I don't know anymore, would you risk that with his history? It's killed us every year. panthers mate and he told me that even at his best Penrith wouldn't want him as he eats up too much cap. Dylan E was half the price.
The real premiership window - 2027 onwards
- Thread starter Rocky
- Start date
Sure the Panthers may not, but there would be minimum half a dozen if not more that would.
In fact I think he would easily beat his current contract if off now

Dylan 's manager is apparently asking or expecting one mil plus now and he is a good player but not that good
Expectation that D C E may well go around next year in any case .
Talk that Joey Walsh is being elevated to Manly Reggies as a 7 once he fully recovers from his recent illness and a bit of footy under his belt for 25 so may well be ready to take over in i st grade in a couple of years if not sooner

Think that i noticed that Dylan Edwards was asking for around the 700 - 750 K for an upgraded contract around mis season or so and with his current S O O rating as a full back could have even expected a bit more .
Is he the same bloke that keeps emailing me????
I have sent him so much info so he can get the $US2.7 billion i am owed. This week alone I have sent my bank account number, credit card details including expiry and CCV, copy if my drivers licence, my passport, my medicare number, copy of my birth certificate, and tax file number. The authroities keep stuffing him around and wont release the funds.
He is really busting his hump to help my out.
Now they want a $10k release fee. If anyone can help me out???
What a guy.

I think Jake still has a role to play in defence and leadership and I'd have him around the club for a few years to come on field and for life post football for a longtime so the transition has to be made thoughtfully. But yeah the legs have gone in attack but he still does so much in all the effort areas and clean up. If we are playing big games he's still one of the guys I want playing in defence. Let's face it we have tons of strike in attack and it's our defence that needs to improve if we are to be real contenders and Jake leads the way there.
I like our chances in 2025. Highly unlikely it will happen shortly after DCE retires.

We need another good forward. Missing out on Terrell May was huge I doubt we even looked at him.

Agree. Tino was amazing for the titans today. Need someone of his Ilk

Manly simply carry too many average players in key positions. Our lack of a creative hooker has killed us for too long. Jake god love him is so slow and now a borderline liability. If he wasn’t a local junior I wonder if he’d hold down a spot. Ben is faster but just as ineffective. With a different surname would he be picked. We are only a couple of players away from challenging but sadly we won’t get it with this lot. Our Achilles heal remains unchanged
Id hope by 2027 1 of the young forwards we have in the junior system like Munn or Simmi have stepped up

Yes! He was massive! I don't see paseka turning into that kinda of player sadly. If we could get rid of aloia and brown perhaps we could get another decent prop but who's even available
Josiah Pahulu, wants out at the Titans and Des loves a broken forward, swap Brown or Aloiai for him.

Ouch!
Haha yeah disappointing but this thread was about 27 being a premiership window
This would be a great signing if it happened, going to be a gun in the near future. Reminds me of Pole from Tigers who is 1 of the most underrated props in the comp in my opinion. Good leg speed mixed with late footwork at the line is a good combination I’m sure most people would like to see in our pack. Apparently off contract after this season as well, we’d be crazy to not try get him here
I don’t think it’s a done deal as contract not registered with NRL on their contracts website, the Bulldogs were trying to sign him around the same time as they got Leo Thompson.
Was hoping that was the reason Brown hasn’t played any football or appeared on the injury list, would be a great swap now.
