Watmough unleashes on DCE

[gunpk]

Why does Watmough keep saying he made sacrifices to remain at Manly?
Wasn't Manly having a hard time with the salary cap because he and others like Stewarts had their contracts backended by Hasler?
I remember after Hasler left their salary cap was a mess

It wasn't to remain at Manly, it was to stay with mates.

I do think they sacrificed a little bit, and that is admirable, but stop pretending it was for the club.

So...................Kick Manly out of the comp?

 

[titoelcolombiano]

Queensland seem to be avoiding picking him again - there must be a reason for that.

 

[The Charlatan]

That doesn’t really fit my narrative though

Haha, fair play.

A f**kwit calling a f**kwit a f**kwit.. Cool story..

So Watmough stays back after training and puts pressure on the young guy to not chase a decent pay day even though Watmough's probably on 10 times as much, even to the extent that he approaches the coach about it and he thinks DCE is the bully.

 

[Generalzod]

Oh well you can see that Cherry ripe is not a team player...

 

[Springs09]

DCE was on $50,000 a year? Holy hell no wonder his manager told him to sit out lol

If it was the same manager that got him to sign a 4 year deal worth $50,000 a year I don't think he should listen to anything his manager says.

 

[Showtime]

Talks about trying to convince a player to take unders but then later has his career cut short by injury....

 

[Grapple]

Watmough could you want from a player?

 

[Peet]

Former Manly & Parramatta player has used social media to allege that team mate at the Sea Eagles DCE had become a F***wit who refused to turn-up at training until he got a massive pay-rise. Just his opinion, but would Jackson Hastings, Steve Matai, the Stewart brothers and the Maroons agree? Just wondering.

 

[Spade]

Everyone in the game knows DCE's is a f**kwit

 

[Spade]

TBH all those guys that hate him made DCE so there just abit salty, if he didn't come into a world beating team he probably wouldn't have kicked on the way he has.

Him and Brett buried the hatchet believe it or not. Skivvie never had the issues the others had with him. Je obviously does rub people up the wrong way, reminds me a biy of Magilla and the Oz Cricket team.

Alternative thread title - "Watmough confirms what everybody already thought."

 

[Exsilium]

Makes you wonder what this guy has done to rub people the wrong way.

To be disliked is one thing. To be hated more than Manly itself? That is something I didn’t think was possible.

His own state hates him.

 

[typicalfan]

Manly should have let him go but he looked like a superstar in the making back in the day but he is clearly bad for culture. Can only imagine how bad it is with him as captain.

 

[Spade]

Politics more then anything, 2nd year in first grade the club upgraded up from 50k to 500k plus 3rd parties where as the senior players in the club thought they deserved it more and just wanted DCE's to bide his time.

 

[gunpk]

I was surprised Barrett made him captain. I thought a guy like J Trbojevic would've been a better choice.
I don't know what DCE is like personally but it seems he's a different to the usual footy player type
