Reuben Garrick has followed the trail laid by Daly Cherry-Evans in opting to leave Manly and pen a long-term deal with the Sydney Roosters.<\/p>\n

The Roosters confirmed on Thursday that Garrick, who made his NRL<\/a> debut with the Sea Eagles in 2019, will head to Moore Park in 2027.<\/p>\n

Garrick has signed a three-year deal with the Roosters, who confirmed the long-anticipated capture of former Manly skipper Cherry-Evans last month.<\/p>\n

Cherry-Evans has signed a year-long contract but has an option in his deal which could allow him to play on into 2027.<\/p>\n

Garrick has shown plenty of versatility across more than 150 games for the Sea Eagles, playing as a winger or centre and an occasional fullback.<\/p>\n

Garrick has also established himself as one of the NRL’s most-reliable goalkickers in his time at Brookvale Oval.<\/p>\n

The outside back currently sits third in Manly’s all-time points standings and will likely surpass Jamie Lyon in the 2026 NRL season.<\/p>\n

Garrick’s arrival at the Roosters will go some way to offsetting the pending exit of Mark Nawaqanitawase, who will return to rugby union in 2027.<\/p>\n

Veteran Tongan Test winger Daniel Tupou, who turns 35 next year, is also off contract at the end 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Reuben Garrick has followed the trail laid by Daly Cherry-Evans in opting to leave Manly and pen a…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":167697,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[111,139,69,213],"class_list":{"0":"post-167696","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-sports","8":"tag-new-zealand","9":"tag-newzealand","10":"tag-nz","11":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167696","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=167696"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/167696\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/167697"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=167696"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=167696"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=167696"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
