[Smokin Joe]

So be it,time to move on.......

 

[AndWeDon'tCare]

Manly did not low-ball… they simply did not offer… until tonight!

FMD…

Was this straight from DCE's mouth?

 

[ABTK]

Next..!

 

[bob dylan]

Cock-a-doodle-doo.

 

[eaglebuzz]

He is coming across as absolutely full of s#!t tonight. He must absolutely despise management to carry on in this way.

Either way I'd rather he just goes, hopefully with a second premiership. 15 years is long enough for this circus to play out.

 

[frank stokes]

Was this straight from DCE's mouth?

Yep

 

[rj90]

Was this straight from DCE's mouth?

Yes. First offer was tonight and he heard via NRL360.

 

[Scorpio]

Manly wouldn’t offer him anything unless another club did first. Fkn disgrace from all involved at the Club.

It is Round 3... if true, why does the club need to have an offer on the table right now?

Why can they not take the pragmatic approach of seeing how he continues to play as a 36-year old before making a decision?

 

[AndWeDon'tCare]

Yes. First offer was tonight and he heard via NRL360.

Wow.

Just wow.

Okay then.

 

[Coops manly]

Where are all the dce defenders now?? What a joke!

 

[conanu]

Always a effing drama with this idiot. He is completely full of BS his word salad is proof of that obviously another Club has come in with a massive offer and he’s pretending that it’s somehow Manly‘s fault. He’s an absolute dog of a human. I’d be happy if he left now he’s a jerk. robbed the club for years on a ridiculous contract. He is such a liar, its rubbish you’ve got another deal just admit it.

 

[eaglebuzz]

This is all just laying the groundwork for him to announce that he's going to the Roosters later in the season. Possibly the Dolphins but my money is on the Roosters.

 

[joeboy]

it’s a funny one, either dce is a slimy sneaky prick or the powers that be at our club are completely incompetent. Neither are a great look for the club.

In gobsmacked a club captain would behave like this .

He needs to be stripped of his captaincy. Watch him go into origin self preservation mode.

 

[frank stokes]

I called it… Manly did not show him the respect so he has made the decision that they don’t value him so goodbye…

Respect is more important than money…

Club Captain, Origin and Test Player in career best form. Why wouldn’t we want to lock him in?

 

[AndWeDon'tCare]

Did he, by any chance, say that his manager NOT HIM, had reviewed the initial discussions held back in January 2025 where a position was placed to DCE to consider for 2026 and 2027?

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Manly did not low-ball… they simply did not offer… until tonight!

FMD…

Perhaps they were under the impression it was not going to be a bidding war.

 

[Eagles4Life]

Yes. First offer was tonight and he heard via NRL360.

What a load of ****. DCE has lost me with this absolute garbage he is spewing right now.

 

[AndWeDon'tCare]

Yes. First offer was tonight and he heard via NRL360.

That would be the first time he's listened or watched that show, it must have been his manager who informed him of the "offer" that was broadcast on TV.

 

[frank stokes]

Right here… club making first offer tonight is f*cking embarrassing for Manly…
