Frank Ponissi, the football chief of the Melbourne Storm, has firmly dismissed rumors linking him to the Manly Sea Eagles.
Despite reports suggesting that Manly was interested in him following Anthony Seibold's dismissal, Ponissi made it clear that he has no plans to leave Melbourne.
Sources indicated that the Sea Eagles were targeting Ponissi, a figure of significant influence in the Storm organization, which is notable considering he hails from Manly himself.
Nonetheless, any advances made by the Sea Eagles appear to have been ignored.
Ponissi expressed his confusion regarding the speculation, emphasizing that he views it as baseless.
He has been a part of Melbourne since 2007 and is firmly committed to the club until 2029, reinforcing his dedication to the Storm.
