Jarome Luai

[WestsEffTheRest]

I'm not getting worked up about getting Luai. If we get him great but he'll cost huge dollars and that is risky.

I hate these articles that come out though. It turns it into a circus.

All the other top halves are currently tied down long term. Luai is a 3x premiership winning half if we have to pay overs then so be it. I think Wests problem at the moment is actually trying to spend our cap.

better player than Moses, well worth the dollars
hope we get him

Hell, we were reportedly paying that for an unproven brooks for years… why the hell not? It’s only money. And not mine… bring him here.

Speaking of, has anyone heard of what happened to the Dragons Offical Offer to Manu? Someone mentioned he has to either accept or decline it as it is holding up the Dragon’s ability to use that funding on a different player.

I think they turned their attention to AFB and Deardon.

Maybe not, but he wouldn’t be in that system if he couldn’t play.

Something that I’m sure has been considered but not mentioned is not just Api’s relationship with Luai but perhaps Api’s game style suited Luai more. A heap more ball went left in recent years to 23: granted some of that might be due to no Kikau but it also could come down to how Luai likes to receive the ball from dummy half.

Good point N

3x Premierships, Origin Rep and leading Samoa to a RLWC final is a safe resume.
He has nothing left to prove at Penrith. Take the money, support your family.
If he somehow manages to get the Tigers into the finals, he'd be the all-time GOAT (definitely not biased)
I see all the "experts" saying stay with a proven outfit, unlikely win a premiership elsewhere blah blah. What more does this guy have to achieve lol ? I'd 100% be taking the money at this point.

Couple years for a genuine crack with us.

Olam just doesn't excite me.
Not even really for this year, even if he's the best version of himself I don't know that he really moves the needle for us.
We lacked creation and danger out wide last year, Olam really doesn't offer that.
I don't know that he's cooked per say, he just don't offer heaps ball in hand apart from running straight and hard.

Was told today that Spencer Leniu had agreed to join the dogs from 2024 and at the last minute uncle Nick came in with a massive offer to get him to the Roosters and because of that the dogs have alot of free cash available and have made a very good offer to Luai and is a good chance to go there also Kikau is a good chance to be traded to Warriors for Fonua Blake

Generally I wouldn’t be surprised, we’re usually the brides made. But in this case the Benji, Api and Luai connection is legit.

His Dogs connections are just as strong.

I guess we’ll see.

They've also signed 8 players since then...

We had cash for Moses, and signed Sullivan, Seze and Fainu. Do we still have a million left in our kitty?

 

[Telltails]

Bulldogs must be a massive chance if they have a serious offer. Gould has a way of getting what he wants. A real test for Benji - could be a defining moment but it's hard to believe.

How the bulldogs could sign Luai with the players they signed is beyond me. Not for the money he’d want.

FOnua blake is twice the player Kikau is. Kikau is a dry track bully on that edge.

The example of "aggressive recruitment" for sure.

No way especially since they have no props. Theyd make 30m a set and have to kick haha.

They still need to have the money in the salary cap.
