If you've kept up to date recently with the drama at the Wests Tigers, you'd know that the club is in complete turmoil, tearing itself apart from within. Board members being sacked , the CEO being investigated for family contracts, possibly gone by weekends end. Good Players have been leaving, think Galvin, Papalii, Da Silva, which brings me to Luai.
The NSW rep has more get out clauses from his 5 year, 6million dollar contract. Its being reported by Fox, Code sports and Luai himself that he has get out clauses throughout his 5 year Tigers deal. Luai is being quoted by Fox as saying "that's why I have get out clauses" The obvious question raises itself is Luai someone that the Eels could target for 2027, when Pezet leaves for the Broncos.
The pairing of Luai and Moses at state level worked a treat, imagine that partnership at club level. Not sure we have that type of coin, but then again maybe we do have close to it.
What are peoples thoughts, is this something powerbrokers may look at or will Joash or another junior be the clubs answer.

Though still we went hard for Galvin despite having Fletcher and Lorenzo.
Exactly , LB. But don't ruin their fantasy mate, we were going to bench Galvin next year when these future immortals were ready.
Yes, we went hard for Galvin. Yes, if Ryles sees someone as the answer, he might go for it. Yes, Wiz's "bench fantasy" is a scene out of a LaLaLand movie.
But again, Luai & Galvin aren't the same, right? A $1.1-1.5m six with POs? Mmm. Would you? If we could rort the cap, the easy way out, like some with sugar daddies and no POs, maybe. The ultimate fan aphrodisiac lol.
I suppose with Galvin, he thought it was an opportunity too good to pass up. The notion of bringing back home a junior would have added some fuzzy good feelings as well. I'm sure if he passed on Galvin, many here would be up in arms as well. Like the Bennett thing. Damn if you do, damned if you don't. That is the way, often. Punters seem to believe you really can "eat your cake and keep it too".
But with Luai, even the Panthers, with four-peat titles, Matt Cameron, Ivan Cleary, couldn't afford to keep him or woo him to stay. Hello. Hypnotism, perhaps? But I could be wrong. People change. Luai might. Dunno. Also, has Luai activated any POs or asked for a release?
It's a bit naive to assume that if he went hard over Galvin, he's going to chase every bird on the market. If he thinks one of our juniors could be the answer, he's going to go for it, too. Why wouldn't he?
THEY COULD, but they won't?
Not cheap enough
The Price of True Love.
You could build an awesome GameShow from that title Hoe. The losers end up curled up and crying in the fetal position and the Winners end up.....curled up and crying in the fetal position.
The Price of True Love is best experienced as a spectator sport
LOL, Randy. I don't watch Reality TV Shows. Except 1EE. Love it...
Heheheh
We are starring in "Use What You Got!"....and hoping we don't feature in Rebuilds Gone Wrong
Still reckon jerome ends up at the dogs. Burton to perth bears
