Chris Hicks Retires

Certain irony there...
Manly wanted Monaghan to join the club years ago, where he probably would have partnered Chris Hicks in the backline, but he chose the Goosters instead.
Now he replaces Hicks in the UK after being a caught out being a very naughty boy. How different might J Monaghan's career trajectory been if he had played with Michael at Manly?

 

im glad we didnt get joel  monaghan  because then they wouldnt have worried about going after jamie lyon  so hard..

good on ya hicksy  i never forget the tries in 07  kicks to the corner  & you rising above em all & coming down with the ball & scoring  with that bearded  face & the huge grin  ..  GOOD LUCK IN LIFE AFTER LEAGUE ... 

 

Best wishes to Hicksy. Top bloke and gave his all to Manly.
Enjoy your retirement.

 

I really liked Hicks as a player.  A very good finisher.  I remember Bani making a break at Brookie and turning to a bloke standing next to me on the hill and saying, 'there's the bloke who'll replace Hicks".  Turned out it was Hick's dad. 

 

Still can't believe Hicks didn't play for NSW.

 

Could've used him this year. Great finisher, and goal kicker.

 

Thanks for your efforts Hicksy.

Great team player and underrated for the mighty eagles

Cheers

 

One of the best banners I've seen over the years.

Good luck Hicksy.  I always thought it was a shame he wasn't there for our success in 08.

 

Good luck to him, one of my all time manly favs.

I noticed in his stats that the he didn't play anywhere in 2003....any of you know it alls know why?

 

Reserves for the panthers in 03.  That was the year Rooney and Lewis broke into grade and were on the wings. 

 

Did'nt he have a punch up with Martin Lang and then John would'nt pick him in first grade or something like that ?

 

That was the rumour Kurri, have to agree the "I Luv C.Hicks Beaver" was a great sign

 

Onya Hicksy...all the best mate! Champion player for the MWSE

 

cheers

 

Hicks to Parra? They need depth in outside backs, have plenty of money to spend...
