TMM has the sweetest lifeIf you are in our position running 2nd on the table no coach in their right mind is massaging a young half(Cleary) into grade at halfback. TMM will 110% be the back up halfback for 2026 if Metcalf doesn't return.
What happens next year is a different kettle of fish as TMM is off contract this year, but depending on how things unfold they likely sign him for another year to bridge the gap with Metcalf gone while the young halfs develop further.
