Your right he was in a cubicle...a toilet cubicle.
He was very busy knocking the top off it.

Living in the demountable.
Here is a question about DCE and the Tits - I imagine now the NRL is running the club, they would have to have some form of arms lengths dealings with any signings, as they couldn't be seen to be prejudicing any other clubs by say offering overs or topping up contracts or they'd leave themselves open to a lawsuit. So what they could offer would have to be deemed market. They couldn't pay 1.2M a year unless they could justify that cost and if you think about the calibre of player making that in the NRL, DCE is not there. He'd be more say 700K tops. Add that to the general stink on the club and they'd have to be out.

Perhaps we have signed Foran and let DCE go. It makes sense if we have now found extra money for Matai and are chasing Taumololo
Not sure who is going to play half back in 2016 though as Seizer isn't a half back. Manaia Thompson?

However, despite his glaring issues with Manly, he has loyalty to them. Although I said Manly have given up on him, they still hold hope he will take their final offer. His concern over the Eagles is their aging roster.
Financially, we have been the front runner all along, and our offer plus third party was just greater than the Titans. I am told that he was originally wanting to go to the Gold Coast so he didn't cop the crap from jumping ship to a Sydney team, but I am told that they made a horrible pitch to him.
They spent more time convincing his wife how glamorous the GC was and how much opportunity there was for the family that they forgot to talk football and prospects, which have now sadly gone in the hands of the NRL.
The opportunity for DCE at the Sharks is huge. The corporate opportunity and marketing of the new development would be endless, as well as up coming sponsors, membership campaigns ect ect, plus a lot of Shire businesses are putting their hand up to help out providing they get a kick back.
Wear a hat here, wear a shirt their ect ect.
Plus, the opportunity to be the first halfback leading the Sharks to a premiership is on his mind, and doing it with his best mate is the attraction.
No one is fooling themselves here, if he signs, we are a premiership shot.
I have been told that the only hick up at the moment is the T&C's on a few third party agreements before he will put pen to paper, but in the mean time he has gone back to Manly and kept them in the loop.
My main mail feeling is he will be a Shark, but it won't be a decision he has made easily.

Maybe the sharks have offered him a unit in the new development over looking the swamp
The sharks are identical to norths. No matter who plays for them the loser curse will ensure that they never win a competition.
They haven't had any centres since Steve Rogers retired and their forward pack replies on gallen and Fifi who is a loose cannon.
ET went ok particularly with his team mates missus

Plus the peptides and coke will do wonders for his game. F..k me all these people in the know who've quoted DCE, must be a lot of mates DCE trusts with his words.

Yep-that is my genuine fear. He has had a mighty good football team around him as well. Even when he burst on the scene I thought he had huge potential, when a lot on here bagged him. But he has a ways to go yet-playing with a rabble like GC or the sharks will certainly test his "gun player" status.
Not if he could somehow raise his game & play like Uncle Steve...

how many comps did he win
