Superstar brothers Jake and Tom Trbojevic are set to give Manly a massive boost by signing new deals with the club before the premiership kicks off next month.

The pair head a host of big-name players who come off contract at the end of 2020, and thus are ‘fair game’ to sign with rival clubs from this November.

But Wide World of Sports has been told that the pair are keen to settle their futures as soon as possible - by signing long-term deals with Des Hasler’s Sea Eagles.


Several big-spending clubs are already preparing massive package deal offers to lure the pair away from Brookvale.

And only this week, elder brother Jake admitted to The Daily Telegraph that there was some uncertainty about the future.


“I have never thought about leaving, we are Manly boys. But you never know with the salary cap. All that sort of stuff happens,” the rugged forward said.

Wide World of Sports has been told the pair want to get the business of their futures settled before the season starts so it does not distract their football.

Negotiations are ongoing with an announcement expected in coming days.

Nice to have our guns locked up before combat starts round one.
Lots of clubs have them in their sites, hopefully they don't go off too early.

Let’s hope the Mole finally gets something about our club right for once... his credibility is only a couple of rings above that complete waffler the Lurker.

 

[Chip and Chase]

Will they get lifetime deals like DCE ??

 

[Class of 96]

Wonderful news. I get the feeling they are so heavily invested in the district on a personal level, that the sheer weight of money is a few notches down in their selection criteria for a club. Good lads that take a broader view of happiness and success than merely a bank balance. Refreshing!

The Mole never gets anything exclusive, he reads it on FB like the rest of us, cut and pastes his name on it, then pretends he is in the know!

Fraudster Oxygen thief at a minumum....

I especially like that you didn’t even bother mentioning the Jerker... not worth the words, or the time wasted on writing them.

Maybe Moley misread Bulldogs article that virtually says the Turbos are basically out the door due to cap and they miss Trent.

Sadly, that is a real possibility.

 

[mickqld]

Hmmm another believe it when it's announced article.

 

[tookey]

But I thought that Trent was the best coach and they were going to follow him?

Obviously don't have any confidence on Trent getting another NRL coaching job in the near future

I love the mole. He is the only person less in the know than me.

 

[SeaEagle21]

Please let this one be true, takes away any ammo journos might use during the course of the season to link them to other clubs.

Thank you for delivering great news story @Mitch . Signing the Turbo twins will always be double trouble for opposition teams !

Come on mate, don't be so harsh on yourself. Still, have Danny Weidler between you and the mole.

 

[DUFFMAN]

Greenturd has flipped out on this news and has called a 4:00 pm meeting to get his team to find a way to refuse any attempt by the Eagles to sign any of the Trbojevic family on his watch.

 

[MadMarcus]

Hmmm another believe it when it's announced article.

These articles make me just as nervous as the ones that say they could leave. I just want to hear the announcement that they have re-signed asap...

 

[double hoops]

Both got paid overs last time, crazy money for kids with potential who didn't have experience on there side or proven rep players. They both still have two seasons to run on the old contract. They are both Manly boys and Manly favourites who should attract the most amount of 3rd party deals in their favour whilst playing at Manly. Manly needs to get more competitive with the top teams by managing their cap space better. It needs to start with these two boys, not end with these two new contracts.
