I have been saying that in other posts.Well if nothing else, looks a lot like the 2017 season, definitely brilliant but inconsistent....

How is the dog on the field - what a classicManly v Easts 1976
I used to do the same except from HurstvilleAs a teenager in the 70's, I would leave home (Belmore), train, ferry and bus to Brooky, watch 3 grades, return trip, hot chips at Manly Wharf, they were the best at the time and get home in time to watch Rex's wrap up in the news and then the Channel 7 match. Sometimes able to watch SportsAction/SportsWorld in the morning and watch all of the highlights of last weeks games.
Wow some great footy Phil Lowe, Steve Norten were terrific players although Lowe had hands like feet at times.
And there was no media & fans moaning about imaginary clashes of jersey colours ruining their life.
Manly in white played plenty of other teams in most white jerseys like Dragons, Canterbury & Penrith. And no one ever thought it was a problem or difficult.
He's a legend, no risk. Still made the kangaroos. Wish he played 300 games thoughMore proof I wasn't imagining anything when I thought Johnny Gibbs would be a legend.....
sad it didn't work out for him with the calcified hamstring injury....
Love it, plays we so deep however that allowed for the defence to be broken apart easily with players rushing up/some holding back. Plenty of inside passes as well of which I'm a huge fan of, catches everyone by surprise, nice to see turbos doing it at the moment with us.Thanks again @eagle66 for the great footage and memories - excellent stuff!
The attacking mindset and support play epitomised Manly.
I'm interested to know what some of the younger supporters think of the style of play from that time? @Turbo1 @Harry Smith
I love the older style of play, it looks so much cleaner and simpler than what the game is like today. This old manly style reminds of what manly is this year, everyone backing up, support from the play makers.Thanks again @eagle66 for the great footage and memories - excellent stuff!
