Why Manly Sea Eagles Jake and Tom Trbojevic didn’t bat an eyelid at rivals offering millions

YOU could deadset drive a dump truck full of money up to the Trbojevic homestead, and you wouldn’t prise two of the NRL’s hottest talents out of their Beaches bubble.

How incredibly, utterly Manly.

The Dragons gave it a go, to the tune of a reported $6 million combined over three years starting from 2018.

Brothers Jake and Tom didn’t bat an eyelid between them.

The Mona Vale locals who still live at home with mum and dad are Manly men until the end of 2020, the club securing long-term commitments before the rest of the NRL got a legitimate crack at them from November 1.

They don’t come cheap. Recent Kangaroos debutant and club vice-captain Jake’s extension comes in at around $2.1 million over the next three years.

Twenty-year-old Tom collects a cool $2.7 million as the successor to Sea Eagles patron saint Brett Stewart.

But ask them about those rival temptations, and you wonder if the pair would actually stay put for peanuts.

Those 2 bleed Marron and white. Its great to hear their passion for the club.

Future legends of the club.

With Jake in leadership I really hope he brings back or culture. It is very important.
 
Why make billions of dollars when we can make MILLIONS.

Just kidding, I admire them and would do the same. Accept a little less for the job I love.
 
Best article all summer
Now the club needs to repay them by giving them the best opportunity to win a few premierships for this club...
Will be a great shame if this boys can't win a title together here.
