In a massive coup, Manly is poised to secure gun West Tigers halfback Luke Brooks.
This masthead understands the deal will span three years and be announced shortly.
Brooks' recruitment - joining incumbent Daly Cherry-Evans - will give Manly a world-class halves combination from next season.
After 11 seasons with Wests Tigers, Brooks, 28, elected against re-signing at Concord.
He had previously been linked to Canterbury, St George Illawarra and North Queensland.
Brooks could sign a two-year contract at Brookvale but it's more likely a three-season deal.
He was on a whopping deal worth $1.15m this year at Wests Tigers.
Brooks' new deal at Manly could be worth around $2m over three seasons.
