At least Melbourne produce a team.  All Norths could field was a rabble. 

Funny how that rabble beat Manly 28 to 16 in the 1991 semi final.  If Norths were rabble that year then Manly must have been rubble?

Manly had the best talent that money could buy in the nineties but come up with very few grand final wins.  Was that why they called their coach bozo?  Or was it because he put his son in the first grade team every week?

It was clearly a memorable game and one not to be forgotten.

Glad to hear you Bears supporters were glued to your sets for your one taste of minor glory in 80 years.

I could get you a copy of the game if you want to watch it again? 😀

1921 and 22 was a long time ago. Is anyone alive who remembers?

With the departure of Frank Hyde, maybe not.
