2025 should be his return date. Give him 12 months to get himself right and he goes down once more for lengthy period they should retire him.
Enough is Enough!

How about giving back to the club and stop focusing on wanting to be origin man of series…he needs to focus on manly in 24..have a year off origin like ponga…look how it’s helped knights…but I have a feeling all about me Tom will not consider this and all this hype about him being back for manly this year is really just letting mal know he will be right for Australian selection..he will probably get selected get injured and miss the first 6 games for manly in 24 only to rush back so he can be part of the nsw cool boy club and maybe win it for them or at least get mom…grab the cash and ride his ego all the way back to brookvale

Manly week 2 of the finals hey. Cool, I'll get myself fit for week 2 of the finals also and I'll fill in at prop and rag doll Payne Haas on his first hitup.
C'mon Manly
C'mon Manly
Gold mate, that gave me a great laugh!

I'm starting to think the whole club are delusional. Maybe if they convince themselves hard enough, they can pretend it's them in the Grand Final, and not an actual good team that's really there.
Honestly, given this is a premiership team and we are in our premiership window (and haven't won just 30% odd of our games since the jersey thing) maybe it's all just an optical illusion, and we ARE in fact world beaters.
Wonder if Mestrov / Siebold would put their entire savings on Manly this weekend given how amazing they claim we are haha. Tom claiming he'll return for the finals is disgraceful and out of touch.
No Tom, you ****ed any chance of that - AGAIN.

Ponga only declared himself unavailable after he was overlooked
Anger? Sick of him?
C'mon you guys he's our best player, he doesn't get hurt deliberately!
Johnny Gibbs?

Just over the same crap almost every year. Something has to change. Don't know what - possibly the whole thing, but we can't keep on keeping on with the same rubbish group of players , and expect something different.
Wonder if old Wayne would trade us the hammer and his salary for a broken turbo and his salary.

Tom Trbojevic is blue as much as he is maroon and white.
Few players get you out of your seat like Tommy ‘Turbo’, and that’s saying something given everyone hates Manly.
There’s nothing better when he’s wearing the sky-blue of NSW and leaving Queenslanders to cry into their XXXX.
Trbojevic’s blistering 2021 State of Origin series, when if he wasn’t scoring tries he was setting them up by running rampant at an average of 137-metres per-game, led to his award of the prestigious Brad Fittler medal as the Blues’ best player of that series.
However, watching Manly flap like a buggered seagull into a head wind to make this year’s finals without an injured Trbojevic, doesn’t sit right.

The time has come for Trbojevic to make a call on whether he needs to put Manly first and sit out next year’s Origin series.
Just ask Knights fans if they can love Kalyn Ponga any more?
Understandably devastated to be sidelined with a season-ending pec injury suffered two minutes into Origin II this year, Trbojevic sits in the grandstand at Manly games with an ashened face of frustration and discontent.
You just know the 26-year-old is hurting for the team.
However, the numbers show Manly is suffering just as bad.
The club’s highest-paid player, Trbojevic has managed just 18 games in the past two seasons.
In the 11 games he played this year before being injured with NSW, Trbojevic scored 10 tries and Manly won six of those matches.

Without Trbojevic, from rounds 16 to 24, Manly have won just three matches from eight starts.
And with the greatest of respect, those three wins were a two-point win over the struggling Roosters, a four-point win over the then out-of-form Sharks and a six-point win over the 16th-placed Dragons.
As a result, the Sea Eagles find themselves outside the top eight and needing to win all three of their remaining matches against the Warriors (away), Bulldogs (away) and Wests Tigers (home) to be any hope of scraping into the finals.
The call for Trbojevic to stand down from Origin selection in 2024 is obviously significant.
But the lure of remaining healthy and giving himself every chance to take his beloved Manly to a grand final is equally as alluring, is it not?
Tom Trbojevic needs to make a big call on his future. Picture: NRL Photos
One of the most significant lures for Luke Brooks to leave the Wests Tigers and head to Manly next year was to play with Trbojevic.
Throughout the negotiations, Brooks sat and watched countless hours of video of Trbojevic’s past two seasons. He eventually signed in the belief that he had the tools to help get the Ferrari firing again.
Sending your best players off to State of Origin is a proven formula to winning premierships. The experience of working in the harshest of high-pressure environments on a sporting field ultimately makes players better.
However, the fact that club CEO’s met last week with the NSWRL, where the need for 10-day Origin camps was raised, speaks to concern from clubland over the welfare of their highest-paid commodities, like Trbojevic.
It would be an almighty call for ‘Turbo’ to stand down from Origin, and as harsh as it may seem, NSW have shown they’ll be okay and capable of moving forward without Trbojevic in the centres with the likes of Stephen Crichton, Bradman Best and Izack Tago applying pressure.

If Manly fans need any proof of the value of their star being readily available for his club, just ask Newcastle what impact Ponga’s omission from State of Origin has done for them.
Ponga stood himself down for this year’s Origin after a series of head knocks. His decision has proven instrumental to the Knights’ late-season surge towards the top eight with Ponga playing some of the best football of his career.
“It was a really difficult decision to make but I will fight to win back my place in the Queensland side next year.”
Trbojevic should do exactly the same for Manly next year.

Turbo has done it all with NSW and Aust
All he needs now is a Manly Premiership Win and he has the terrific trifactor
True,
but if Fittler was a real decent coach, Tommy would not of been in the first SOO, based on form. It was a huge call and failed.
eagleron
Bencher
I think at the time of his injury he was returning to form, his game against the faders was as good as any he's put in over the past couple of seasons imo

Seems like everyone is conveniently forgetting that Ponga declared himself ineligible for Queensland after he was dropped (or not selected) for Reece Walsh - not before. I'm not 100% convinced it wasn't more of a hissy fit than selflessly putting his team first.
