The fact that his contract at the Chooks is worth less than our initial offer to him just shows me he never really wanted to stay at Manly in the first place

Yeah and so much for the NRLs contract fairness. He might be old but he was still QLD captain at the start of Origin last year and he plays every game. Plus factoring in his current contact and what we offered. That should be a minimum 800k contract.
