What DCE brings to this club can't be described. It will change everything.
Sponsors. Members. Crowds. Revenue. Players.

I wouldn't take Docker, he's another concussion magnet. I understand he's one head knock away from being told not to play again.

Think about DCE right now.... His manager is saying to him... "mate...it would be a VERY bad look for you to go there now"... and he'd be spot on.

By the time DCE gets there, any "problems" re drugs will have been moved on. If I were him I'd be inclined to view it the same as before, but with the training facilities to be altered. In no way should this reflect poorly on DCE if he chooses to go there.

The point im making is, this is nowhere near over. He may have no one to pass the ball to by the time he gets there. All this does is reinforce his choice

I would want Dce to choose us because he wants to play here ,as Gorman has been saying about building a culture and what not. I wouldn't want him here by default because he doesn't want to be at manly and his first choice the titans are a joke

Good post. Tend to agree. Sometimes its not that easy. But in the end things work out.

maybe rothfield had more of a motive then just slagging the Titans in his article lol

Rothfield writing this **** really reflects poorly on our club and earns us more enemies than friends. It really angers people up when they see a "sharks supporter" campaigining to have other clubs kicked out (for drugs no less) after all the **** we've been through.
Worst "supporter" ever.

Titans’ pursuit for star halfback Daly Cherry-Evans sours following drug scandal
Chris Garry and Peter Badel The Courier-Mail February 21, 2015 12:00AM SHARE
'It's been a tough day'.
THE Gold Coast Titans’ cocaine scandal has put their pursuit of Daly Cherry-Evans on life support.
The Titans were already struggling to come up with third party sponsorship deals to match Manly Sea Eagles’ offer and now two of their players have been charged for supplying cocaine.
The Titans are trying to institute a “no wankers” policy at the club and have repeatedly quelled Cherry-Evans’ concerns their culture was not up to NRL standard and their resources could not produce a premiership.
Culture, not money, was the Titans’ main pitch to Cherry-Evans but now they can’t even promise him that.
Already without a major sponsor, the charging of two Titans players is a serious blow to the club’s brand rebuild.
Titans’ staff were quietly confident of snaring Cherry-Evans, but the charging of Beau Falloon and Jamie Dowling with cocaine supply has them privately fearing the Manly star is now no chance of moving north.
The Titans were selling Cherry-Evans on being part of the re-birth of a club, a chance to do what Greg Inglis did when he joined South Sydney and transform a club from rebuilders to premiers.
Cherry-Evans’ manager Gavin Orr gave the Titans hope on Friday that his client remained in their sights.
Orr said the Test playmaker, who turned 26 on Friday, was seriously weighing up whether to join the Titans next season.
“He’s celebrating his birthday today and hanging out with his family,” Orr said.
“Daly will make his decision in the next week. The Titans are a genuine option, he wouldn’t have visited them if he wasn’t. ”But whether this incident affects his opinion, I can’t answer that right now.
“Daly values his brand but one incident doesn’t make the Titans a bad club. I’ll talk to him in the coming days and we’ll make a call in the near future.”
This year was meant to be a new beginning but an incident from last year has destroyed the solid foundations coach Neil Henry and the off-field staff had built.
The new Titans regime has been working tirelessly to restore the club’s credibility, which began when they stripped Greg Bird of the captaincy for urinating in public.
It was a direct confrontation to the playing group, that this version of the Titans would not tolerate poor behaviour.
Then they sacked Paul Carter for repeated alcohol offences to reinforce their message.
Now the poor behaviour of players has seriously impacted the club’s future as an NRL entity.

To be honest it wouldn't bother me in the slightest if that's how we got him.

same, wouldn't care if he was dragged here kicking and screaming and forced to play for us, and besides, he has enough reasons to want to play for us
I have the feeling the Gold Coast were behind us anyways, I always thought it would be between us and manly, still have the feeling he will stay with manly
