Parra have till 5pm today to sign a player, who do you think it will be? Rumour floating around it could be Adam Clune. Or will Marty Taupau eventually get his release. Interesting times ahead.

True but to purchase another half for backup for 3/4 games would be a waste. Unless BA has come to realise JA isn't ready. I'd prefer a big body to be signed. Manly knocked back Parra's approach for Taupau twice yesterday afternoon.

There is absolutely no way BA isn't using this chance for Jake . He tried shifting one of the best 5/8 in the comp to get him in the side and when that didn't work he thought Mahoney and him could be the next Brad Drew & PJ Marsh .
He's 100% sticking him in now this chance has opened up . Even if a capabale backup became available tomorrow .. Jake is his man .

"$600 million to prevent China's Belt & Road initiative parking warships in PNG ports on 50 year deals is a frakkin bargain.
Also, if we are talking "Albo gave PNG $600 million", well guess how much money ScoMo gave PNG in 2018-2022? A hint: one…"
"Mitchy, an easy way to get $600 million is simply to claw back at least 1.5% of the $40 billion per annum foregone revenue due to giving gas away to foreign multinationals. That is, just make royalties on gas 1.5% more efficient.
Problem solved!
Or…"
"The one we need to keep an eye on is Chris Petrus. He's from PNG and the lure of representing his home country's first NRL side could be too good to pass up. But he's still very young and may not quite be NRL ready in 2028.
Jez Funa-Iuta, Guymer and…"
"Desination clubs somehow manage to keep "elite" junior talent waiting in the wings for longer than we seem to be able to.
I do think we have to get better at this "next man up" or "finishing school" mentality where junior players see that it's worth…"

I just can't see BA chasing another halfback, unless of course he's been told to.
Where did Clunes name come from.
He's a decent backup.

Haha can't argue with that tbh
How does it have to be Clune?
There could be other options..
Hock
FINALLY!!!
I don't think Manly will let us have him. If it was a club other than us they probably would let him go.
Clune would be a handy pick up and a much better option at 7 than JA.
Manly also have some pretty big internal issues to sort out and the last thing they need is a senior player kicking stones.
