    Will DCE go to the Dolphins?

    The last option mate. $0.2 million – Veteran and Developed Player Allowance for eligible players who were either developed by the Club prior to becoming NRL players and / or have been a Top 30 player for at least 8 years at the Club or have been a Top 30 player for at least 10 years across the game

    Will DCE go to the Dolphins?

    Don't forget that his 10+ years of being a Top 30 player entitles the start-up to a 200k discount on his contract and they likely won't be signing anyone else that would provide it. A 3 year $M contract becomes a 800k one. Juat sayin'.

    Will DCE go to the Dolphins?

    I guess someone has to do it so here I go. .The Dolphins are going to be the seconds Brisbane team and Bennett will most likely be the coach. Do you think DCE will want to and be permitted to go there in '23. Yes he is under contract with us until Nov 1 '23 but maybe he wants to finish his...

    The squad takes shape

    Con is solely injury cover for DCE/Foz it seems. I hope he is offered a gig elsewhere, for his sake.

    The squad takes shape

    It appears to me that the backs will be as per '21, except for the Walker fiasco as I can't see him re-signing as a 14, and us ponying up 450k for him to play that role. Would an extension mean he would be moving back to the centres? Surely the Beef addition rules out the Walker playing prop...

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    That sucks if true mate. He won't be playing FG at the Sharks for the first half of the season if they don't upgrade him as Devel players are not allowed to play FG until after round 10. I imagine they will upgrade him.

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    Totally agree we have some talented halves who will be ready in 3 or 4 years and they have potentially a lot higher ceilings than Luke. Luke is FG ready now and if something happens to DCE and Foran all we have in the wings is Con. Yeah, we can't keep 'em all but we will be caught short if DCE...

    Does Manly pack have enough Mongrel ?

    This has been mentioned several times mate...his 3 year 650k/year contract was back-ended and thanks for the opportunity to give my thoughts on this. If the 680k and 850 k figures bandied about are correct then he only cost us 420k the first year. Any way you look at it he cost us 650k/year...

    From the kennel: meanwhile at Belmore I understand the the gym and recovery facilities have received a nice little reno Looks like Twent is up to his old tricks, blaming the facilities. LOL

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    He is a perfect 7 for the new game...very fast, elusive and can play. Probably the quickest 7 in the NRL. I think he was let go because he was thought to be to small and defence would always be a problem.

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    He is a 7 mate and he never had an opportunity with DCE there. Killed it at the 9's in his only opportunity. Anyways, I may look at him differently to many as I was a fan.

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    DCE will be out for SOO at least 2 games and then maybe injury? IMHO he was our best 1/2 to groom to take over from DCE. If DCE does indeed leave at the end of next season to join the start-up Con will be our only option at 7 and if Luke improves at FG level in '22 we will have dropped the ball...

    Metcalf .. did we drop the ball ??

    There is something about him that had me on his side. Will he be a star..he may very well become a very good FG'er and I was disappointed he was moved on. He played very well this year and was the Sharks best on 2 occasions I watched.

    Walker critics be gone

    450k for a utility role...no thanks. I can't see him going back to the centres as the current ones have earned their spots and we have youngsters coming through to contest those spots. It feels like Des has warmed to bringing in younger guys because the game has changed so much.

    The 17th team & it’s affect on the player market

    I would imagine they would want DCE signed up well before the '23 pre-season starts if he is a chance to go there. His presence would be invaluable in recruitment etc, etc, etc. Will be interesting to see what happens and I would have no hard feeling toward him if he left a year early.
