Manly captain Daly Cherry-Evans will become the most-capped Sea Eagles player in history when he plays his 310th game on Saturday.
After 14 years with the Sea Eagles, skipper Daly Cherry-Evans still hates the limelight – but he’s had to learn to live with it, especially in a week when a club milestone looms.
“I certainly didn’t set out to beat a record like this, but I guess along the way you just want to keep playing because you love it, but the competitive side of you obviously thinks about these things. Daly Cherry-Evans will become the most capped Sea Eagles player when he runs out against the Panthers on Saturday.“Cliff Lyons is individually one of the best … there’s a reason that he’s in the rugby league hall of fame – he’s a legend of the game.
Menzies, who played for the Sea Eagles between 1993 and 2008, is the third most capped player for the club with 280 games to his name. If the 69 games he played for the Northern Eagles – a joint venture between the North Sydney Bears and the Sea Eagles from 2000 to 2002 – counted towards his total, Menzies would hold the record with 349 games.
