Brett Stewart according to Weidler

Gorrrrnnnneeee.

 

[Wombat Legacy]

This is an attempt at the dignified approach.
Have a leak from the club that Snake wants to go to UK to play with Gift-check...(I wonder who that was lol)
Have his manager deny it-check.
Snake makes an announcement that he does not want to stand in Tom Turbo's way-check mate.

Remember Bob Batty standing aside for Wombat.....Somebody at Manly could help Snake with reciting that legacy.....I wonder who????

Pleaaaaaassssseeeee!!!

Mimis has unequivocally said they haven't spoken to any other club. That's good enough for me. Clear as day. Ironclad. He's gone.

 

[Mitch]

Softening the blow of letting go of a club legend by saying he 'could' be let go. Plenty to suggest it is already done.

His manager saying that no talks have been had anywhere in the world (i.e. Catalans) is probably insulting most people's intelligence.

Ridge ??? When talking about our all time greats .M R wouldn't normally pop up as one of the first mentioned.

Ridge was good but Eadie was the best we've had followed by Stewart. I rate Ridge on a par with Bob Batty. Both good goal kickers, Ridge probably a little better defensively and a little safer, Batty a little better in attack and more spontaneous. But all four were fine Manly full backs.

Eadie was an incredible player but I put Snake on a level footing with him, except for durability. Snake's injuries unfortunately cost him the chance to hold down a regular rep spot, and possibly also to snare more premierships.

 

[Harmless27]

Things are going exactly the way they should.

A stage managed exit, where it looks like Snake is doing the right thing by the club, and the club isn't standing in his way.

In all honesty, this would be the perfect finished HAD SNAKE ACTUALLY BEEN TRYING when on the field.

Shame he tarnished his memory. But alas, what is done is done. If we can get him off the books, give him a send off, and free up some cap space next year, then surely it is the best outcome.

I don't think that Bob Batty was on $700k a year though!

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

All four were great fullbacks , different skill sets and Manly Champions each one of them, my personal favourite the great Wombat.

As far as Snake is concerned I'm going to try to forget the last few games and remember the Prince as we all should, one of the best ever.

 

[robbiea]

Remember the Prince
not the cess.

 

[Andrew..]

He would have held down the number 1 spot for Australia but injuries cruelled his opportunities.

Yep a pity the Prince became a bit of a Princess towards the end.

Mind you I say the end but if he can't get a deal in the ESL he will be sucking up the $700k with us next year , probably doing not much if his attitude is the same.

I sincerely hope that for him , and the club, it can be worked out.

 

[Crusher_Cleal]

Can we please move him on already, he looks a bit homeless and must be starting to smell..

 

[HappilyManly]

What's happened with Matai?

We never see him or does he not have to show up to games as he's injured 🙄

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Brett was on the sidelines in a suit last Sunday!!

Matai ???

Not that I remember

 

[HoldenV8]

Have to admit that I haven't seen Skivy on the Manly bench in a while, though its highly possible I've just missed the TV cameras showing him.
