Buzz posted story in DT a few hours back.
Crikey, every time things do not go Flanno’s way, he blames the coach or others & never accepts being dropped to NSW Cup to get some form and work his way back. Always looks for an immediate exit to another club usually with Dad’s help. Good luck at Manly Kyle.
I think Kyle/Shane must know deep down, he’s not a top level NRL half. Eventually I think his options in NRL will dry up. His best option will be ESL. As I’ve said before, I believe he will do well in ESL.

And before the end of 2023 as well..
What do we get out of it ?…besides the obvious
Let’s start joining the dots a little bit here..
Wakeham and Flanagan..both gone within weeks of each other..both halfbacks…hmmm
Davey gone after how many games??
Brandon Clarke..highly regarded coming through the grades..Gooooone!!!
All within around a month.
Now there are 2 top 30 spots open..
Apparently we had around 650k in this years cap a month ago..
Now with Wakeham,Flanagan and Davey gone..that figure has significantly changed surely.
Gus has conjured up something special I reckon..
An entree and main course Belmore bound??
Sounds succulent!!!
huh

Don’t think he always oooks for an exit. He’s tried to stick around at doggs when he’s had offers and he didn’t want to leave roosters

I've only seen stories saying his dad is trying to get him to manly. Which would make sense. Schuster isn't a half.

Wakeham left the Dogs at the end of last season, not weeks ago.

Saint, Sinner, Shoosh: Manly Sea Eagles swoop to snap up Kyle Flanagan | Daily Telegraph
The Manly Sea Eagles are on the verge of signing halfback Kyle Flanagan from the Canterbury Bulldogs for the remainder of the season as a back-up for Daly Cherry Evans during Origin.

Bulldogs’ general manager of football Phil Gould has been trying to offload the former Sharks and Roosters halfback to the English Super League.

Instead Manly Sea Eagles coach Anthony Seibold has jumped in to use Flanagan as an insurance policy for 34-year-old Cherry Evans.

It is an important signing for Manly because of concerns around the short term future of five-eighth Josh Schuster.

This means Cooper Johns will be playing five-eighth for at least the next month instead of providing cover for Cherry Evans at halfback.

This is why Seibold has signed Flanagan on a cheap deal in which Bulldogs will contribute.

At this stage it is only for the remainder of the season.

His father Shane Flanagan is Manly’s assistant coach but has played no role in the negotiations.

The 24-year-old Flanagan has played 70 NRL games at the Sharks, Roosters and Bulldogs.

He was dropped from the Bulldogs’ starting line-up this week, replaced by veteran Josh Reynolds for the match against the Dragons.

It would be like Christmas coming early.

If not it’s still great news that he is left, right, out.
