OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

[tig_prmz]

He came to us as wooden sooners and we won't be that at the end of it.

I'm ok with his time here.

We've got a few assets like Mays, Fainus. Bula etc to sign with us. Maybe he helped, maybe he didn't. Who knows, but thanks JL, won't be hating on you like i have hated others.

‘The Tigers had reservations about Luai’s third party commitments with PNG-based companies despite being contracted to the club next season’ daily telegraph.

“It’s a cloud that would’ve likely hung over Jarome’s head,” Mielekamp said.

Danny weidler on Triple M also spoke about these 3rd party deals and he needed to start servicing next year which Tigers not happy about.

Yeah that’s not cool

Latu Fainu needs the 7 jersey and the green light to call the shots for the rest of the season. AD to centre. The future is now. We won’t do great things until he gets some proper reps in FG so patience will be needed.

 

[Leck]

I don’t see him leaving as a bad thing at all. However, we seem to be in a loop of making one player the scapegoat, and once they are gone, watch out. Brooks, Galvin and now Luai. Groundhog Day.

Luke was with us for 10 years, however he was poorly coached and managed. He’s now finally found some better form at Manly under Foran.

Galvin and his family are banking on his potential at the Dogs, while Luai wants to go straight to the bank and cash his cheques in with the Chiefs.

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?

True. The WTs being astute in wanting him to depart and use the $ elsewhere. One can only speculate as to how much pressure there is now on Perth and PNG to sign players.

I have no problem with a man wanting to create a future for his family.

What I don't like is a liar.

Parra losing Volkman to sign Luai for 1 year, we're not the only basketcase

I’d be frothing at Luai and Moses halves if I was a Parra fan. He might not do much here but don’t forget Penrith and previous origin form with Moses

Add TDS, Smith, Iongi,etc they look good

Hard pass on Mitchell. You never date a girlfriend you've already broken up with.

Ennis is a very average analyst. Everyone used to give Buzz a hard time, but he had incredible footy relationships and an impressive hit rate when it came to breaking stories.

Great way to finish the week, and an excellent decision to punt him.

Jarome has proven to be an actor who can't play the lead role or stay true to his word.

He's been more interested in promotional deals than playing good footy.

Well you don’t think Ivan let him go thinking he had any good football left in him !

I bet they are both excited by it too.

😂..Wow ..from 5 years, for life, to 3 years down to 2 ...🤪

 

[HUNT 101]

He might be heading back to Penrith on a lighter pay pack , we'll chip in a small amount for 1 year and then he sets off to the Chiefs.

Was also having a laugh immediately after the siren.

Also doesn’t mind giving it…
If you’re tough enough to tell the fans to STFU because you’ve had a good game…
Surely you’re tough enough for the rest of it?

I actually hope that he goes to the Bears next year before he pushes on to the supposed PNG paradise.

While I was in my first year at uni, I lived in Cammeray and went to a few Bears games at North Sydney oval. I remember Taylor still playing and the Bears pulling our pants down that day.

I’m pretty sure they won by more than 50 points because my girlfriend and I left early and went to Percy’s for a conciliatory beverage.

While that experience wasn’t great, I’m really happy that the Bears are back.

Real good…
How’s their back row, centre, winger stocks looking?

For/against Luai leaving B, thought it was good as soon as I heard.

 

[Leck]

I’m making a big call - Jarome Luai will be going to Perth next year, not Parra.

There are deals being done behind the door and the Tigers will be compensated.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Fox sports saying we're chipping in up to half, bloody hell thought $400 was fair $600 is stretching the friendship. Great work Richo i hope you didnt structure other contracts similarly.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Really , he hasn’t been in government housing for bloody years

Yeh mate, since he was a child like the poster said
