Speaker 1 (00:01):
Ron Kidd now with Correos the podcast. Dally Cherry Evans,
who has been the half back for Manly? Is it
fifteen years?
Speaker 2 (00:12):
Nothing?
Speaker 3 (00:13):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (00:13):
Marone's captain for how long? Yeah? Forever? And he is
a statesman of the game. I know a lot of
Queensland has turned on him when he thought about coming
to the Titans about five years ago and then said no,
I'm staying at Manly. But sensationally yesterday live on air
basically on one of the Fox News of Fox Sports shows,
he said he won't be coming back, he won't be
(00:35):
playing for Manly next year. Didn't say that he's retiring,
which you would think at thirty six has got to
be close because you retired at twenty nine.
Speaker 2 (00:43):
Corey.
Speaker 3 (00:44):
Yeah, well I turned thirty a bit a week later.
Speaker 1 (00:46):
Yeah, what do you think is going on? Something's going on?
Speaker 3 (00:50):
Oh, look, chess. He's been playing for what we said,
and he's played over three hundred and thirty games for
Queensland and twenty for Australia. He's played a lot of
games of footage. But the other thing is his body
is held up so well. And yeah, he's never and
(01:11):
I think what he's done is really good. Like he's
come out and he's been so good about it. He
said that this is the decision for him and his family.
It's not going to it's not gonna go well with everyone,
mainly fans, so many people are going to have problems
with it, But it's.
Speaker 1 (01:27):
Something's going on behind the scenes. You'd have to say,
got some audio of what happened, because apparently he wasn't
offered a deal by Manly and then this sensationally happened
on live TV. They basically tabled him an offer.
Speaker 3 (01:39):
According to some reports out there at one point five
million dollars a year off and now on the table.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Would you accept that if that is the case at
the Manly Seagulls respectfully, No, because, as I said, I've
been sleeping on this decision since December. So talking to
my family, we're okay with the decision. We're at peace
with it, and we understand that it's not going to
make everyone happy and there's going to be a lot
of mainly fans that are really upset with this, but
we're content with the decision.
Speaker 1 (02:04):
Can I ask you, then, Corey, as a gambling man,
do you think he's going what's your bet? Do you
think he's going to play on next year back in Brisbane,
like try and come to the Dolphins or somewhere, or.
Speaker 3 (02:13):
He's a Redcliff boy and me, Yeah, so that makes
what I understood was he he asked for two more years,
they said no, gave him a one year option, yep,
And then that's what made him say no. Well you
know what, let's just let's just make this easy for
everyone and more part way like I'm done, give you
time to find a new half and I'll make my
decision later.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
Big deal for man, Do you reckon he's going to
come home?
Speaker 3 (02:39):
I think it's fifty to fifty. I reckon he'll either
come home and retire or he'll come home and maybe
play one more year for the Dolphins.
Speaker 1 (02:48):
Oh okay, because doesn't it? I was just looking. Aren't
there lots of clubs bidding for him, like the Roosters
and would be. But it feels like he wants to
come back to Brisbane, don't it.
Speaker 3 (02:56):
I believe if he was a going anywhere, he'd probably
come back.
Speaker 1 (02:58):
Yeah, Olphins could use him to Jesus would be a
good one, wouldn't it. Yeah, you know, I
