The Sea Eagles have confirmed the signing of emerging forward Ethan Bullemor on a three-year deal.

Bullemor had a year to run on his deal with the Broncos but was released last month, allowing him to join an exciting pack at Manly.

Sea Eagles coach Des Hasler spoke about the Queenslander following the announcement.

"Ethan is a very highly promising player who will add another dimension to our strong forward pack," Hasler said.

"He is only young and still has plenty to learn but Ethan certainly has the talent and ability to succeed."

Bullemor played 25 NRL games with Brisbane following his debut in 2020, including 17 appearances this year for Walters' side.

It's understood Brisbane would've liked to keep him, however couldn't guarantee Bullemor a regular spot in their starting 17 next season with the emergence of Jordan Riki, TC Robati and Brendan Piakura.

He joins Manly following confirmation forwards Curtis Sironen, Jack Gosiewski and Zac Saddler would be departing the club.

Following his release from the Broncos, head of football Ben Ikin said Bullemor

"Ethan has been presented with a good opportunity elsewhere and we wish him all the best as he moves on to a new challenge," Ikin said.

"Our club is making decisions for the long-term good of the playing roster and we have seen some players depart as part of that process.

"In terms of balance, we have also signed and extended more than 20 players in recent months at the Broncos."
