Simple Question: Mark Nawaquanitawase Yes or No?

[Bates]

I doubt the ARU will offer Marky NRL money. I doubt he makes the current Wallabies line up tbh.
There was a massive stir when Joey signed on for $5M+ for 3 years.
I can't see Marky getting anywhere near that. From what I could find the current Wallabies outside back Max Jorgenson is on $1.6M over 3 years.
Marky's manager asked us for $750K a few months ago to extend 2 years before it was put on hold.
I can't see the ARU matching that unless he was a walk in for the Wallabies and even then that is much higher than some of the current players.
My biggest concern is with Perth and if the Saudis target him.

I'd say they can only afford one publicity stunt at a time and J Suaalii got the gig.

Going to suck when Marky N gets huge money to go back to Union in 2027 he is a complete freak when given half a chance to score a try.

[Teddy]

Mark is one of those rare specimens that just has nature’s gift he’s not the fastest but has freakish ability in spades he can turn a nothing play into a game winning one, not once have I seen this guy hesitate, he just backs himself to do the undoable and it comes off more often then not.

In one full NRL season no less, he has delivered a highlights package that most players don’t make in a career of NRL, X factor imagine turning him into Teddy’s understudy and what he will be as a FB in 2-3 years time, he along with Fahu Sammy W Hugo, Toia is the core group of players that a club builds a team around, all of these guys have the right attitude and good temperaments, not overly screaming and parading when scoring, love the club set good examples as young men, we could have a great group of leaders on and off the field in a few years time.

Uncle Nick sit down with his management and do what you can to convince this man to stay he’s as rare as hens teeth they don’t come along often.
Sign him up long term.

[Vasco]

Yes.

He offers so much even if it's for only one more season.

If they know he's leaving they need a succession plan.

We should be doing everything in our power to keep him. Teddy cant go on forever and I’d love to see him given the chance at fullback on a big money contract whenever it is he does give it away.

[elo]

If the Perth Bears are smart they'd be offering him top tier fullback money and making him their star signing for the 2027 launch, he's a ticket seller.

[HunchoRooster]

Enjoy it while we have him. Dont overthink it. Just enjoy it. Hopefully he can get us a premiership by the time he leaves.

wonderful. Good lord he is a beast.

No wonder my wife was the one who sent it to me

[BTRD]

So bloody talented. What he has done in such little time is quite remarkable. Hope he sticks around.

[bondi.boy]

If he goes back to Union he'll disappear from sight and sound.
He won't be a star like he is now. Ever see or hear about Suaalii these days?

Don't think Perth are in the hunt, those flights would would be tiresome and the place has very little NRL publicity or vibe.
