_Matty Johns Sounds Warning on Nathan Cleary’s Potential England Move_
Rugby league legend Matty Johns has expressed concerns for Nathan Cleary’s future, should the Penrith Panthers star halfback make a shock move to England to be with his partner, Matildas captain Mary Fowler.
“A Career-Defining Decision”
Johns, a respected NRL commentator, believes Cleary’s potential switch to the Super League would jeopardize his Australian representative career and potentially diminish his legacy.
“Nathan’s at the peak of his powers, and if he goes to England, it’ll be a huge blow to his Origin and Kangaroos prospects,” Johns said on his popular podcast, ‘The Matty Johns Podcast’.
“Fear for His Career”
Johns’ concerns stem from the reduced competition level in the Super League compared to the NRL, which could lead to:
1. Decreased exposure
2. Reduced competition intensity
3. Impact on Cleary’s game awareness and development
“Cleary’s Legacy at Stake”
As one of the NRL’s premier halfbacks, Cleary’s move would not only affect his individual career but also:
1. Penrith Panthers’ premiership aspirations
2. New South Wales Blues’ Origin chances
3. Australia’s international rugby league standing
“Personal Life vs. Professional Ambitions”
Cleary’s relationship with Mary Fowler, who plays for Manchester City in the Women’s Super League, has sparked speculation about his potential move. Johns acknowledges the importance of personal happiness but urges Cleary to consider the long-term implications.
“Nathan needs to weigh up his priorities: love and family versus his rugby league legacy,” Johns said.
