OFFICIAL Jarome Luai - #295

I don’t have the same hatred for Luai as a lot of others. Came to the wooden spooners prove himself when guys like Cooper Cronk would never consider challenging himself at a lower club.

He wasn’t able to be Batman, but he gave it a crack. Today showed we don’t need him and by leaving we are saved from a salary cap mess.

I’m glad he’s leaving but no hard feelings from me.

One cannot help but wonder how true the rumours of Richardson being at the point of having those clauses removed were. Then HBG got upset about a predominantly orange jersey and pretended otherwise to remove him and board members.

Injuries aside, the team was humming along in second place with a 5-2 win record when Luai was allowed to visit and then sign with PNG. The replacement CEO has since stated that the signing was the reason that our season fell apart.

Worse still, WT will be paying him another half a million or so to play elsewhere in 27.

Haha I just posted the same thing in the coach benji thread 😂😂

He was here less than 12 months and the club self imploded. Really cant blame him for taking a better option.

His two year tenure will be another unfortunate chapter in the clubs history…

I’ll say though that a lot of people defended his form until he decided to pull the pin…he was always the same player here over the two years …one good game out of 8,,,

Agreed.
Some people saw it from that first game v Newcastle in 25 but most didn’t until he went to PNG.
He had a lot of people inside this club and out completely fooled.

Obviously, I agree on that, as it all starts at the top.

Whilst likely due to their legal agreements we will never truly know, I think it fair to say that WT would probably be playing finals next weekend had the disasterous HBG actions not occurred and pretty well everyone here being a lot less worried about paying Luai too much. Even the plentiful amount that never liked him for whatever reason.

I am still [This word has been automatically removed]ing dirty on those bastards for ruining our off-season and likely our raging 2026 finals dreams, now for the 15th year in a row.

Yeah I remember thinking in the first half of season 2025 when was the magic was going to happen. There were glimpses but I don’t think we ever got what was on the label.
