The size of a winger is an interesting topic .. I don't think any other position has such a great range of acceptable dimensions.

The top wingers all appear to be a mix of small nuggety or medium athletic with a handful of taller players ..

Speed however is a common factor.

Speed is the common factor that Annihilates the opposition

Speed is the Bullets in the Gun

If you go to War in the Big Battles against the Big Guns with no Bullets

You Die

Because Speed Kills !

Bring on Koula our new Killer

Any data or figures on how well the digital membership is trending?

It can be a huge success for a lot of people and the club.

What a joke that Manly give away their home game to the donkeys yet away game members cant use that game as their one game...
Plus the 'home' memberships are only for games at 4 pines...
Sorry Bozo but Eagles will be getting my ticket sale for the 'magic' round and royalties from my jersey purchase until they tidy this up...

I'm going to make a brave admission and an apology here.
I'm apologising for not remembering Wayne Springall.
All the other players I remember vividly.
Steve Knight was a P.E. Teacher at my High School, great bloke.
The Mighty Max Krilich came to my work Xmas party with his wife in 2002 and he demanded that I sit next to him for dinner and the trivia game.. You couldn't meet a more genuine, top bloke.
A mate of mine that I went to a lot of Manly away games with, had a nick name for John Harvey.
He called him ' Elbows Harv ' because he ran with raised elbows in possession of the ball.
On one night in the mid 80's, we were going to a family birthday dinner at the Black Stump at Mosman, before it became an Indian place, and Johnny Gibbs was coming down the stairs as we were entering. My Brother and myself quietly said to each other " That's Johnny Gibbs!! "
Whereas, our Mother, who didn't have a clue who he was, made a cheeky comment out loud and Johnny laughed, tilting his head backwards. After we'd exchanged pleasantries with Johnny and he'd walked through, we said " Mum, that's Johnny Gibbs, from the Manly Footy team "
Mum said " Oh, I don't care " It could've been The Pope and she wouldn't care.
I was a little embarrassed.
Though, I don't think Johnny cared either.

Johnny Gibbs is one of the finest, thinking, half backs to play the game and not a bad radio commentator as well.

Terry Randall drove his Cement Truck into my mates Concrete pump business at Brookvale one day.
I stood back in awe.
Terry got out of his truck and said " G'day ECCA "
My mates name was ERIC.
Modern day players need to study IGOR's tackling style.
Put your shoulder into the ball carrier between the shoulders and hips and drive the mongrel backwards.

There are only a few things that bring a tear to my eye and one is The Mighty Manly - Warringah Sea Eagles.
Go Manly!!
Mum didn't have a clue who he was and said " Oh, I don't care "
