- Biography:
Jason Saab enjoyed a superb debut season for the Sea Eagles in 2021.
With just seven NRL games behind him, Saab arrived at Manly searching for an opportunity on the wing.
He did that and more. The electrifying winger quickly established himself as one of the best finishers in the game, scoring an incredible 26 tries in 27 games through sheer speed, athleticism and dynamic aerial skills.
Jason's superb efforts saw him move into third place on the list of 'Most Tries in A Season' for Manly behind Tom Trbojevic's record breaking 28 tries in 2021 and Phil Blake (27 tries, 1983).
Manly's lethal back three of Tom Trbojevic, Reuben Garrick and Saab scored an incredible 77 tries in 72 games between them in 2021.
Saab was also a joint winner alongside Josh Schuster of the Club's Ken Arthurson Rising Star Award.
