It seems that the Wests Tigers are in hot water again, as former player Aaron Woods has issued a warning about the potential fallout from Benji Marshall's 'secret' meeting with Jarome Luai.
Luai, who is currently a free agent for 2025, has been the subject of intense contract negotiations with the Penrith Panthers.
The Tigers, however, are reportedly keen on luring the talented five-eighth to their ranks with a lucrative offer.
According to reports, Marshall, who is now the Tigers' coach, met with Luai at his family home to discuss the possibility of joining the club, but the news of the meeting has raised concerns about the Tigers' ability to keep things under wraps.
Woods pointed out that the constant leaks from within the club could potentially deter Luai from considering a move to the Tigers.
Despite the potential backlash, Woods commended Marshall for his proactive approach in trying to recruit top players, but also acknowledged the delicate nature of the situation.
It remains to be seen how Luai will respond to the publicized meeting, and whether it will have any impact on his decision-making process.
