Turbo tied up long term

[DUFFMAN]

Not to us but his partner


He helped lead the Kangaroos to a win in the Pacific Championships but Manly superstar Tommy Trbojevic has an even bigger reason to celebrate after becoming engaged to his long-time partner, Kristi Wilkinson.
Trbojevic announced the news on social media on Thursday night, posting an image of he and a beaming Wilkinson sporting an engagement ring.
The pair also posted pictures of their room in the southern highlands showered with rose petals. A host of rugby league’s biggest names reacted to the news by posting messages of congratulations.

Among those to reach out to the loved-up pair were Manly teammates Haumole Olakau’atu and Reuben Garrick, Gold Coast star Kieran Foran, South Sydney captain Cameron Murray, Penrith winger Brian To’o, and former teammate turned radio star Cooper Johns.
Trbojevic is fresh from playing a leading role in Australia’s win over Tonga in the final of the Pacific Championships. The Sea Eagles superstar overcame injury to play for Australia and win the Harry Sunderland medal as Australia’s player of the series.

Well done and congrats to both of them.

I hadn't heard that but well deserved, he was excellent.
Should be set for a great season in 2025 (oh yeah happy at home will help too, congrats) 🙂

You sure are a bright spark @globaleagle but I think his better half was impressed by some other sparkling ✨ thing and I’m not suggesting the coins in his pockets.

Put her on staff for $250,000 per year so we can pay him less.

That’s the rooster way, then when a player retires put on as coaching staff at $300,000 a year.

Congrats to Tom & Kristi.
I'm not surprised as they've been together for quite a while and Kristi's stuck by him through all his injuries, which couldn't have been easy. Anyway, Tom probably thought if Jake can do it so can I. Good on them!

And now tied up at Manly for the next 4 years.

I guess he is still not playing for Manly for unders.

$830K for an elite fullback is not overs in my opinion.

Feels about right. Just stay healthy.

 

[The '47ers]

If he loves Manly and Manly loves him and all the crap that keeps flowing - why not just offer a year by year contract?

 

[Ohgeez]

So he went from telling Super League clubs he’s available to extending on a long term deal in 1 week? Gotta love NRL journalists 🤣🤦‍♂️

Goes from whinging about Turbo looking to go to SL to moaning about us re-signing him

And the "fans" (not looking at you @XV-1 ) who swallow the bait hook, line & sinker & spread the journo's rubbish online

 

[DUFFMAN]

Good news
Feels overpriced for the amount of time he spends on the field but probably a great deal for a top tier fullback, hopefully he has used up his injury curse and we get him on the field 80-90% of each season.
Also good signs of discussions of moving him elsewhere in the backs in the future which I feel should prolong his career.

What's Buzz or Danny going to report on now with him being unhappy and not going to super league.

Interesting that the meeting was with Peter Gentle and not Tony Mestrov
