Greetings all! I'm new to this site and this is my 1st post. Love him or hate him, Jarome Luai's combination with Mitch Moses for NSW was electric. Imagine those two being our halves combination.

First, his asking price. Could we get him for a price we'd be happy with and allow us to build a squad and retain players we need to.
Second is whether he fits the culture Ryles is trying to build. Ryles is setting the expectation you play for the badge. If you don't, you're out the door.
Third is how he would work with Moses. We saw the pair perform well in Origin last year. But 2 games is a lot different to the week-to-week grind of NRL. Luai has previously stated he wants to be the man and that's why he left Penrith. I don't think he'd want to be second fiddle to Moses until Mitch retires.
I just don't think Luai is the type of player we'd be going after. I'd be hesitant to go after a guy who ditches a club barely a year after signing with them.
Imagine how much MON would throw at Luai if he was willing to throw half a mil at Blaise T , the best part of a mil at Galvin and threw 650k plus at Silva .
Luai will be the games first 2 mil a year signing.
Man most of you fans are so clueless, Luai's hunger to win and paired with moses will make us a champion side. Saying no to a 4x winner is a joke most of us fans are jokes and clueless. He is the player ryles will want on our side, when the going gets tough he stands up.
Not a bad Idea. But the bucks to get him to Parra still be about what tigers are offering 1.5 is a whack on the salary cap...could cook our cap distribution but have a lower amount crack we have the money very unlikely but who knows ...

There are a couple things to consider.

Yes for the right sum
Cmon Frankie Luai's agent pulls MoNs pants down everyday of the week.He's not taking less to come here.

Knowing MON, he'd probably try and sign the clubs license over to Luai to get him to sign
NO

He's the best 5/8 in the game but will come at a hearty price, can't see it happening anyway
Something tells me you know something about this.
