Manly Sea Eagles set to lose Zach Dockar-Clay and Aaron Schoupp

The Manly Sea Eagles are preparing to part ways with two players as pre-season approaches. Dummy-half Zach Dockar-Clay, who made only one NRL appearance this year, is reportedly exploring opportunities with the Cronulla Sharks for 2027. His teammate Aaron Schoupp, a centre-back-rower, is in discussions with the North Queensland Cowboys after struggling with an ACL injury that limited his play in 2026. Manly is also interested in acquiring Jake Tago from the Parramatta Eels, who has had limited NRL time this season, focusing instead on NSW Cup matches.
