That rumour has been around for a while:

Jackson Hastings linked with new NRL club in fresh blow to Super League suitors

The latest twist in the future of Jackson Hastings

Would Hastings have been at manly under Hasler when he had a falling out with DCE?

 

[kos]

Foran wont play every game. His body is battered can see him playing fifty per cent.
Campbell and Brimson carry injuries and are out of games frequently so this might have legs.

Would Hastings have been at manly under Hasler when he had a falling out with DCE?

Trent Barrett was the coach at that stage in 2018. Was speculation during the year that Hughes was keen on a return home and that was assumed Gold Coast. Will be interesting to keep an eye on

 

[Mr. Brownstone]

Maybe release Keano Kini and play Brimson at fullback. Hastings and Foran in the halfs. Campbell off the bench.

They would release any of those other players you mention ahead of Kini.

They would release any of those other players you mention ahead of Kini.

Their forum was a bit nervous that we’d go for Kini. Think it was mostly because they’d seen he was close to SJ in Kiwis camp
