    Agree Mark. I i’m sure to outsiders we look like stupid whingeing Manly fans throwing a tantrum, but to us its like watching a re-run of a bad movie. I think the reason why we are so quick to say the season is lost is because it’s rinse and repeat of the last couple of seasons. We haven’t...

    it pains me to write this because it’s so cliche and probably what the media are gonna say, but I think DCE is playing in a dinner suit since he announced that he’s leaving. And I’ve seen his intensity drop off as far as rushing to get to the Ball and he just doesn’t seem to wind up his players...

    You can see even the media is fed up with talking about DCE, Mestrov stopping discussion about it was a masterstroke, because the clubs narrative is out now and solid, so they don't need to talk anymore. DCE needs the circus and the more he carries on the more he will look bad. The media is...

    Voss commentary

    Voss is just a negative mindset commentator. He will wax lyrical about all the reasons tries are not tries instead of celebrating the fact that someone has done the impossible and managed to score against all odds. He then brings his commentary partner into the same mindset. Its really poor.

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    450k was only a minimum figure, if the player doesn't accept that amount then it is irrelevant, whatever they are paid goes on the cap. Glen Stewart would have took Manly's hand off for that amount in his final years, but DCE's big contract forced him to Souths.

    Is Mestrov really our Messiah?

    I think everyone would have been happy to see DCE finish his career at Manly, but only on a reasonable contract. Its clear to anyone that DCE is not the guy that takes unders for the team, he never has and never will. He believes he is worth more and that is his right. Nobody has an issue with...

    Yes they were, It more than likely cost Toovey his job also, because Tooves backed DCE, Gifty was forced out and poor Tooves lost the dressing room because of it. DCE for all the talk isn't Cleary or Cronk. He has excelled in Origin and can perform in big games that's why he has this reputation...

    No DCE upset the older players by agitating for an upgrade immediately rather than earning the right. That put him off with everyone especially the older guys like Kite, King, Gifty etc that were on poor money but gave everything. DCE turned up into a gun side at their prime and immediately...

    This is all true, however the result remains the same, no premiership. Unfortunately he is not Nathan Cleary and he is 37. He can't get the job done and to your point, one of those variables was that it probably because due to his contract we haven't been a balanced side for 11 years.

    Managers are lying for DCE so his reputation is at arms length. DCE would be aware but would be kept far enough out of the loop so he is protected. Its obvious they were always going to market and he was leaving but gave Manly the run around to frustrate them into leaving him alone to decide...

    The Daly Cherrygraph

    DCE knows exactly what he is doing, he is actually a master negotiator. He showed with his own contract and in his role in negotiations for the RLPA that he is willing to go all in and risk everyone hating him to get his preferred outcome, DCE will roll around in the mud with pigs if he needs...

    Always a effing drama with this idiot. He is completely full of BS his word salad is proof of that obviously another Club has come in with a massive offer and he’s pretending that it’s somehow Manly‘s fault. He’s an absolute dog of a human. I’d be happy if he left now he’s a jerk. robbed the...

    Mate i am definitely not a Penn fan. But if you think DCE has given plenty to the club you don’t realise he has been overpaid by Manly for 2/3rds of his contract. DCE is a great player and a good person but he is 100% transactional, he goes to the highest bidder in every contract, he shows zero...

    No, just the club trying not to overspend on the only player in the nrl that was born in the 1980’s. It will be portrayed as Manlys fault either way. If he re signs we will be called idiots for overpaying him like we were for the 8 year contract and if he goes we will be called idiots for...

    No chance, he will milk every last cent out of origin if they pick him. He plays for money and the highest bidder, always has, we have just been the club willing to pay the most and give him the longest deals.

    DCE looks after DCE. Although we have got our value out of him for the last 4 years as he has played to his money & potential, coincidentally these years were after we paid him ridiculous overs whilst he played average for us in his previous 8 year contract. Now on the way out it seems as though...

    Ben 'Burbo' Trbojevic

    He is a very good bench player, but not showing lately that he is a starting edge back rower. But is more than handy as a bench forward that can cover centre. The rest Wadell, Condon, Bullimore are pure garbage and need to be moved on.

    Croker Creativity

    Yeah I probably should have used the title ‘we need a good sidekick for Croker’ I wasn’t saying his creativity is a problem more that we need someone to complement him and his style. I really like him as a player and his contribution to the team is huge both on and off the field by all accounts...
