Fulton left the Sea Eagles during the off-season after his sisters, Kristie, was also outed from her role in administration.
Manly’s new chief executive Tony Mestrov has reportedly sparked a change in the club’s retention policy — however the move could prove costly.
The Tigers have begun inquiring about signing a number of players, including gun five-eighth Josh Schuster who has been stood down to nurse and injury and work on his fitness.
Schuster was also reportedly involved in a scrap with Dean Matterson at training, the brother of Parramatta gun Ryan Matterson.
Player agent Mario Tartak could also reportedly cause issues due to his strong relationship with the Tigers’ new recruitment manager.
The pair were instrumental in the Sea Eagles’ signing of Jason Saab, Haumole Olakau’atu and Schuster — who all hail from Sydney’s west.
Manly powerbrokers also reportedly came to blows with Tartak regarding the future of Viliame Fifita.
The young gun forward was eventually released and joined the Dragons in a swap deal for Aaron Woods.
