Robert lui has only played 4 games nrl in the past 18 months an that was off the bench so I'd think again!!!

And everyone seems to think B M-M is a prop?? Look at his best clips he is wearing 13 when fit and I've watched on premier sports he is a top class back rower

Who was in front of him?

Liu was unlucky, it was just some no mark

To be fair it was Thurston an Morgan
But if he was that good someone would of snapped him up a year ago or so ??

Hope he proves he wrong

looked like he could of gone last year but got convinced to stay. www.nrl.com/cowboys-re-sign-robe ... fault.aspx looks like he has off the field issues which he knows he needs to keep inline. just seen some youtube videos of lui and he looks good. can see he struggled with his weight as one clip he nice and trim next he big and powerful.

Robert Lui had several offers to leave but both he and his partner are from Townsville and all their family live in the area.He really wanted to make a go of it at NQC and has been playing for their feeder club the Townsville Blackhawks,who managed to get to the state final.Also earlier in the year he was struggling with a bad hamstring injury which held him back from reclaiming a spot on the Cowboys roster.Still stood in for Thurston during Origin when the Cowboys are always seriously understrength and managed to lead them to victory over St George.The guy is a serious talent and should not be underestimated as long as he gets his confidence and settles into life at Salford.

Lui has played 4 times this season due to injury and only once was off the bench.Last year he played 25 games and only 3 of them were off the bench.In total in the last 18 months he has played approx 25 times for the Cowboys with only 4 of those games starting on the bench so i think you need to check your stats a little better.

Not quite.

For a start, it wasn’t dismissed, a settlement was reached which the Puletua’s were more than happy with. An RFL representative also sat in on the whole thing and as a result now have enough evidence to investigate the club for offering and paying side payments. If they’re found guilty, we’ll be hit with a hefty points deduction.

With regards to the new signings, I am more than happy. Some people will moan that we have let quality like Chase, Hansen and Paterson go and replaced them with average players but I trust Sheens vision. In true style, he will turn us into a solid, workmanlike, no frills team that will be difficult to beat but also score plenty of tries. Robert Lui is the pick of the bunch, he really is a very good signing.

Presumably if there's a hefty points deduction on the way then there's no point in spending any more on the squad than we need to see us through the middle 8s again?

If JGR is right and we do loose points.They will probably change to one up one down,and get rid of us that way.

To be fair to Liu he may be a decent player.

However his lengthy ban for beating the c**p out of his girlfriend got in the way.

Watched Lui on Premier sports a few times last year, he did okay but was basically fulfilling the role Gareth Widdop did for Cooper Cronk at Melbourne so he was never going to stand out.

He seems okay and while he will never look a worldie maybe having structure isn't such a bad thing. Maybe he will be able to show his true potential when out of JT's shadow.
