Hes the type of player we should be signing, who ever is in charge needs to explain what the hell is are end game , our squad is no better than last year and will more than likely give us another spoon

My reputation will be in tatters if that’s the case 🤡

I stick by what I’ve heard

Who knows? Luai probably does I guess

Feels like the Penrith notional increase leak is pushing this to a quick conclusion so hopefully we know soon

Luai signing with a management team doesn't necessarily mean he wants to leave. He's just trying to make the most of his "brand". Contract negotiation comes into the deal once every 3 or 4 years. It's the ongoing value that a good agent can add that sets a player up. Luai would be looking to cash in on his popularity with his fanbase, his Samoan heritage, his singing.... life after footy. He's a personable sort of bloke and if he finishes his career with 4 or 5 premierships, a few SOO and international appearances, he'd have a few things lined up once he's done. A legacy is a valuable thing, I don't think he'll leave Penrith.

Josh Curran signs with the Bulldogs

Curran is a highly rated well deserved player that performs to a standard, then to join a club that performs way below his normal standard. We'll see how long he lasts before he wants out.
 
The Newcastle Knights have joined the hunt for Josh Addo-Carr following revelations the Bulldogs winger has caught the eye of Parramatta.

Newcastle have also expressed interest in the NSW and Australia representative as a replacement for the Sydney Roosters-bound Dominic Young. Wests Tigers and the Dragons are also monitoring the situation closely.

The prospect of a swap of Eels forward Ryan Matterson for Addo-Carr was floated, but is unlikely to eventuate. Canterbury haven’t ruled out a player exchange, but their focus is on signing a front-rower rather than a back-rower. Parramatta would have to release a player to make the deal happen.

The Bulldogs have previously shown interest in the Saifiti brothers, but Newcastle won’t entertain a swap deal for either of their middle enforcers.

Daniel Saifiti is contracted until the end of 2026 on a deal worth about $900,000 a season. Jacob, who is in the Maldives on his honeymoon, is due to become a free agent on November 1, but is mulling over a lucrative contract extension on the table at the Knights. (DT)
