Hall of fame

How goods that. The great Sir Cliff and Beaver. Have to say though that Tallis and Mark Graham were slightly above average first graders at best. I would have had Harragon and maybe Reddy ahead of Graham.

Cant agree there mate, Graham was the best forward in the world for a few seasons.

Great to see the NRL acknowledge Beavers combined games played (349) for Manly and the Northern Eagles.

Jeez he went well for NZ in the tests. Probably didnt shine through as much with the poor old bears with some hammerings they copped , but very good player.

The Bears had a habit of dragging quality down to gutter level.

 

[castle eagle]

how appropriate that they are inducted together

 

[niccipops]

Yay two Manly legends.
Something good from this year.

 

[Mal Cochrane]

Not knocking Cleal, one of my fav players, he was saved for his running game and would make minimal tackles but geez he would bowl the defenders out of the way.

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

What Tallis lacks in grammar he made up in intimidation. It is a big part of the game (or at least it always was in the past)

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Manly need to rename the southern stand 'Lyons Menzies' Stand. Those two legends belong together

Rename the North West Corporate Stand the Fulton Stand

And the Family Hill the Geoff Toovey Family Hill....oh wait...

 

[StuBoot]

How does a Johnny come lately like Sampson be apart of this. Wtf

Conversely, Debbie Spillane now there’s a blast from the past!

 

[Fluffy]

Good stuff Beaver and Cliffy

 

[ShanghaiEagle]

There were so few Manly players in the original 100 inducted into the HOF that its nice to see some recognition with this latest announcement.

 

[bob dylan]

Lots of forwards could claim that for a year or two. Didn't stand out in the NRL/ARL, which is the yard-stick. Stood out for the kiwi's in a few tests every year, but so did Olsen Filipina. A good player yes, but don't think he belongs in the top echelon.

Anyways I respect your opinion 100% and in my opinion they got this 100% right, they guy was and elite player and it would be wrong if he wasnt in the HOF..

 

[Woodsie]

Not a chance in hell of getting any of them into the final 6.

The “ let’s punish Manly” will shine through from the 25 voting members, particularly from people like Slothfield and co!!

First I guarantee that half of them will be Queenslanders.

Secondly 1 will be a Kiwi.

Leaving just two spots.

Greg Alexander will take one ( and rightly so), and from the others there’ll be a token “ Western suburbs” choice, so take your pick there.

No hope of a Manly player getting within a bulls roar of this!!

.... but you forget Mark ..... God is a Manly fan .....
