Hospitalised league star Jarome Luai is likely to be available for the upcoming State of Origin decider in Sydney

28 June 2025 - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

The New South Wales five-eighth is on the mend after missing the Tigers' 28-10 loss to Manly.

Luai was ruled out on the morning of the game due to an infection that turned feverish and requirement hospitalisation.

The Tigers' loss marked their sixth in a row, with coach Benji Marshall conceding his team had taken a step backwards after several close defeats.

The Raiders are now top of the table after beating the Knights 22-18.
