Put them away folks. I'd have thought after 10 years the old salts here would know better than to react to every twist and turn of the media cycle. Some of the hysteria here is like Groundhog Day.
And even if we lose both DCE and Foran I'll back our culture and the attractiveness of our location to keep a steady supply of top talent and juniors coming through. No player is bigger than the club, and very few players go on to be better anywhere else than Manly. JWH is the only one I can name in the past decade, though he is also an aggrandising dickhead and would be making more money had he stayed with us because we'd have had him pull his head in and he would attract more sponsors.
Foran and DCE would do well to take note of this. Cash isn't everything, they leave now and they will irreparably tarnish their standing in the public eye and their legacy. Particularly when it becomes apparent how replaceable they are in our system.
Finally, I can't wait to watch the train wreck that will be the Watmough Show at the Eels.
