The club could have been unambiguous, and still posted the story in a positive light.

The way they’ve presented the story is classic James Rule style.

Just have be honest. It’s not difficult.

Those people saying he will eventually come here full time, why would he leave Manly ? It sounds like an opportunity for him to earn some extra money from a mate while keeping his main job in a much bigger market with much better resources, plus getting some free flights home from time to time. I just hope he is committed to the role, its not going to be easy doing a full days work then coming home and doing more. Especially for 3 years.

It isn't ideal but it's another step forward

The club have announced Clarke as a consultant. Don't think they are trying go pull the wool over anyone's eyes.

Manly is one of the nicest placest ive ever visited, as much as I stick up for this city at times...might ask my employer if I can work remotely from there
