Wests Tigers Sign Luciano Leilua till 2022

[Spud_Murphy]

Love all the enthusiasm and positivism this signing has bought..

Oh....happy's still asleep..

Yes this thread is so much nicer to be on than some previous ones. I actually don't feel like strangling anyone! Think I might stay here a while 😊

I hope he kills it here, but at this stage we have signed a fringe first grader on near enough to rep money.

If he is awful we are stuck paying for him for 3 years. If he is great, he can complain and ask for a release at the end of next year and see what happens from there.

Looks good already

I know some on here bag him, but I honestly wouldn't mind if his brother cam across also. He might do some dumb things sometimes, but my God he can be a damaging runner out wide. It might give the brothers a big kick of enthusiasm to actually play together in the same team. Don't know if Joey is looking elsewhere, but with the Raiders signing Scott maybe he is being pushed out? Can't see Croker going anywhere else.

Canberra will crank up a multimillion-dollar retention drive with Jack Wighton and Jarrod Croker first cabs off the rank from their grand final back line.

The Raiders have the bulk of their pack tied up long term but outside backs Croker, Nick Cotric and Joey Leilua all come off contract in 2020 and are able to field offers from NRL rivals.

i don't know why some people are saying he needs to get fitter and/or lose weight. his size is a weapon and he's played long minutes with the Dragons already

Body image rules everywhere these days... If he don't look cut like sonny bill He must be no good..

Good to have a ball player... He agreed to terms a. Long time back obviously waiting on merrin etc

Leilua’s agent Mario Tartak confirmed Leilua, a local junior, did not want to leave the Dragons but was pretty much shown the door to help accommodate Merrin’s return.


The early stories were he wanted out and to get fit under Madge? Now his agent is saying he never wanted to leave?

Different story to what their GM has said today.

"Luciano indicated he wouldn't be renewing his contract with the Dragons beyond the 2020 season.

Hopefully they take the same attitude with Lomax if he signs with us from 2021 🙂

Mate he doesnt want to play for us, is it that hard to understand?

Door is always half open though.

The glass is half full.
