June 30 Deadline

Garner is available but personally I'm not for it.

Barely an upgrade on Burbo tbh, if at all.

We need either better or younger with higher upside.
Havn't been following him but hasn't he played in a few NRL grand final already, better than some of our crap, also he's still very young.

Jake Arthur played in a grand final...

Also he is 30 on the 6th of Sept.....not very young in my eyes.

Look Garner is a solid player, and I'd have him ahead of Waddell and Chee Kam as edge options, arguably Burbo too but I still think we should be aiming higher.

I'm not talking long term, maybe few years. Better than some idiots we've got.
 
We need quality though not list cloggers
No I was perhaps thinking a forward , not getting a run elsewhere , signed for another club in 26 that’s languishing in Reggie’s just as a fill in fur 3 months.

Maybe pie in the sky stuff

Knights poised to snare playmaker immediately

Jake Arthur is tipped to make an immediate switch to Newcastle just before the June 30 transfer window shuts.

The Knights have struggled to settle on a halves combination and Arthur is poised to provide coach Adam O’Brien with another option. Arthur is contracted to Manly until the end of the season and no release agreement has been struck, but the Sea Eagles are unlikely to stand in his way.

The move will reunite Arthur with former Parramatta halves partner Dylan Brown next season, the latter agreeing to a mammoth 10-year, $13 million deal. Arthur will also join his brother, Matt, who has made three appearances for the Knights.

O’Brien is a close friend of Jake’s father and former Eels coach Brad Arthur. The Newcastle coach is the godfather to Charlotte, Jake’s sister.

Arthur came to the Sea Eagles to provide halves cover, particularly when Daly Cherry-Evans is away on State of Origin duty. But now that Cherry-Evans has been dropped as Queensland captain, Arthur is less likely to be required.

Injuries and a lack of opportunity have restricted Arthur to just seven NRL appearances for Manly during the past two seasons.

There are likely to be other transfer moves before June 30. Tigers hooker Tallyn Da Silva has been granted permission to explore his options and has been courted by Manly, Parramatta, Newcastle and North Queensland.
