NRL: The agent of Parramatta Eels and New Zealand Kiwis star Dylan Brown is reportedly seeking expressions of interest from rival clubs for 2026 and beyond.
Wests Tigers coach Benji Marshall lauded the “passion and creativity” super signing Jarome Luai would add to the club’s leadership after naming the four-time premiership winner co-captain for his first season at the club.Luai, who moved to the Tigers on a big-money deal from Penrith, will join Api Koroisau, another former premiership winner at the Panthers, who has led the club for the past two seasons, having also been appointed captain in his first season in 2023.
“Adding Jarome’s passion and creativity to our leadership structure makes this partnership really exciting.“Together, they bring a balance of stability and flair that will drive our team forward in 2025.” He has been regarded by some critics as a polarising figure having found himself the target of online attacks for some of his social media work during Origin.
Koroisau, who won three premierships with Luai at Penrith, said the growth in the Tigers since he joined made it exciting to push on as captain.
