It's time to take the fight back to HBG

Sacking Scott Fulton, giving Benji full control and hanging your hat on a two faced Luai were all bad decisions., no matter what type of spin anyone wants to put on it.

If you really want to dive into why Luai became available for PNG, it comes down to HBG and their selfishness in pursuit of control.

Richo and Benji had Luai lined up to remove his exit clauses at the end of 2025. Had those clauses been removed, PNG couldn't have made an offer, Luai stays, and we’re likely pushing for a finals spot in 2026.

So why didn't he remove them? Simple: less than 12 months into his contract, HBG blew the club apart and pushed the CEO out.

In hindsight, Luai was completely justified in keeping those clauses in his contract. That isn't selling out on the club, that's smart, because it's only a matter of time before they stuff something else up.

I have thought that the whole Luai leaving the Tigers saga was not always a foregone conclusion

I think its fair to say the instability at the board room level (HBG blowing up the tigers board) would have played into his decision to leave the club, however I do not believe that he always intended to leave 2 years in to his 5 year deal...

Also it was right around the time that he left for PNG to check out the facilities, then signed, that 2026 started derailing for the Tigers..

I believe things could have certainly played out differently.. The direction of a club or any organisation really - is set by those who hold the power, and its well known who that is when it comes to Wests Tigers
