MANLY great Steve Menzies is open to offers to return to the NRL as he contemplates another season of top-flight rugby league.

The off-contract 36-year-old told The Manly Daily he is ready for one more year and would consider an offer to have another season in the NRL.

“I’d obviously take a look at it if there was an offer put in front of me,” Menzies said on Thursday.

“I’m still looking around. I’m pretty keen to play one more season, the body feels good and I think I can still compete at that level.

“It’s more likely that I’ll play another year overseas. But I’d consider coming back.”

Manly CEO Graham Lowe indicated the Sea Eagles are within the salary cap and are unlikely to lure Menzies back.

He last played in the NRL in the 2008 grand final thumping of the Melbourne Storm.

For the past two seasons he has been playing for the Bradford Bulls in the English Super League.

Menzies said Manly’s current squad is capable of repeating their premiership success, provided they get a couple more players back from injury.

“On their day, they can produce as good as any team, we are still a good chance,” he said.

“We’ve got the right balance of players there, but we’ve got to be at full strength.

“If they win their next two games they can be in the top four, then anything can happen.”

Meanwhile, Sea Eagles utility back Ben Farrar is expected to depart the club at season’s end to play in England.
