The Daly Cherrygraph

We usually let him play until it completely tears. I’d say tightness is only a couple of weeks rest. I honestly think Tom should only play for max 50 mins a game. Rest him for the first 15 bring him on and take him back off with 20 to go. Almost like a quarterback plays. Protect him against himself

Interesting. Maybe seibs should get one of his analysts to work out how many of turbo's great moves come in the final 10-15 min of each half?
Don't even need to replace him, just hide him in a less demanding spot when his body starts creaking?

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Gotta say its time we came to terms with the reality that Tom's body will not hold up to 80 minutes at fullback week after week. He played well for NSW and Australia in the Centres. We just need him on the field wherever he is and this rigidness about him playing fullback is just reproducing the same outcomes. Hoppa to fullback and when Tommy returns I'd pick him at centre and move Rueben back to the wing. The problem with our Jekyll and Hyde forwards is problematic but last night they were gassed after we kept turning over cheap possession and and started conceding six agains. Our backs were the culprits in the first half turning over cheap possession as our execution was poor.

Back to the thread title, I really felt sorry for Cherry last night. I believe if anyone could've got us a win with 7 mins to go it would be him and he bravely tried to overcome the pain and stay on but it was too much. He looks after himself (he has to at his age) and prides himself on his fitness and to see him grimacing like that was sad. I hope he can get back to Sydney without too much discomfort, get appropriate treatment be back on the field sooner rather than later.

LATEST: DCE should be sweet for next weekend after corked calf left him running differently, which increased load through his hips/back

‘There was no impact injury — and no sniper in crowd’

Tommy Turbo had tightness in lower back/left hammy — going for scans🤞🦅

 

[ALinda]

From the SMH:

"Cherry-Evans, however, told this masthead after he had touched down in Sydney on Saturday that he suffered a cork to his calf, which later caused tightness in his back.

“I picked up a cork in the first five or 10 minutes, I was running a bit differently, and as a result the back and hips were being overloaded,” Cherry-Evans said.

“That’s as simple as it was. There was no impact injury. But I’ll be very surprised if I’m not playing next week.”

Coach Anthony Seibold said on Saturday: “Tommy has a little bit of tightness through his lower back and left hammy, but the medical staff aren’t too concerned. He’ll get a scan on Sunday to be certain with everything.

“And ‘Chez’ pulled up pretty good. Both of them have. There are no real concerns; it’s precautionary with ‘Turbo’ and we want to make sure we know what we’re dealing with.”

Phew...

Looks like he did his back. He'll be ok in a few days, always happens to me 😔

I should of scrolled down haha

That's great news but I'm still not sure about Tommy. I think hoppa will be playing FB next weekend.

Dce and Turbo should definitely have the week off. Or two weeks.
We do not need either of these two injured for weeks on end if they try and play next weekend and properly hurt themselves
Dce is 36. Back spasms means he needs to get back and let the area settle down and then rehab do core etc and get this right.
Turbo has serious history. Tightness is one step from a tear. Get back, settle it down as well then strength and rehab, core etc and come back 100 percent

Honest question: Is Turbo ever 100% these days? Will he ever be 100% again?

Don't get me wrong - 85% of Turbo is probably good enough. But he will always be one step from a tear (hammy or pec) or some other injury.

There's never a wrong time to rest him, but there's never a right time to rest him either. In a sport where nobody knows who Kafka is, it's still a Kafkaesque nightmare.

If both are fit enough to play v raiders, they should both be on the field. And exactly Tom never seems to be 100% fit. Also in our favor is the 10day turn around. Lighten both their loads at training and play em Sunday.

 

[ALinda]

Trbojevic and skipper Daly Cherry-Evans (back spasms) will both be monitored this week after being forced from the field in Friday’s loss to the Warriors.

Sea Eagles coach Anthony Seibold confirmed on Sunday morning that precautionary scans came back positive for Manly’s two most influential figures, with both Trbojevic and Cherry-Evans expected to be available for Sunday’s home game against Canberra.

Rothfield reporting another club interested in DCE, I think he definitely stays.

Which NRL club is closely monitoring Daly Cherry-Evans’ contract situation at the Manly Sea Eagles. CEO Tony Mestrov wants to offer DCE a one-year deal on reduced terms at this late stage of his career. The rival club will offer two years and more cash.

Newcastle are going to offer him a 5 year contract to help Dylan out 😆

Not such a bad idea lolol. A halves pairing of DCE & Brown!!!

 

[Loyal Eagle]

Dolphins - but why would he, unless wanted to relocate the family to QLD. More than likely expect a move into an assist coaching role and media. DCE can do all this based on the northern beaches?

‘$500k haircut’: DCE’s bid for two-year Manly extension as rival club ‘whisper’ emerges

Sounds like the manager of DCE has gone to the media after initial discussions with Mestrov.

I would have thought 700K a season would be reasonable for both parties, very short on halves at the moment and if Joey Walsh is the successor maybe he needs another year or two with DCE.

The club did a great job in getting Hoppas extension done without any external noise, speaks volumes on Hoppa and his management group in the way that was done and now the club captains next deal is getting played out with the media is somewhat disappointing.

If I was DCE's Manager I would tell Mestrov the so called Manly Barber that we are not here to negotiate a $500k haircut . We are here for just a trim around the edges . Like $875K a season and thats not Negotiable.
Just like Mestrov wont be able to Negotiate with any other experienced elite halfs simply because they are not available .
Brooks is definitely not the answer and the young up and coming blokes are not ready.
The contract value is all about supply and demand and DCE has the Cards to dominate on the negotiating table

 

[JakeyB789]

Need to hold our ground here. We shouldn't at all be paying a 37/38 year old that kind of money when we are somewhat competing for a title and have other obvious holes in the roster that need fixing. That extra 300-400k could go towards a hooker/front rower/second rower and put us closer towards a premiership which DCE himself has talked about wanting another before retiring, time to put his money where his mouth is.

If he really wants another $1m so badly that he'll move his family at this point in his career, end up at a worse club like Dolphins/Titans/Dragons etc and potentially stain his legacy here, then let him do it. We may have let multiple potential replacements go over the last few years to accommodate him, and we keep hearing how far away Walsh is from being ready, but I think people forget that we'd have an extra million bucks in the cap to spend. We'd figure it out.
