Now as far as i know,this tiny chap was retired by the time Silvertails.net got made
So i think its about time we step back and appreciate all he has done and continues to do for this club
As a kid growing up i always dreamed of being a 7 after watching this little dude run around,problem was i had no balls skills nor kicking ability,so a 10 was put on my back and off i went,eventually after a lot of hard work and practice,i got his number for 3 games in total.....U/6s and it took me till C Grade to get a run there only to eventually get back to 13 swiftly
Every NRL fan when thinking of Manly loyalty always goes to thoughts of Beaver,as he has played the most games for us and stuck with us through our near death experience,but nobody ever brings this bloke up! Why? Personally i dont know,Beaver may have been forced out of the club but Toovey NEVER played for another team in either the NSWRL,ARL nor NRL
He never played ESL for bucks,his blood was purely Maroon and White and would not play for anyone else,he played a GF with a broken eye socket,something even the so called tough QLDER Lockyer wouldnt do
And now after the DESfection he has been given the title of Head Coach and things are a little different,contrary to what he said would happen,passes go wide more often but due to lack of combinations this hasn't YET paid off,One poster in particular said our defense has been poor but after tonight he'll be eating a lot of words,as with the comebacks of the Stewwies it tightened up A LOT almost instantly,sure broken play was still a sore point but we'd have cracked a million times in front of the line where the refs and our poor handling at times left us
One thing ive noticed most is OFF-FIELD,we're more media accessible which quiet frankly makes me smile,i loved the idea of us against them,but not to the point that Des took it to which was under an iron curtain which in todays markets,isnt really a way to get us the funding we need
He has transformed Rose into the powerhouse we all knew he was,how you might ask incase you havent watched? By dropping his ass to NSW cup till he showed nothing was worth more than his FG spot,he kicks players out of top grade who don't perform
Oldfield cant catch? NSW CUP FOR YOU!!! George has ****ty beep tests,NO FG FOR YOU!!!
Toovey's favourites are those who put the maroon and white on and bleed it out when they get cut,his loyalty is to good results for our club,unlike a certain old coach who refused to the point of stupidity to drop under-performing players the ilk of Scott Donald and the now forgotten winger Tony Williams
Des would never have dropped Oldfield,but after poor showings Tooves wasnt afraid to cut him and our culture is transforming as we speak to the fabled style of culture which is the entire club fighting for spots on the field ready and willing to put their bodies on the line and push themselves to the limit for the betterment of the team
Toovey is the embodyment of the Manly Warringah club,toughest to ever play,flare and unrivalled defense (Positionally speaking)
Once again,The bulldogs pay overs to get the scrub (Aka Hodkinson to our Cherry-Evans)
