OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

Iam beginning to believe that luai really only came here for the money and he knew that PNG was around the corner that’s why he had the claus put in his contract. He really needs to step up over the rest of the season then he can piss off
Luai is a very astute businessman. The big dollars rule his business decisions.
He knows his football ability is less than the dollars on offer.
Who can't see that?
 
He better go in dressed like a hockey goal tender if we lose, cos he’ll cop a barrage. Speaking of which, what are the chances Luai rocks up to the presser with Api not playing?
Wouldn't surprise me if Luai did,just to put them all in their place and hose down the nonsense ,after all he's not shy of the camera

I don't know if that's true but his children hood was spent in government housing and I don't blame him for chasing the money to help his family as long as he puts in for the Tiger's

All his family gets handouts from Jerome
 
Yeah, good onya Benji.

If Luai was playing like he is expected to, he may have kept him but he's not and never has really, so it's see you later, Tigers first.
 
He could’ve taken the easy route and didn’t.

Critical of Benji a fair bit this season but this was a good tough leadership call that needed to happen.

It’s clear our spine isn’t working effectively and when your $1.2m highest player and captain isn’t winning you games something needs to change.
Well said Mighty_Tiger
This is “ Moneyball” working, it had to happen, and we need to get other players signed/re-signed particularly up front with our forward pack. You only need to look at game 3 in Origin with Martin playing again , what a difference this made!!
 
What gets me is in the real world when you sign up for another company you get a DCM from your current job immediately. I guess Marshall isn't as bad a coach as I thought although the jury will be out for that while us peons suffer in the meantime.
 
V’landys and Co need to have a good look at themselves!! Allowing players to sign with other clubs and new clubs coming in to the comp mid-season is a distraction/disruption we don’t need in the game! I’m 💯 over this rubbish!! I just want to watch my team!!!🐯🤕
This needs to change yesterday, not happy Jan !!😞

Really , he hasn’t been in government housing for bloody years
 
I could have handled another year with Luai if he was consistent in meeting playing performance for the money we were paying him, but in reality it was only late 2025 and some early examples in 2026 that we saw glimpses of his Penrith form and this certainly dropped off more since the PNG signing with one exception . Given that his motor took a year to start performing for us, it is a very optimistic for any club that takes him on to expect this will change with their signing. If it does then what does it say about Benjis coaching
 
More like Joey John's according to some. AD might be a lovely guy but he ain't a half.
Its a sad indictment of the clubs situation that AD should be anywhere near a half in a pro league club but like it or not he is the only player in the squad with an IQ over 75 so he looks like Andrew Johns out there among players that wear head gear off the field.

He could find form if he lands at Parra as is speculated, Moses is a quality all round 7, a good pairing, something the Tigers couldn't provide with Doueihi being more of a running half.
