Lussick let rip at Barrett before taking Toronto lifeline

[Mitch]

Manly are eyeing off Canterbury utility Fa’amanu Brown to ensure they never have to select Jackson Hastings in first grade again as details emerge of another heated blow up involving a player the club sought to move on.

Fairfax Media revealed that Daly Cherry-Evans was facing sanctions for his role in a series of incidents with Hastings, with the club confirming on Saturday they had slapped their skipper with a $10,000 fine. Cherry-Evans escaped a suspension and will take his place against Parramatta at ANZ Stadium on Sunday, while Hastings was banished to the Manly's feeder team, the Blacktown Workers who took on Wyong at Berkeley Oval on Saturday.

The altercation between Hastings and Cherry-Evans has dominated headlines this week, but it is not the only issue involving a player the club wanted to squeeze out. Fairfax Media can reveal prop Darcy Lussick had a furious row with Trent Barrett about the coach’s decision not to pick him in first grade.

How Good is Lyal Gorman, where are you. The joint is f#cked and where are you, on a kiwi junket

As soon as I see that poor excuse for a journos name at the head of a column I become suspicious of its accuracy.
Remembering he was the jub who wrote that dessie had re signed with Manly the very day he left.
Nonetheless I was of the belief that even if we release players we are still responsible for the majority of their contract payments I.e. big head Myles.
So what is the benefit of releasing them if we've still got to pay them?
We would only be able to replace them with like for like players.
And then have to pay them too.
F*cked if I know.

The only thing any of us know for sure ?

We are never going to get the whole story.
What do they say ?
There are 3 sides to every argument.....mine, yours and the truth.

I've given up trying to work it out. Just beat the Slime.....please !

Just what we need, another pea heart Islander playing reserve grade for the dogs

 

[Pepi]

Lussick was garbage for most of his time at Manly. Shouldn't have signed him in the first place.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

What role does Lussick Senior play at the club?

Wasn’t he a security guard?

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

So, now we get another week of crap and Darcy becomes the Messiah mark 2, just what we ****ing need!!

 

[Kalvin]

If this story is true it sounds like the inmates are running tge asylum and the coach/management has lost control! We sound like a shambles... i think the proof will be in tomorrow's pudding!

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

If it’s true, surely Jason Lussick should be dismissed?

I get the impression that Barrett might be trying to ‘de-Fultonise’ the joint. More power to him, if that’s the case.

And let’s hope that Neil Bare never darkens the pre-fab corridors of Narrabeen again.

 

[Scorpio]

Doesn't matter how exaggerated or embellished the story is. It's open season for the media against Manly at the moment.

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Another one of Bob’s brilliant initiatives comes home to roost.

 

[EaglesDontTweet]

At least it's all a bit of a distraction from the salary cap drama. You know we might just scrape through all of this fairly unscathed.

 

[God]

I think it's great we released lussick to maybe sign a guy that's not as good as hastings with the money we get from a front rower who we are not replacing from the the dogs, I mean what could go wrong.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

I think it's great we released lussick to smaug we sign a guy that's not as good as hastings with the money we get from a front rower who we are not replacing, I mean what could go wrong.

Clever!!

 

[God]

Typos galore....

I blame judus or turning to much water into bourbon again

 

[Jigzkiller]

If it’s true, surely Jason Lussick should be dismissed?

Penn let the clown Ferris keep his job after his actions last year so don't hold your breath. I had high hopes for Gorman but I'm afraid he appears to be missing in action also.

 

[Brocky]

So, now we get another week of crap and Darcy becomes the Messiah mark 2, just what we ****ing need!!

Toovey must be laughing at this. The culture has gone and Barrett has no skills to pull this together. DCE being the captain Getting fined where are his leadership skills?

 

[weev]

One could think the puppet master behind all this is Greenturd, but surely he could not be so omniscient.

Are we missing a Fulton? And I don’t mean Scott?
