What the hell is he talking about? I like to think that as a culture we have a lot stronger connection to ex players than most other clubs. DCE looks like being the exception to the rule, and the only fault the club has is being responsible to a salary cap that means we cannot offer a 2 year multi million dollar contract to a 37 year old half back.https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sp...ata-can-boost-competitiveness/?obOrigUrl=true
NRL legend Wally Lewis has slammed Manly’s club culture and the attempts to drag Daly Cherry-Evans’ name through the mud.
Fark off.
Wally was hardly the epitome of team harmony at both club & test level. What was it they say about people in glass houses....What the hell is he talking about?

Wally is probably basing his views on what happened to his great friend Paul Vautin. Fatty had to leave Manly after he was on $90k & (after a poor 1989) only offered him $50k for the next season. The Roosters took him on, but he was never the same & retired after 2 years at the chooks.https://www.theaustralian.com.au/sp...ata-can-boost-competitiveness/?obOrigUrl=true

No mate - spoke directly to Wally about this and it was the Qld Chief Executive at the time Ron McCauliffe who stopped the move....he was keen to come, as was MilesHe is a good one to talk, didnt he and Gene Miles sign with us back in the day and then backflipped on us

Maybe he's just filthy that he never got to play for the mighty Sea Eagles.No mate - spoke directly to Wally about this and it was the Qld Chief Executive at the time Ron McCauliffe who stopped the move....he was keen to come, as was Miles
He was pretty disappointed after being blocked from the move and all these years later, seemed frustrated.Maybe he's just filthy that he never got to play for the mighty Sea Eagles.
