In a stunning revelation that has sent shockwaves through the NRL community, Manly Sea Eagles superstar Tom Trbojevic has reportedly rejected a jaw-dropping $468.4 million offer from the Canberra Raiders, choosing instead to honor his long-term commitment to the Sea Eagles.

The 28-year-old fullback, affectionately known as “Turbo,” recently signed a contract extension with Manly that will keep him at the club from the 2027 through 2029 NRL seasons. Despite the Raiders’ record-shattering offer — believed to be one of the richest in rugby league history — Trbojevic has made it clear that loyalty and legacy outweigh financial temptation.

> “Manly is home,” Trbojevic said in a brief statement through his management team. “This club has given me everything — from my debut to my best moments in the game. My goal has always been to finish my career as a Sea Eagle.”

Sources close to the negotiations confirmed that the Raiders’ proposal included not only an unprecedented salary figure but also a range of performance bonuses and ambassadorial opportunities post-retirement. However, Trbojevic’s decision reportedly came down to his strong ties to the Northern Beaches club, his teammates, and the Manly community.

Manly CEO Tony Mestrov praised Trbojevic’s loyalty, calling him “the heart and soul of our team.”

> “Tom’s commitment to this club is extraordinary,” Mestrov said. “He’s not just one of the best players in the world — he’s the kind of person every club dreams of building around.”

The news comes as Manly looks to rebuild toward another finals push, with Trbojevic expected to play a central role both on and off the field. His leadership, work ethic, and connection with younger players have made him a cornerstone of the Sea Eagles’ future plans.

While Canberra fans will no doubt be disappointed, Raiders management acknowledged that Trbojevic’s loyalty “sets a powerful example” in a sport increasingly dominated by big-money moves.

As one NRL insider put it:

> “You can’t put a price on legacy — and Tom Trbojevic just proved it.”
