Damn! he might even get close to Beaver's 349 games for the Sea (Northern) Eagles.
I've watched every Manly halfback since the early 60's and there have been some excitement machines: Phil Blake, Johnny Gibbs, Rick Chisholm, Paul Shaw, Gary Stephens, Dennis Ward, Matt Orford, Craig Field, Kevin Junee, Steve Martin, Mike Eden ... some great competitors: Geoff Toovey, Des Hasler, Johnny Mayes, Alan Thompson . . .
but DCE has to be our best overall due to his longevity, leadership and all-round ability, which includes kicking 27 field goals, most of which won us matches at clutch moments. I continue to admire his competitiveness and ability to absorb punishment without missing matches.
I hope those who occasionally knock DCE will come to realise just how great he is.
Yep, but they were worth 2pts when tries were 3pts so why wouldn't you have shots?Eric Sims has the most FGs ever with 86, who is 2nd all time?
Bob Fulton 58
unlikely…hope those who occasionally knock DCE will come to realise just how great he is.
