Daly Cherry-Evans is a confirmed starter for Manly’s NRL clash with Brisbane at Suncorp Stadium tonight.
The Sea Eagles playmaker is expecting a tough reception from the Queensland crowd after this week’s controversial backflip.
Cherry-Evans reneged on a four-year Gold Coast deal in order to remain at Manly.
The halfback has overcome a shoulder complaint that kept him out of last month’s opening State of Origin game for Queensland.
