OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

You could argue similar for most TPAs. I am certainly not being offered any as I am not a known NRL player.

You're right. But is Vodafone Fiji hitting up a Melbourne storm player?

Is Chevrolet asking Adam Doueihi to be an ambassador?

It's not questionable in a Rugby League stronghold like Sydney or Brisbane for players to attract TPAs. The game is established here and has been for a century and third parties want to be involved.

Think Luai is having a solid game , good in defence and attack kicking ok

Was that his last game for the Tigers?

Thanks for the memories.

I used to like Coke as a youngster but converted to Pepsi Max. Cheaper to buy in a 30 pack than Coke.

Of course it’s cheaper - it’s a by far inferior product…

E10 is cheaper that Premium unleaded as well - go figure…

Man I have backed this guy for his effort plays but he was checked out tonight.

I know he set up both our tries, but it wasn't just the missed tackles, he didn't get off his edge other than the first try. He just stood there the whole time. Didn't double defend like you're supposed to at 3rd in. Horrible effort plays from him last 3 weeks.

Find the jerome backers strange

Praise the lord. He will be added to the list of worst signings for the Tigers. Money for value automatically puts him as the worst Tigers signing ever.

Jerry Luai, Josh Reynolds, Russell Packer, Adam Blair, Moses Mbye, Matt Ballin, Braith Anasta, Chris McQueen, BJ Leilua, John Morris, Sam Harris, Nick Graham, Ryan O’Hara, Jason Cayless, James Roberts, Oliver Gildart.

Thanks for the memories.

Hope you can contain your emotions next week when he does the lap of the ground after the game

I understand this. Are you saying that Luai would have had the Pepsi PNG TPA if he hadn't have signed with them?

No. But the PNG club themselves (assuming it's all above board) had nothing to do with arranging the TPA.

Just about every TPA who the player plays for would play a role. It only makes sense that a business would approach someone from a club that represents the area the business operates in.

Moses reportedly had an agreement with Parra BMW, would he have that without specifically playing for Parra.

I also heard a report from a clothing brand launching in Australia and NZ were specifically targeting kiwi Storm players. Kiwi because they were launching in NZ, NRL players because they are recognisable in NSW and Qld and Storm players to help with a Vic presence. So in this scenario the fact they play for Storm is one of the specific reasons the company targeted them.

So long as the club doesn't source the TPAs then it is fine. That doesn't mean who the player plays for isn't considered in the arrangement.
