Manly Warringah Sea Eagles Tries Of The Year 2012

 

[StuBoot]

Thanks Swoop, one of the all time great memories at Brookie.
My daughter who is 21 ( then 8 ) stills remembers it, we were sitting on the corner of the hill with Tezza coming staright at us.
The shimmy he put on Tallis is gold, the head back and taking Lockyer on still gives me a thrill - man, we've had some great right centres over the years.
From memory Tallis had a blinder of a first half too, he was at the peak of his powers.
And lets not forget Reeves's last three conversions, we started to believe at 26-14 -don't remember his first three kicks!

That was 14 years ago!!...like yesterday.
two things that should be brought back...
1. The hardwarehouse try/no try sign.
2. Blocker back into the channel 9 box. 🙂

I remember watching the game with the ****s by halftime, I kept watching the 2nd half and almost turned it off then Manly scored, then another. I was elated by the end of the game. Good to see the greats out there Menzies, Lyons, Tooves, tezza and co.

I hope your daughter is stilll a Manly fan.

I was just north of the beer shed. I'll never forget the roar at Brookie that day.

good old Brendan reeves,he wasnt the most flash fullback,but he was as solid as a rock and very dependable

 

[MWSE]

Those '99 jerseys are one of my favourite designs. Love my signed one I have. Even if we were rubbish.

Doesn't matter how many times I see this match, I nearly cry when Reeves kicks that last conversion.

And Reeves doesn't get enough recognition for his commitment to the Manly team.

Wasn't that our final game before the N.E disaster years.
