60 years of manly!! name the best team

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Haven't seen the games since they were played, but didn't Parra target a few others, especially Sigsworth??

Going by the Wheel he'd have Monas over Blake......pfffft

 

[The Wheel]

At least Monas can tackle

 

[byso]

How often have you seen Monas do a Chip and regather. Or even Hasler.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

About as often as Blakey made a decent tackle.

 

[byso]

Hasler is way over rated!

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

He had no kicking game, but then again neither did Tooves.

 

[byso]

Thats why I say no better half than Blake.

Manly has had good 5/8's but not many good Halfbacks.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Hasler is way over rated!

The NSW & Australian selectors certainly didn't think he was over-rated.

However, they did realise Blakey could't tackle & falied to select him on the 1982 Kangaroo tour to the howls of many Manly fans (including you Byso??)

 

[The Wheel]

Byso Blake should be mentioned in the same breath as Hasler. Hasler was always there when the going got tough where as Blake went missing in action.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Should not?

 

[byso]

Blake had far more tallent.

 

[The Wheel]

yep, should not be

Phil Blake ended up playing for about clubs and didn't stay in too many of them for very long. Hasler was discovered at Penrith, came to Manly and had one year at the end at Wests plus a short break in England.

He inspired Manly to a Premiership, played for Australia and did everying possible in the game. He was even lucky enough to play against me at Uni and was even picked in the same rep team as moi. Best player I ever played with or against.

 

[byso]

Look Hasler was inspirational yada yada. But he played on determination alone. Certainly wasn't a game breaker.

 

[byso]

He was even lucky enough to play against me at Uni and was even picked in the same rep team as moi. Best player I ever played with or against.

CW did you play with any other quality players?
