<\/p>\n\u201cThe other part of that is we want to have some oversight, as best we can, as to the financial stability and guarantees linked to the competition. In other words, before anyone puts pen to paper, we need to be satisfied, as their advisers, that there is a level of financial security tied up in the competition. And we\u2019re still seeking that information.\u201d<\/p>\n
The Wasserman agency has some big NRL names on its books, including Reece Walsh, Kaeo Weekes, Stefano Utoikamanu, Ezra Mam, Hamiso Tabuai-Fidow and Xavier Coates. They also have one of the world\u2019s biggest rugby union stables, representing more than 100 clients who have played Test rugby in the past 12 months.<\/p>\n

Tuivasa-Sheck was an obvious R360 target given his history in both codes, which includes NRL premiership success in 2013, a Dally M Medal in 2018 and representing the All Blacks in 2022. R360\u2019s offer of a three-year contract, worth seven figures a season, is considerably more than he could make in the NRL, given he is 32 years old and committed to seeing out the remainder of his Warriors contract, which expires at the end of 2026.<\/p>\n
Asked about the chances of Tuivasa-Sheck joining R360, Sharrock said: \u201c[Based on] what I know at the moment, no he wouldn\u2019t. Otherwise he would have signed.<\/p>\n
\u201cUntil I\u2019m comfortable with the long-form agreement, he wouldn\u2019t because we don\u2019t have the information. Until we have the information, my advice to my client is don\u2019t sign.\u201d<\/p>\n
The former Roosters fullback has kept the Warriors abreast of the R360 developments from the outset, and both parties are open to the prospect of a contract extension. The Warriors want to monitor how the Samoa international gets through another pre-season and his early form in 2026, while other NRL clubs have been told he is keeping his options open.<\/p>\n
\u201cOn balance, six weeks ago \u2026 I would have said [R360] was the best option for him based on what we knew,\u201d Sharrock said.<\/p>\n
\u201cBut because we\u2019ve not got the information in a timely fashion \u2013 I had a chat to Roger [Wednesday] morning \u2013 as far as I\u2019m concerned, everything is on hold and we continue to explore all options …<\/p>\n

\u201cWhether that be another year or two at the Warriors, whether it be an alternate club in the NRL, whatever it could be, our role is simply looking at all options.\u201d<\/p>\n
Storm star Cameron Munster is the latest NRL player linked to R360, while Papenhuyzen and Lomax are tipped to make the switch. The NRL has threatened managers and players who engage with R360 with 10-year bans. Schifcofske said on Wednesday he would not deal with R360<\/a> officials to avoid having his NRL accreditation cancelled.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\u201cThe other part of that is we want to have some oversight, as best we can, as to…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":297631,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[568],"tags":[64,63,761,762,158,85],"class_list":["post-299760","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-nrl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-national-rugby-league","tag-nationalrugbyleague","tag-nrl","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299760","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=299760"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/299760\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/297631"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=299760"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=299760"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=299760"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
