Wests Tigers have granted their skipper, Jahream Luai, permission to leave his contract early, according to multiple reports. The decision comes after Luai signed with the PNG Chiefs for the 2028 season. With that future agreement in place, the Tigers’ permission allows him to explore an early departure from the joint-venture club for next season rather than staying until the end of his current contract term. The reports state that Luai is on a $1.2 million contract with Wests Tigers, and the club’s approval gives him the option of seeking an earlier move. Details on the timing, process, and whether an early release will ultimately be accepted by both the player and the club are not provided in the available summaries. Overall, the information across outlets focuses on the club granting permission to consider an exit and the link to his previously reported commitment to play for the PNG Chiefs starting in 2028.
