I'm hearing (not the most reliable source but have heard it from a couple of people now) both T-Red and Mateo will be up to Newcastle for rest of the season basically playing for a contract somewhere next year. With Snowden's medical retirement set to free up some $ immediately thanks to some fast tracking by NRL (shock horror, helping their own interests). Both basically guaranteed starting spots up there with all the long term injuries and having only small chance of game time at manly. Supposedly knights (ie. nrl) covering all remaining contract for the year, which was why manly didnt release t-red earlier as they would've been paying for him to be elsewhere, now this offer has come along. Take it all with a grain of salt though. everyone seems to have an "in" these days haha.
