What’s the porpoise of that…
This can be read in two different ways. Yes he did all of the above in the season proper. He was close to best on field on more then one occasion. Well done Dylan.
After the season finished he definitely strangled the **** out of the goodwill he had built up through his on field performances, via the contract fiasco. Yes it was probably his management but I think it was very poorly managed considering the loyalty that Des and the club had shown him through his off field performances.

To avoid any back flips ?
Adam Lucius in Northern Beaches Review this week says:
"Manly are growing tired of protracted negotiations to re-sign Dylan Walker as his manager parades him around to other clubs."
This lends weight to the theory his manager has been trying to get a bigger deal out of other clubs and nobody's interested.

We did.
Happy with one year. Club probably thinking they could have Fainu back in '23 and Lawton or Croker can take the 14 role. I would only sign him if he is vaxxed. Don't want the drama of him not being available for games outside NSW.

Looks like he doesn't want to stay at Manly because of the drop in payment. Was speaking generally about the club with an insider this morning (ie talking cr#p) and he basically said he'll only be with us next year if he can't get a contract elsewhere. That sounded pretty bad to me. Do we really want a player who's not really wanting to be there? Under those circumstances why would we give him the 12 months so he can go to the Dolphins or anywhere? Sounds like we would only get the barest level of commitment from him, won't want to get injured etc etc.
At what point do we pull the pin on any offer?

Should still be a benefit even if Dylan is only signed for next season . Can easily cover centre or 6 apart from his middle roving role and is a competitor at heart . No doubt will have to accept a reduced contract but looks like not much more of an improvement elsewhere . Just need some more grunt and authority from the pack and Dylan can compliment that and the centre option for him if there are any issues there with lack of performance from others .
It all depends on whether he signs with someone else prior to season 2022. If not the lack of interest from other clubs should motivate him to continue to perform so as to drive his value up for 2023.
Yea, cause Fainu is going to be so much better behaved, if the myth ever plays footy again.
And people are blowing up about Tyrone May. Fainu is cut from the same women abusing self entilted attitude.

Fainu was allowed to play while the incident was before the courts.

That’s certainly food for thought XV -1 and an opinion not always put forward as we remember 9 or 10 games as a rookie two years ago albeit a spectacular periodYea, cause Fainu is going to be so much better behaved, if the myth ever plays footy again.

It is certainly a long was back for Manase and to do so and be successful would seem a testament to his character and he should be recognised for effort if he can achieve
However the window for success in our new game is short and incredibly harder by youngsters carrying burden and the playing fields of all sports and life are littered with examples of not being able to carry the weight
It will not only be Manase who needs to adjust himself but will have to carry expectations of everyone else From both dudes if the fence
Tough times a head for the kid and those around him
Go manly

Still a liability
17 Games 37 missed tackles at 2.18 per game this season. This means that he sits 3rd on the most missed tackles per game in the club. Considering the limited time that he plays this is a telling stat.
I had a look at the games that he played in the middle and noted that he misses far more tackles per game in this role e.g. He missed a total of 15 tackles in the last 3 games of the season(finals games).
He is a point of difference in attack and gets us on the front foot, but, perhaps the coaching/recruitment staff considered his defensive liabilities too risky to offer a two year contract.

Any update or insight from anyone into the Walker signing/not signing saga?
I think the more important question is , “ when do the social media / PR guys come back from holidays “.
Because when they do we might find out more.
Would suggest there are a couple of campaigns to come
1. New jersey
2. Xmas
Both of these need some hook
