Loko Pasifiki Tonga requests immediate release

Sign the bloke. He is very similar to Sam Tuivita. Both played u19 origin blues together. He ran for 200m+ last week in nsw cup and still didnt get called into their side lol. Unlike the other duds from the DT article, this bloke is young and heaps of upside.

        • and others think "Well if they are going there, so will i....it's like a kebab shop or Chinese restaurant, you don't eat at the empty ones. Being empty means other folks are letting you know it is garbage

          • I remember being in Bali Randy, lined up lobster reaturants on the beach at Jimbarren Bay, they all looked full and booked out..... don't worry everyone, I found one where we can get a booking I said.....my family & friends never appreciated the cost associated.

            Personally I didn't mind much, I had the fish! LOL

      • Luai had options in his contract Chiefy.....

  • Dragons has rejected his request for a release. Maybe if our R&R team is on the ball, they can request Dragons to loan him to us and he plays first grade. Both sides win for the time being. Then if our R&R team is good, maybe they can make something to happen to convince Dragons to let him go ( which I doubt they will do).

    • this maybe more smoke & mirrors by the Saints, in a bid to extract someone from the eels or other club interested in the big fella. hes signed with saints until end of 2027 by looks of things.

      i do agree with you though that loaning him out could help the dragons long term, if they do keep him. 

      • We have one Zac Lomax we can offer them.

        • What about the cash we picked up on the Lomax exodus, i.e. it doesn't matter what bucket its in now, we know its not cap....actually legal fees but hold your mouth correctly and it looks like we are paying transfer fee to the Dragons based on that payout, obviously what ever we are paying the Loco is cap, the transfer not.

          Make it very attractive to Loco and he can be a lot more aggresive with his masters!

          When negotiating or trading there are always counter and counter counter offers.....sounds like we need to be quick and assertive.....I am not sure we have anyone that is quick and assertive other than JAC and I am not sure how assertive he is......now here is an opportunity for the MON haters!

          PS My wifeI could negotiate this, just requires a reverse "filibuster" she's a bit like me, stubborn as a mule! LOL

          • The Eels got ZERO from the Lomax saga 

            • Nobody got anything from the Lomax shemozzle and I am fine with that.

              We could not get what we wanted but we made damn sure that Melb, Ugly Pete and Lomax didn't get what they wanted either. I am also fine with that.

              Fuck 'em all, write it off, no probs....but you have to replace him.

              We did not get zero from the saga we got Brian fucking Kelly ....and I am NOT fine with that ...nuh-uh. 

               

            • Mallee57 We got legal fees paid for, 250k
