JACKSON Hastings may have been involved in as many as three fights at Manly.

Hastings is on the outer at the Sea Eagles after revelations of a player revolt against the utility, with coach Trent Barrett consulting the squad before playing the 22-year-old in reserve grade while the club shops him around.

Rumours surfaced last week of a fight between Hastings and skipper Daly Cherry-Evans in Gladstone with the former claiming it was nothing more than a “lovers’ tiff”.

“It was more than that, it was a fight,” NRL 360 host Paul Kent told the show on Tuesday.

“We’re now hearing it might’ve been more than one fight and we’re now hearing it might’ve been more than one player, as many as three other players involved in completely separate incidents with Jackson Hastings.”

Channel Nine reported on Tuesday that Manly had launched an investigation into a second alleged incident involving Cherry-Evans.

“Manly officials are confirming that it was another heated altercation between the pair,” the report said.

It’s not the first time Hastings has been involved in clashes with teammates and reportedly left the Sydney Roosters in similar circumstances.

“At some point, this young man has to sit down and hear some uncomfortable truths,” Kent added.

“He then has to make a decision whether he takes the advice, or whether he continues down this track that he’s happy walking down at the moment but is not a fit for the Dragons, the Roosters and the Sea Eagles so far.”

Kent believed the period where Hastings can keep getting chances at other clubs was quickly closing.

Kent recalled a bizarre story while Hastings was at the Tricolours.

“I remember talking to guys at the Roosters,” Kent said.

“He was in front of the mirror one day at the Roosters and he was flexing in his little green Speedos and he had his green mouthguard in and he announced to the dressing room he was going to be the next Conor McGregor.

“Now this is at the start of 2016 when the Roosters were 1-6 at the time.

“He was just full of this bravado about who he was and what he was doing, it was totally at odds with the reality.

“The thing that was telling, in cases like that when a young kid gets a bit ahead of himself there’s older blokes who will clip him over the ear and say ‘listen d***head, pull your head in’.”
