Matty Ballin still part of Success

[maxta]

Des was on a mission at half time - Matty Ballin still a big part of this Manly team - not just a gentleman but I reckon a Manly legend....they rave about Wayne Bennett's ability to pick out the best Brisbane players ....well he fu**ed that up

Filling the esky with beers. That's the most important job in any team sport.

And Michael Monahan was at the other end of the esky, well done boys.

I'm calling this - no better Hooker to have played at our club? Agree? Disagree? Thoughts?

Krillich was okay. Sedraris was okay. Besides them, we've had a history of playing halves at Hooker (Hasler, Toovey, Monaghan & others).

 

[Ron E. Gibbs]

Mal Cochrane was a gem of a player. I'd definitely add him to the list.

We've had a few good'uns. Max Krilich was better than OK, he was tough and skilful and a real warrior, not to mention the Australian Test captain. Then there was Freddy Jones, Ray Brown, John Gray (although he was mainly a prop with us?) and Mal Cochrane who was a tremendous all-round player.

It's fantastic to see him back at the club, always loved watching him play as he gave everything each game he played.

He must be working with Croker who's improved out of sight this season.

Your forgetting the great Fred Jones

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Sorry but I don’t think you can go past Krillich as the best to ever play for us.

Max Krilich mate @Ryan . Not even a question.

Yep spot on. Matty B was one of my favs but Max was on another level, inspiring captain of our great club and not to forget “The Invincibles”

Mal Cochrane was a gem of a player. I'd definitely add him to the list.

My wife still talks about the time Mal pinched her on the arse at Didi’s night club.

Max for sure...and I have Freddy Jones and probably Ray Brown and possibly Cochrane ahead of Matty too....and i'm a big fan of Matty.

Yes forgot about Ray “useful” Brown. He could play.
