With our full squad all in form we should have made the top 4 and been a big chance..
Seriously DCE derailed the season after 4 rounds and we were looking good.
Then the injuries hit and continued to hit. And so did the teams confidence and belief.
They really missed an opportunity in 2025...
I just couldn't stop thinking how different the reception Foz got from his team mates compared to DCE.. and Foz had only been there a couple of years.
Really showed the admiration and respect the other players held for Foz as a player and a person.
DCE got a few pats on the back and...
To be fair to the club the year we signed his extension Saab was killing it.. and full of confidence.. he's the quickest guy in the game and speed is a massive asset.
He also has height and had put on some size leading most to believe he should or at least could become an elite winger.
He's...
Frankly I couldn't care less.. I just want him to play well and lead Manly to victories. What he does and how he is in his personal life are his business..
The best in all sports have a certain character arrogance and are not always as socially welcoming away from their sport.
Unless it's with...
I'm not saying he's not a club legend
What i am saying is will he be remembered as a club legend .. sadly I think not.. certainly to me
And I was one of his biggest fans just look at my top 10 memories.. 12 if you include the off field crap that no doubt every Manly supporter will remember for...
Yeah I agree but it's simply way too hard to not go past the way he's conducted himself when it came to his contract negotiations when your asked to pin point your memories of DCE "D$E" and his 15 years at Manly..
A great player.. no doubt
A club legend..doubtful and all because of his contract...
Mine in order of how they rank to me.
12- His tackle on Big NAS.. one on one 2 meters out at a huge moment in the game.
11- His multiple game winning field goals, too many to mention but undeniably one of the greatest at putting them through the posts with either foot.
10- His debut...
(we...
Good on the kid...nothing like a good day's work too understand the reality of actually having to earn your $$$.. and if he's been doing this since he was 15 then even better.
500k and a coaching job for 1.5million that's easy done
So technically the Rorters being the rorters they always are.
Suddenly there's talk they sign D$E for $500k and a car..hahaha.. yeah right but he's also got a coaching gig that's not under the 2027 cap.
And they pay him an undisclosed...
That made my day. Ron E. Gibbs. I just pictured the team of fairies we have running out wearing those shorts in Maroon with sparkles..
( not that there is anything wrong with that)
I could see Seibs wearing a pair of Elton's glasses..
But yeah. The song is a banger 😂
And ...
"really proud of the boys effort, our "Weapons" just didn't get going and they are a really good team" 😂🤣
Sorry Seibs but I've heard enough, I've backed you for 4 seasons now.
Same old same old
