What you are seeing is how devastated the majority of NRL fans are feeling because Manly didn't lose both of their star halves. Even the more successful clubs have sorts of envy about how great we are. As usual, the media are blowing it out of proportion and rounding up the dregs because it brings in revenue.

Happy to have kept Chez even more so because it's bringing all other fans to tears.

Chez will remain a wonderful one club player and has ensured the good welfare of his family but who needs logical thinking hey? He has committed a heinous crime by back flipping on the Titans, pffft.

ahhhhh the Manly hate is stronger than ever and i love it, will only make it sweeter when we win another premiership!

I couldn't agree more, this is exactly what we needed, you can feel the hate!, and to you tools Lewis and Tallis, wipe ya chin ya both dribbling ****, as usual!

Dickheads!

but he does look great in a Blues jersey.

My favourite thing about the backflip, after the initial delight, is that Mavin has gone into hiding.

The gall of getting stuck into people for pointing out OBVIOUS signs that he was considering a backflip was just absurd. Now it appears he's suffocated from all the egg on his face. Will he ever have the hide to show himself here again? The new saga unfolds...

Where is da MAVINATOR???

Fantastic news with substantial salary cap increases in the next few years and concessions such as marquee player & long serving player allowances plus third party agreements he shouldn't be costing us anywhere near the reported amounts in our salary cap. In 2/3 years he will be the games premier halfback and we will have him on our books FOREVER for a steal. I think we persevere with our back stocks for next year Lyon, Gutherson or Hiku 5/8 and go hard for a long term 5/8 to start in 2017 (Jack Bird). Very glad to be cheering him for the rest of his career : )

Is that a Murdoch rag? Sure looks like one. Parochialism for those with all year round heat stroke.

**** he looks good in blue, I wish he was a cockroach

The bogans up here in Goonsland think he's done a disservice to the whole of Qld. There's even in poll going around asking will you boo him at Suncorp against the Broncos and another asking should he ever be picked to play for Qld again.

An Unbelievably secular bunch they are ....

 

[FlyingHigh]

Just watched a replay of NRL 360 and was really impressed by Ben Ikin and Kevin Walters. They both really stood up for Daly and supported his decision. Can't wait for him to play this weekend.

 

[Orko]

I was also surprised with Trevor gillmeister's view on channel 7 news last night in which wished DCE the best and said he knew if he had a lifetime offer vs 4 years, he knew which he would take. Also said he hopes to see DCE in a QLD Jersey soon. Surprising given his Titans connections, think I underestimated Gilly abit

 

[act_eagle]

it would be good if you could just cut QLD off Australia and let it float away and then we would have more beaches and less wankers

I agree this whole Qlder victim show has been appalling and pathetic. If Cherry had signed with a NSW club and backflipped they'd be applauding him for strength of character. Grow up wankers.

 

[Eagles2nv]

You wont hear the Toad supporters complaining when cronk and thurston retire in the next couple of years and the best half in the game wont be picked because of politics.

They will all scream for him to wear the Qld no.7.

 

[Eagles2nv]

Its funny cause the top news story when I opened foxsports.com today was the Aus Vs WI Test. (FYI aussies are well on top if your interested).

So... ACT and NSW are already starting to get over it, so why cant QLD.

Daly Cherry-Evans transfer: NRL’s transfer system is to blame for the mess, not DCE or the clubs
May 16, 2015 2:57pm
Paul KentThe Daily Telegraph


THE language surrounding Daly Cherry-Evans is one of insult and misunderstanding. It reveals the unfairness of the NRL’s round 13 rule. We need to cut him a break.

It also highlights how poorly the whole Cherry-Evans fiasco was handled. The line for who to blame starts to the left.

But how much can we really attach to Cherry-Evans? Why is the hate so strong? And what will happen if he stays at Manly?

Instead of being praised for being loyal, it will invite more criticism.

The doubt over DCE’s Titans switch has sparked huge criticism.

COOL: Titans playing it patient with DCE

Greg Inglis left Melbourne and signed with Brisbane, then flipped on the Broncos to sign with Souths, yet Inglis looms a modern folk hero.

Luke Lewis was the first to exploit the round 13 rule, signing with South Sydney before reneging to stay in Penrith.

James Tedesco reneged on Canberra to stay at Wests Tigers.

Josh Papalii reneged on Parramatta to stay at Canberra.

None of them were condemned like Cherry-Evans, who has not even exercised the clause yet.

That Cherry-Evans is considering a “backflip” has brought out unprecedented hate.

Where was it for the others?

A listener called 2KY’s Big Sports Breakfaston Thursday morning and, complaining of Cherry-Evans, he started talking about “honouring his word”.

He wanted to know how Cherry-Evans could change his mind and stay at Manly given he signed a contract with Gold Coast.

Didn’t he know he signed a contract, he asked?

He then pointed out that normal people buy houses for hundreds of thousands of dollars, the biggest financial decision of their lives, and get just a five-day cooling off period before the contract is legally binding.

Why did Cherry-Evans have until round 13, he wanted to know, when normal folk can make equally as big a decision and have just five days to change their mind?

The answer, without trying to sound patronising, is because he can.

Cherry-Evans is perfectly entitled to reverse his decision right up until round 13 because the rules allow it.

Yet he has come under pressure unlike anyone else has seen. Again, it’s the fault of the rules and not the player.

When Trent Merrin announced he was leaving St George Illawarra for Penrith earlier this year the Dragons shook his hand and wished him all the best.

Negotiations barely paused when Cherry-Evans signed with Gold Coast before round one.

They were supposed to end.

But managers have now finely honed the round 13 clause so it is now just another step in negotiations.

Greg Inglis backflipped on the Broncos but it didn’t hurt his reputation.
The round 13 clause allows players and their managers to call a club’s bluff.

In other words, Manly’s “best offer” is put forward and Cherry-Evans rejects it, signs with the Gold Coast, and the Sea Eagles now know that unless they mortgage the farm. None of this is Cherry-Evans’ fault.

Blame belongs with the NRL for not blowing up the system.

Cherry-Evans is in no different a place today than he was before round one. Manly have come back with a fresh offer and he is said to be tempted.

Earlier this week Manly told him they needed a decision, once and for all, on their new offer “within the next week or so”. The Sea Eagles don’t want to wait until round 13 because if they lose Cherry-Evans for good they need to get into the market as soon as possible to start filling some of those very large gaps in the roster.

The problem for Cherry-Evans is the constant chipping at his character.

It should not be part of his decision, but it will be because he is the kind of man that likes to please others.

He just needs to remember that when you try to make all the people happy all the time, you end up making none of them happy.

Murdoch would be thinking how easy it is to manipulate the stupid masses into thinking, emoting and saying exactly what he wants them to think, emote and say.

In sport, in politics, in life.
