Manly have announced the signing of Warriors hooker Karl Lawton until the end of the 2022 season.
The 25-year-old was released from his final year with the Warriors and will now call Brookvale home for the next two seasons.
Unfortunately for Manly, Lawton remains sidelined for a majority of the 2021 season due to an Achilles injury, with an expected return date scheduled for Round 12.
โKarl brings plenty of added depth and experience as a hooker,โโ said Sea Eagles Recruitment Officer, Noel Cleal told the club website.
Lawton has played a total of 45 NRL games with the Titans and Warriors, beginning in 2016.
Well they’ve excelled themselves this time, signing a hooker with an Achilles injury who was released from TWO unsuccessful clubs who is ruled out till round 12…WTF
