They made the offer, him walking was a choice he made all by himself, he's a big boy.

So what you're saying is that it was OK for them to make an offer to a contracted head coach but it was all on him because he took up that offer. I'm not saying Ivan was an innocent bystander. He was a conniving piece of dog shite that took the silver on offer. But Penrith really should have been hauled over the coals by the NRL for inducing him to leave.

My partner just asked me a question, and we would like answers.

Here is the question.

If in this comp whilst he is playing for Penrith he gets a very serious injury, that might endanger the rest of his playing career,
What recourse might our club have. ????

It would have to be null and void I reckon. He has to fulfil his side of the agreement too. I am not a lawyer but being a member of the tigers I get regular emails offering assistance from Brydens, maybe their head honcho could assist? 🤷‍♂️
They take out insurance on all these kind of things these days too I believe.

The Contract would be frustrated, which in effect means its null and void and cant be enforced. Either side of a Contract has to receive consideration...Luai recieves $1.2M pa as consideration and in return Tigers receive him training and performing at NRL standard. If either side cant provide their side of the Consideration under the Contract. it is not a breach of Contract but the Contract is frustrated and both sides are released from the Contract.

TLDR....If Laui receives a career ending injury before 1/11/2024 it’s no skin off our back other than we are short an elite level halfback. No cost , no hit to the cap.

Firstly, a very valid question and good response,
But what if he brings a lingering injury with him. Do we have an escape clause ( assuming we do) but just asking ?

Agree totally that the Panthers should have had the book thrown at them, I'd go so far as to believe had it been a more influential club e.g Roosters or Broncos, the N.R.L would have.
In saying that though all the offers in the world mean nothing if Ivan refuses. He has a mind of his own and iv no doubt he was working behind the scenes with the Panthers to orchestrate it all. But if he refuses the offer, the offer is useless. Imo all the fault lies with him, we've all seen in the past few years that the contracts mean nothing. It's up to the individual to honour it. Like Luai if we now entice him to leave a year early and he does, it's on him. He chooses to leave, he has the option to stay and see it out.

I cannot understand the problem with the club photo shopping Luai in a tiger's jersey to announce the signing.
What a crock a Sh#t as it's within the rules and if another club brought a player for 25 from us and did this I wouldn't have any concerns.
It's not like they are putting billboards up and using it in Ads for marketing.

It's time some people lighten up in this world.

I don't like it myself and don't think it's got anything to do with.peoe.lightening up.
Some feel strong about it and just because you don't doesn't mean they're uptight or wound up about it, they just feel strongly about it as no doubt youd feel strong about certain issues that others may not.

I reckon it also prevents clubs from overstepping the mark as certain clubs would have no dramas doing... With the advent of AI all sorts of scenarios could come.into calculation... Clubs using the new recruit for their own gain and at the incumbent clubs loss for a year or so... Could start to get out of hand
Just a bad look especially for kids too who don't understand it all really well
Big No for me
