Im prepared to pay full freight just to get rid of him. We are getting no value out of him, in fact I would say he is having a huge negative effect of the team. So better off without him no matter what it costs

He does nothing and today even ripped Makasini for something that wasn’t his fault,
The sooner he exits the better.
Terrell shouldn’t be playing 80mins and he’s a 700k prop, but I’ve got a feeling we are paying him closer to 1 million per season.
Turuva is a 350k player at best, I’ve got a feeling we are paying him closer to 500k.
It’s a much too familiar story, we win a few games and our players think they are superstars and demand massive overs for us to keep them.

I went back and looked at the 4th tackle 6 again call on the first set. Plain and simple it wasn’t an infringement. The boys made a tackle. They got up quickly. Yeo played the ball quickly. Just a made up call by Atkins because he felt like it.

Gee, I wondered how we lost that game ! Thanks for clearing it up.
Now was it Atkins pass that made Pole drop a sitter, was it Atkins or Luai who gave that lovely intercept pass to T’oo, or was it Atkins that made Turuva throw that stupid forward pass. , ++++
You’re probably right mate but there were much bigger issues today than maybe one wrong call.
Let’s move forward eh !

I have been very vocal about how important i believe it is to get rid this guy asap. Let me make it very clear, I dont blame Luai for today at all. We handed the game to the best team of the last decade with incredibly bad mistakes by Api, Murray and Turuva. Along with the standard Grant Atkins 6 again in our first set to give Penrith the keg uo they needed. We actually defended fantastic that initial period.

In my opinion, its is unmanageable to have your captain actively employed to recruit for another club. Laui claims he is a man of honour, but allowing this to happen shows no honour at all. If he had any integrity he would look for a 12 month gig in Suoer League or over with the Bears to help them for a year. What he is doing is way worse than what Galvin did and I cant support this guy at all playing for us.

How is he actively recruiting for the chiefs?

I say it before the start of the game even .. watch this , 4th tackle they will get a set restart and every damn time it happens .. it was not necessary , it was for nothing , he just gave them the damn ball for 18 tackles straight to start the damn game ..

Nobody is saying that we lost because of the ref , but 2 things can be true at the. Same time, last week the dogs got 7 6 agains to our 0 and this week that dog of a ref atkins gave them a restart when absolutely NOTHING happened in the ruck , nothing ,, Penrith were a class above but should still be referees to the same standard as us .. so many other fans see it as well , the Titans also get dog calls , I don’t support them but I can still se that they get rorted by the refs week in week out .. it. Is a blight on the game

What is a blight on the game is fans who don’t understand that a poor decision does not automatically equal points.
Last week we showed it doesn’t matter if you are determined to overcome them.
Penrith had 2…2 set restarts in that first half. In no way were we being victimised by the referees.

You do realise that some fans discussing some points of the game on a fan forum does not actually influence the way the team plays ?? Tuck , you do get that ? Us posters are not on the coaching staff ? That we can say “ hey that decision was crap” and it can be crap and we can think that without us in any way thinking that it cost us the game or that we shouldn’t be able to still defend it or that we want to overcome it but still the decision was wrong ? You know , like you didn’t think Ponga should have been sent off ?? You thought that was wrong and it cost qld the game or did you police social
Media in general telling every poster that didn’t like it that it didn’t Cost QLD the game and qld should just be more resilient ? Difference is to me that the Tigers were terrible , have some serious problems to fix, were beaten by a much better team but still copped terrible decisions like Alamotti changing his line and shoulder charging Makasini off
The ball and nobody said a damn thing about it .. it did not affect the result in my opinion but gotdamn if that happed to
Reese Walsh or Cleary the refs would have seen it and penalised the escort penalty ..and even if it is some coincidence that somehow seems to happen to the Tigers and the titans a lot more often than some other teams then us posting it on here really does not make the team softer just by our posting about it

And please don’t tell me May should be in SOO, his effort today was very mediocre.
Anyway, winning starts on Monday so back to work on the morning, video and recovery, sees who’s available for next week, and work on a plan to stifle the GC halves !
Come on Leichhardt !!!

I am absolutely certain we shit our pants when Luai left and upgraded everyone on huge contracts, and that’s why they all suddenly signed up so fast
 
What does Luai do to him a marquee player except being paid about 10 times his true value ?
Blaze Talagi is no superstar, but looks pretty good playing alongside Nathan Cleary, Dylan Edwards and Isaiah Yeo.
Luke Brooks would have 4 premiership rings by now if he was lucky enough to play 5/8 for the Panthers over the same period that Luai played for them.

Mate, I hear ya and understand what you’re saying but unfortunately that’s the system we’ve got and no matter how much coaches, players and fans complain it will continue to happen to those perceived lesser clubs. I have noted 2 things this year, 1) when we won a few we seemed to be getting a lot friendlier calls, and 2) Ciraldo was still blaming the refs even after getting those multiple 6 again last week.
My take, win more and work your way up the ladder and things ( should) get a little friendlier. Lose more and the ref is a major part of the discussion.
The answers a pineapple TNK. Maybe as I get much older I have put away my ref angry approach and just gone with the flow. But believe there was a time when I was searching for the refs car in the LO carpark and was thinking of torching it ( only kidding) so I get where you’re coming from.
