The Daly Cherrygraph

[mickqld]

DCE [paraphrased] I want to play on. Just not with Manly. Of course I have nothing against the club, I just don't want to play with them ever again. And won't, as soon as my contract is finished I'm gone! (But yes I'll keep playing with Qld, I enjoy and love playing for Qld)
Oh yeah, and there's now a smear campaign against me. I won't say who it's from, but you all know where it's coming from (laughing bitterly)

You're right about one thing though Bear, he hasn't attacked the fans.

Well the fans are giving it to him in spades on social media so I'd say he's gearing up for a well placed fu*k you to us as well in the form of here , choke on these losses.

Ive always felt the FB group was heavily modded to only allow nice things to be said at all times, but it has turned big time on DCE, and Seibold also to an extent. Finally refreshing to read all opinions instead of only the positives - it was always like listening to a Seibold press conference.

 

[Jimmie]

DCE knew exactly where he was going when he appeared on channel 9…shook hands with the roosters late last year but no contract signed then ,as the roosters needed to clear the decks first. Stating I don’t know where I’ll be 2026 but it won’t be at manly was disrespectful to the manly fans who have supported him through out his career when he knew exactly where he was going.He should have been straight with the fans and if you couldn’t talk about the roosters contract say nothing till you could.i have no issue with him going to the roosters it’s a business and you need to look after your family and no doubt the deal will be better their than the sea eagles could ever offer .

PISS WEAK ....seem like spoony is reluctant to make any big calls not matter how big the issue in front of him.

Of course Seibold has his weaknesses, as do most humans (with the exception of some silvertails) but I don't really have any concerns that he is not prepared to make any big calls.

• Allowing Fifita (forget his first name) and the other promising junior prop (also forget his name) to go in return for Woods
• Allowing Latu and Samuela to leave
• Pissing Schu off to cut our losses
• Signing unfashionable half Brooks to play 5/8
• Selecting Lehi when there may have been barely a solitary Silvertail saying he's ready for 1st grade
• Pushing Jake up to prop from the lock spot he's held for yonks

All of those examples were quite big calls and he's made others, such as putting backs on the bench.
I'd say the bulk of those have been shown to be good calls in hindsight.

What he does about the DCE situation (assuming there is a DCE situation, which I think most here believe) he won't put his head in the sand. It's probably such a big deal that he'll be in close consultation not only with his assistants but also with Mestrov and quite possibly with any mentors he still has from his other situations.

Will he get it right? I have no idea!!
But I'm confident he's aware of the situation, smart enough to know when a club has the serious wobbles, and he's not shy to make big calls. His own career as well as Manly's season might be riding on it?

I said six weeks ago that we were interested,” Robinson said.



“We haven’t had any discussions since then with management, and that’s still the case.

“The freeing up (of salary cap space) is about building the best squad we can possibly build. We’re in negotiations with three of our guys that are already under contracts – some of the younger guys – so it’s always a mix of both.

“We’ve recruited Reece from outside for next year, and there is an interest there (for Cherry-Evans).

He should have told Manly management privately that he won't be taking up the offer and he would be leaving, they would have kept it quiet until his new deal was signed because it served no purpose to hang him out to dry and also would have given them time to go into the market for someone else. Instead he went on ch9 without the clubs knowledge and caused a circus around it. Destroying his legacy in the process and carrying on about the club not respecting him enough?? Give me a break, club has over paid him for 13 years and let how many decent players go to manage our stupid over blown salary cap. I actually can't wait till he is gone.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Be funny as all buggery if the Roosters withdraw their verbal offer and he has to retire without another contract.

That would be “ karma 101”.

**** on your nest, go out with most of the fans despising you , leave with the club that gave you everything completely offside yep, karma indeed.

Problem is Penn would probably re sign him. Penn has form and its all bad

 

[IQofalimabean]

If the chooks want him early they can take him.

D$E made it public due to the $$$ he got paid to do so , he again put money before his team and the club. its a big Farrrk you all statement , my God is money

 

[Stevo]

I would really appreciate it if everyone would use $CE instead of DCE and Dollar Chasing Evans instead of Daly Cherry Evans from now on.

Most Fans Despising DCE ??
At the Ground on Game day there are no Boos for DCE
The only Boos come from Boo...fheads like you 🙂

**** on your Club captain and Mestrov will be despised by Manly fans that Like DCE and there are Many of them that do
I can assure you that DCE has a Bigger fan club at Manly than Mestrov ever had and ever will

No club gives any player anything if the are not worth it
The Manly Club are accountable for giving DCE what Elite halves are worth
If you are not happy with that DCE long term Deal
Give it to the Club is you want to vent your Dissatisfaction and not DCE

As for you hoping that the DCE Roosters Verbal contract will fall through
Again you have no idea .
DCE has a $mart Manager and and he knows Verbal Contracts are Legally Binding

Always nice exchanging passionate Manly views feathered friend @Mark from Brisbane
It is also Always nice to have a Balance of of Views on this forum
Instead of just one way Preposterous Perspective opinions

 

[Brookie1973]

DCE has always been a 5/8, with a 7 on his back.....actually would have been an even better 9, but I digress.

I cant see any scenario where he is a better halfback than Cronk, especially in terms of a

Of course Seibold has his weaknesses, as do most humans (with the exception of some silvertails) but I don't really have any concerns that he is not prepared to make any big calls.

I’d say player managers had more to do with most of those player movements that Seibold. I’m pretty sure there were plenty of raps on Lehi before he debuted. Moving Jake was well overdue and had been called for on here long before it happened. Not sure the coach should get credit for finally acting on the bleeding obvious.

If the coach gets credit for making player moves, does he also get the blame for non-moves such as navale and burbo, persisting with Garrick at centre which now looks like costing us a genuine centre in TT, persisting with a 3 man bench rotation despite our obvious forwards shortcomings, and playing Jake for long minutes at front row when he is clearly gassed?

It makes you wonder why a player would not want to play for a club
It makes you wonder who started that Smear campaign at the club
It makes you wonder why DCE didnt want to have a Bar standing along side Mestrov in any of his solo press conferences .

Last but not least about the fans
DCE would have a Bigger Manly fan club than Mestrov and Penn collectively

 

[Damien2812]

Didn't watch the Sharks game but hearing again this guy isn't putting in and again taking poor options. The club needs to make a stance and remove the captaincy or demot him to NSW cup.

 

[BOZO]

Isnt it so great that we have balance in this forum ?
Isnt it great we have fair representation ?
Isnt it great we have Inclusivity , Objectivity and Avoiding Bias
Isnt it Great that we have Manly Passionate views
Have a Great Day Feathered friends

If they are interested and haven’t signed him why haven’t they had discussions with his management over the past 6 weeks? Only reason I can think of is that they had already signed him 6 weeks ago.

It does not matter who signed him or when they signed him
What matters is for every one to comprehend and accept that players come and go
No one will be at the club for ever
What matters is that we are all playing for one purpose , One Manly club and One premiership Winning Dream
Premiership Trophy's are won together as a Team
Lets get behind each other and Create an Immortal Premiership Winning Manly team
Wake up Manly !!!
