D'Arcy Waldegrave: Sportstalk host on Joey Manu reportedly considering release from French rugby contract - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The race for Joey Manu's signature on both sides of the Tasman - across both oval-ball codes - appears on.

The Sydney Morning Herald reports the former Rooster - poised to leave Japanese rugby club Toyota for France in the coming months - now wants out of that Racing 92 contract on compassionate grounds.

The report suggests Manu's considering a return to either Sydney or New Zealand.

Sportstalk host D'Arcy Waldegrave explains further.
