Brisbane Broncos vs Manly Sea Eagles All-time greatest teams

[The Who]

A team with Fulton in it tips the odds in Manly's favour.
For those that never watched the great Bozo you missed the greatest ever.

I remember a 60's or early 70's computer simulation matchup between Muhammad Ali and Joe Louis. Think they had Joe winning ? If they could do it then, surely google and whoever could do a simulation between a couple of RL teams?.

Mind you, computer programmers were pretty brave in those days, as were the astronauts that depended on them.
Manly by a field goal, kicked by the Clown.

Back in the 80s the courier mail did run a computerized game of Wynnum-Manly V Canterbury.

Wynnum won.

All total guess work and speculation..

Manly by 40

It was Ali vs. Rocky Marciano, and theany result was Marciano by KO, even though Ali has a chin of granite. That result is widely considered as a crock.

Any team with Cliffy in it will win. Greatest player I have ever seen. To our family, it was always believed that when he turned up, it was Cliffy vs. The Other Team.

I'd go with Kennedy, and I think the exclusion of Ian Roberts is a surprise. I would also have included Ken Irvine over Snoz.

I personally agree with Snake at fullback. Acceleration, ball skills, scores tries because he knows where to be (imagine him hanging off Cliffy), unflappable under the bomb, and his try-saving tackling is superb.

I await the opinions of those much more knowledgable than I (which means no one because I rule).
