- Biography:
A local junior, Luai was a member of the premiership-winning Panthers NYC side in 2015. He stepped up to senior football in 2017 and played five-eighth in the Panthers ISP side that won the premiership and the state championship title. He made his NRL debut in 2018 and then made headlines in his second game with two scintillating tries in a man-of-the-match performance against New Zealand Warriors. In 2020 Luai established himself in the halves alongside Nathan Cleary and played a key role in the team's charge to the NRL Grand Final. He made his State of Origin debut in 2021 and helped the Panthers to premiership success later that year and again in 2022 and 2023. Luai will depart the club for Wests Tigers at the end of the 2024 season.
