Favourite Game

Apart from 40 0. I remember as a young kid watching manly win 61 O against the dragons. What made it better is my dad's a dragon fan. He came home from work with a little bit of time left. Walked past and said 'whats the score". And kept walking.

Same game for me. My first trip to Brookvale as a kid with my dad and a few families from my footy team (Terrigal Sharks). What a ripper of a day, remember awesome weather and footy on the hill. Few Saints supporters amongst them too.
 
Games I’ve attended. Fav game 40-0, 2nd fav victory on the bell v Broncs with the wolf scoring.
Love the Wolfman what a player and what a character
One question for you @Waz13 . Who do you think is faster . The Wolfman or Rueben ?
 
People used to hammer Williamson as whipping boy on here. He was excellent in that game.

Monas was fantastic, Ox too. Brett was pre-injuries and went hard in hit ups. King looked really strong.

you don’t know what you got til it’s gone.

Hard to tell Bozo. They are probably pretty close speed wise. I think Reubs would be a hell of a player outside Killer.

I was at this game. It was like 1st grade V 3rd grade. Robbo gave an interview after it saying “ it seemed like they didn’t want to tackle”.
 
Sorry for being a bit of a narcissist everyone, but I was reading about Trent Robinson's reaction last night, and it got me thinking about my favourite ever game of rugby league (the game we literally retired Chris Anderson !!) . Watch this game, and when they pan on him in the second half. Literally thought he was pulling a heart muscle ! :whew:

For years I wanted a copy of it, but could never find it, and I just did a random search on youtube, and someone cast the whole game ! YYYeesssssss......so for your viewing pleasure, here my friends is Manly's best ever game in my memory (not sure if they include Braith Anasta tearing up after the game :rofl:):

What's your favourite game guys?

The battle of brookvale! I was on the hill and it was glorious! The way we all screamed as 1 was magical! We smashed them in that game. I watched the replay later and ray Warren said storm need 2 copper cronks to beat Manly.

This is my favourite game after the 40 - 0 nothing can beat beating the CHEATING storm and embarrassing them all over the park. Top highlights from that game....

Imagine beaver puts one over !
sCam getting booed by everyone !
Folau crying !
The Brent kite try !
Robbo's 3rd try !

Anyone got any others?
Fuk me i think I'm gonna watch the 40 nil after the GF. Got my 08 victory pack in pristine condition
 
I was at the battle of Brookvale, thought at the time the blue would cost us the premiership, but they still won against warriors in the GF. Honestly I think the best game I ever saw live. Had it all, tries, stinks and above all a great Manly win.

I remember listening to the radio of this game. I never got to see this game in full. I'd still love to watch it.
 
2008 v Raiders in Canberra.
Cuthbo sent off for tackling too hard in the first half.
We won 31-16 or something like that.

I just knew we would win the comp after that victory.
That the game Matai ended up playing wing ?
 
One of my favourite games was actually a Manly loss: August 8, 2008, late season game at Brookvale against Melbourne that I took my father-in-law (a Broncos supporter) to. We lost 16-10, but it was such a tough game and we really stuck it to them. Came away knowing we'd get them the next time we played them - and we did, 40-nil.
 
Other than 40-0 (of course lol), my favourite Manly game took place on 29 September 1996 at the Sydney Football Stadium (I have to thank my cousin and his lovely wife for the ticket). It was the first time I had ever been to see us play.

We beat St George 20-8 that day. Tooves got best on ground, Beaver scored, Innes scored and Danny Moore scored (right in front of me) and both Des and Ridgey played their last games for Manly.
