I have zero interest in celebrating anything for DCE.

I won't boo him, but I also won't cheer him.

It's disgraceful what he's done to the club, if it really is in response to not getting a shiny new big $ contract &/or his opinion of the coach. Very unprofessional attitude.
 
As hard as it is to swallow, let’s just give DCE his flowers and act like the classy supporter base we are. Golf claps all around.

There will be time to boo him when he runs out in roosters colours against us next year.
This ^^^^ 100%

We’ll be looked on by the wider community as ****ing idiots if we don’t, and rightly so.
 
You know looking back at this sad & sorry 4-5 months what an absolute PR disaster this has been for the Dollar Chaser.

For a start , I get he was pissed he didn’t get a big money offer , and I get he might have been pissed that Seibold got an extension.

BUT, whoever advised him on his actions ( I assume his manager ) needs a rocket up their clacker.

How different would this be.

1) Sorry D$E no extension this time the club wants to move forward.

2) no worries it was always going to come to an end sometime.

3) I’m going to put everything into my last year , giving the fans a farewell they can rejoice about.

4) then ( secretly ) does a deal with the roosters , which in a mutual way is kept hush hush.

5) continues on through the year ( who knows where we may have ended up ) and finishes celebrating his 350th and record game for the club , and on the last game a record attendance farewelling a club legend.

6) then after the dust settles the Roosters announce they’ve signed him for 2 years etc etc.

He goes out a winner at the club he’s been at for 15 years.

He gets his big dollars and retirement nest egg

And everyone is pretty happy.

Compare the pair , this V what’s transpired.

He’s now being ridiculed by all & sundry and is the subject of some pretty nasty journo stories and will leave the club mostly hated and the cherry on top ( pun intended ) a miserable 350th celebration.

You just have to say , he has ****ed this whole situation up monumentally.

An EPIC **** UP one could say.

He walks away as a pariah ( for many).

Absolutely 101 in NOT how to handle your retirement / moving on.

100%!

However, many here will tell you DCE had every right to do all of this because he doesn't rate Seibold as a coach.
