Statement from Chief Operating Officer David Perry

The Manly Warringah Sea Eagles have been formally advised by police of the tragic passing of Jason Annear, a talented member of the NSW Cup team.

Jason was a popular, highly respected and valued member of the team on and off the field.

He joined the Manly family in 2007, playing both Harold Matthews and SG Ball before debuting in Toyota Cup in 2009 and graduating to NSW Cup in 2012.

His passing has come as a great shock to the club and our thoughts and prayers are with Jason
