The Legacy of Foran, Kite, Ballin, Watmough,Lyon,Stewart Bros, Matai helped DCE win that Premiership in 2011. Yes DCE did play his part, but many sacrifices were made by his teammates to make this happen and the fact they already won one with the same core group of guys a few years back made it seem likely that his contribution was somewhat exaggerated by other posters like yourselfLegacy did win DCE a premiership feathered friend
He also won best player in a Losing Grand final . If all his team mates followed suit they would have won the game .
Legacy also earned him the captaincy and other achievement that no other player in our squad has earned
We all do things that we get something out of
DCE is no different
With regards to the 2013 GF you say we were beaten by a much better team on paper .The Legacy of Foran, Kite, Ballin, Watmough,Lyon,Stewart Bros, Matai helped DCE win that Premiership in 2011.

With regards to the 2013 GF, we were beaten hands down by a much better team on paper.
And instantly they become the Perth Pears!Here's something out of left field, $$'s goes West to the Perth Bears ..
Just sayin'..
.
You are right my friend - he was brilliant that day.With regards to the 2013 GF you say we were beaten by a much better team on paper .
DCE won the Clive Churchill best player on the ground medal that day . He was Better than all the better team on paper players . That is no exaggeration by me or any poster on here
Yeah, what I don't understand is him burning his bridges. Probably no chance of him ever coming back in some sort of capacity, coaching role, etc, to Manly.This year is gone. I’m ok with that…
Only half a season till this pretender is gone.
Been captain for a decade and lead us to zero, that’s a fact. Couldn’t give a sh!t about his so called personal achievements.
He’s divided fans and players for far too long. On his last game I’ll celebrate with a 18yr rum ……….. because he’s gone! Lol
I’m so so excited for a new era and to close the sorry ,sad ,greedy , dividing story of D$E.
I do wonder what the fanboi’s will do though? 😜 calm down , just winding you up…..
Don't be so sure. Even Des came backYeah, what I don't understand is him burning his bridges. Probably no chance of him ever coming back in some sort of capacity, coaching role, etc, to Manly.
100%Don't be so sure. Even Des came back
He said it wasn't about the money. Clearly he has the ****s with the club and/or some individual(s) and was prepared to sabotage our season and screw his teammates to make his pointKarma will be a bitch if he’s knocked back $750k for two years at Manly , and doesn’t get an offer anywhere.
That would be excruciatingly delightful wouldn’t it.
Well it’s worked hasn’t it !!He said it wasn't about the money. Clearly he has the ****s with the club and/or some individual(s) and was prepared to sabotage our season and screw his teammates to make his point
Yes @Mark from Brisbane but has it worked for the dollar chaser? I can't think of anyone else in our history who has arrogantly destroyed their own legacy and cemented their role as one of the most reviled figures in MWSE history. And for what?Well it’s worked hasn’t it !!
Nope , the perfect example of how to **** up and amazing career , with the finish line in sightYes @Mark from Brisbane but has it worked for the dollar chaser? I can't think of anyone else in our history who has arrogantly destroyed their own legacy and cemented their role as one of the most reviled figures in MWSE history. And for what?
It’s either,Surely he can admit ,his time in the NRL is done.
Choc went closeYes @Mark from Brisbane but has it worked for the dollar chaser? I can't think of anyone else in our history who has arrogantly destroyed their own legacy and cemented their role as one of the most reviled figures in MWSE history. And for what?
