Why not both

Potentially, at first receiver for backline shape, it could be something very basic but effective for us.

Actually really like the Jake Arthur signing.
As with 90% of halves they take years to mature into quality first-graders. This is his 6th year in NRL squads yet he's only 22, is now consistently dominating at Cup level - not something our current options have managed this year. Every chance he becomes a late bloomer who provides a solid halves option.

”Because he's signed next year, don't have to worry about the Knights not prioritising a leaving player (not that I think that would be a problem). Can get him into the club's culture before pre-season.
Good question. My guess is it needed to happen like that to free up a spot for Arthur?

Can't transfer this year after 30 June (I believe), and Manly must be confident of having him healthy before end of year.

Does this mean we still have a top 30 spot if we sign TDS today?

Someone else would need to make way to fit Da Silva in before June 30.

Even with Bryan leaving?

Bit of movement in the last 48 hours according to the Telegraph:
- Doesn't talk about the Jake Arthur move as a done deal but it's a safe bet with Toohey reporting it
- Lachlan Crouch back to the Knights immediately
- Riley Jones gone to Cronulla
- Also says Knights blocked an approach from Manly for Jack Hetherington

Can see Jones thriving as an Atkinson replacement in the 14 jersey.
Hopefully Hethrington re-signs on a much reduced contract.

Arthur has 20 try assists in cup this year. He isn’t as bad as people think he is.

Not a bad result for us. Depth in halves and forwards for the cost of a utility in Jones and a prop with a busted shoulder.

Da Silva to the Eels 4 year deal.
