Jamie Humphreys has backflipped on Perth

 

[Tom Shines]

We got a few competing rumours going boys 😂

Plus his third party deals from PNG?

 

[hank37w]

Yeah No way, unless your desperate,and Yeah a club with a polished spine snap him up , make him look better then he is and then everyone on here blame Benji for being a shit coach and not getting the best out of him etc etc . I've seen this movie before.

I'm sick of the constant re-runs. 🤣

Wonder how much his TPAs from PNG were set to earn him next year?

 

[Demps]

Luai is a clown.
Unbelievable how he's carried himself tbf.

I hope PNG win nothing, with him, leading the show. Sideways.

Voss just stated ,Luai has walked away ,if that counts as anything/rumour confirmed?

I'm pretty sure you can't do that. I assume we are putting $300k on this year's salary to free up 1.2 for next year.

That $300k has to come out of our salary cap, this year or next.

How does that work from a cap perspective? If we have $900K back on the cap for 2027 that’s a brilliant outcome. I’d have thought we’d have to wear some money from the breaking contract in the cap….

they won’t go far if he’s their chief play maker, as we say here he’s mostly a ghost without a dominant player doing most of the work

Maybe the money we were freeing up with laulili etc is for Jerome to be paid on this years cap
