He gets them the best deals

Anyone who wasn’t on Benjis bus went out the door. Our results show.

I reckon with png and Perth coming in, you will pay “overs” for any solid player. You might get lucky with a players first contract where you get higher than expected output. Any player performing well will have multiple clubs chasing them. Broncs, Dogs, Roosters will continue to be a little...

They’ll need a pope mobile

Are the home games being played in png? What if an away player gets injured over there. (Genuine questions)

don’t disagree. Personally that’s when you’re best off going. They do travel abroad every second game? Could be a great lifestyle on the road with no responsibility bar yourself and your team mates. The rest of the time they could be in their rooms doing podcasts and gaming.

And the good kids can get paid electively the same as a top line, experienced player for png ressies.

What does that even mean 🤣

This was such a great presser. Well done benji and wests tigers.

I was under the impression they had exemptions to this rule?

Where have you heard he doesn’t want to be here? He is contracted until end of 2027. If you push him out half the team will agitate.

Fair enough. Luai is fairly close to home though.

Im not buying that argument. It’s not about being on struggle street. It’s about earning 1.2 plus endorsements in the hand vs approx 600k. It’s a no brainer to me.

Yep but what worries me is what Riccio said on nrl360. PNG have said to luia, “here’s the chance to build your team.” First on the list will be players he is close to. Coming off contract at the same time is not a coincidence.

He’s part of the change in culture and standards

That’s your perspective. Being an elite athlete is shit regardless to many. The trainings The rehab. The diets. The discipline. Money to set you up for life. For generations. If they have the right advice, money IS everything in their early 20s.

In png 🤣

Interesting in here. He can’t agitate to leave early. He will give 100% whilst here.

It certainly does. And as it’s been mentioned a few times, we can be successful without him and I bare no grudges and thats great for him. Hypothetically we are in trouble if 3-4 players go with him +Bula (Perth or dogs). They could just as easy all turn around and sign for unders long term...

These players are key
