Perhaps a backflip?

It’s not over yet. Mestrov and Penn to offer him a 2 year deal.

Our crack first rate owners on the ball again .......

 

[Sea Eagle 4 Life]

NRL 360 just announced they are going to give a two year deal with Penn and Mestrov counter offering.

It seems a bit late now!
What were these idiot Manly administrators doing whilst the Roosters were in his ear???

 

[Jay Eagle]

Meltdown time...😂🤣

 

[Kiwi Eagle]

Mestrov and Penn have ****ed it, and they can get ****ed

Seriously, this bloke has given plenty to the club, no off field dramas, always available, granted he has had plenty in return as well, and they wouldn’t come to the table with something respectful.

They can find contracts for dickheads like Lodge though

Thank you DCE for your service over the years.

I for one, am not surprised, for reasons that I will not elaborate via this forum and in light of this, I wish him the very best of success in the future.

Life without DCE in the coming years will be very interesting as will life for his new club, once a deal is reached between both parties.

Lowballed on a one year deal only with us? I am assuming we had already spent most of "his" money for 2026? Who will we have to turf for 2026 to keep him?

 

[Kalvin]

Yeah Seems like mestrov has shi* the bed with this one!

 

[master blaster]

They have said he is signing with Dolphins or East's for 2 years.

Mestrov has rung Fox sports and said they are now offering DCE 2 year contract.
Maybe too little too late from Mestrov and Penn!!

Hope its not too late

 

[Jay Eagle]

What will be will be.

We need him to stay.. even just to help bring on the next Gen.

Him leaving will impact the club more than just in 2026

Manly hasn't been told of dce's decision yet

I'm the biggest Penn critic however, they have been extremely proactive in negotiations and were working towards a revised deal, retirement was mentioned along the way (in the early stages of negotiation), however DCE is after a certain amount of money and he is well aware of the dearth in the marketplace for a quality half-back.

 

[mave]

So if our plan was to Lowbank Chez, why didn't we off Humphries a decent contract, with that in mind.

Seems like 2012 all over again.

Here we go again. Seriously, if any player - any player - doesn't want to be at the club, the door's that way. If you want to be a one-club player, great. If you don't, that's fine as well. But don't insult everyone with "I'm not staying at Manly, but I'm not sure whether I'll play on or not - I'll make that decision later in the year."

 

[Disco]

Side note, crazy how much older each previous generation looks.

Deadset Bozo looks 52 in that pic

 

[Frogz]

Danny Weirder exclusive...say no more. I'll believe it when the club makes an official statement about it.

 

[LeonardCohen]

I wouldn’t be shocked if Galvin ended up at Manly. I doubt DCE is going home for family reasons; he’s lived on the Northern Beaches for 15 years…my guess is that’s home. I suspect the Roosters have dangled a pretty fantastic post-career incentive of some sort.

 

[Waz13]

Perhaps a backflip?

Please an East’s backflip!!!

 

[Cochrane]

Remember a few weeks ago he had no interest in leaving manly, but thought he would speak to just the clubs he would consider playing for.....well a few weeks later
