While Manly had been on the lookout for a utility player to help them for the rest of the season – they had registered an interest in Bulldogs playmaker Kyle Flanagan – they’ve also offered Arthur a deal for 2024,giving him the chance to establish himself a regular NRL player.
Arthur scored in last year’s grand final defeat against the Panthers and has played 22 NRL games for the Eels,having been handed a debut by his dad during Magic Round in 2021.
