Quote: dandaman "Manlys dropped there interest in Bateman, looks like he really is clubless for next year, think we'll show some interest? Hope we're keeping an eye on cross, bullock and Watkins, think any would enhance our squad'"
Bateman has a club for next year and the year after, he’s at Wests until 2027 unless they decide to pay him his two years. They’re maybe looking better recently but Wests recruitment/retention has been a horror show for years, especially considering the players they’ve let go has made ours look professional.
