[Berkeley_Eagle]

In no particular order
Geoff Toovey - pound for pound the toughest league player ever
Cliffy Lyons - 1 word Magical
Bob Fulton - someone shouldve cloned him
Graham Eadie- he was great to watch
Steve Menzies - not just loyal he could play

Honorable mentions
Terry Randall
Phil Blake
Mathew Ridge
Max Krillich

 

[SeaEagle007]

for me the 1994-1996, 2008 and 2011 teams

Every single one of them!!!

 

[Captain Moondog]

Bob Fulton, Steve Menzies, Mal Reilly, Cliffy Lyons, Graham Eadie

 

[Phantar]

You can't leave out Roy Bull!

Too many great players, but try:

Bull, Fulton, Eadie, Randall, Jones, Menzies, Toovey, Lyons, Reilly

Honourable mentions:

O'Connell, Krilich, Thompson, (Ian) Martin, Willey, Stanton, Mossop...the list goes on...

Hasler would have been up there...but it's still too soon!

 

[bob dylan]

Fulton
Eadie
Randall
Menzies
Bull

Hard to leave out Lyons, Krilich, Thompson, B & G Stewart, Reilly, Toovey, Lyon, OConnor etc

 

[SeaEagleRock8]

To me every member of each of our premiership teams will be forever remembered as a Manly great. As will a smaller number who never managed that.

Question – is it our greatest ever players? I probably agree with Moondog.
Or those who made the greatest contribution to Manly football? Toovey would come into the reckoning (and, probably a few years down the track, you-know-who).
Is it limited to on-field deeds? If not, Arko would be a Manly 'immortal'.

Too bloody hard! Like trying to pick the top 5 Beatles songs but here goes:
Fulton
Eadie
Toovey
Menzies
Randall
(So hard to split Stewart and Eadie, quickly posting before I change my mind again)

 

[Mal Cochrane]

Too early to be considering Brett Stewart i think.

I would have Cliff Lyons in there, no probs.

 

[Andrew..]

Tough question Cambo,...Menzies....Fulton....Krilich....Toovey....Eadie, special mention to Randall, Reilly, Kennedy and one of my personal favourites Freddie Jones, our first grand final winning captain from memory.

oops how could I forget Cliffy.

Strewth!! How could I forget Cliffy? Told you this was hard.

 

[byso]

I reckon Ben kennedy would be up there for being a huge part in the clubs resurgence.

How about greatest coaches?

 

[Cliffy4PM]

Ian Roberts put in more than BK.

 

[Mark from Brisbane]

Way too hard far too many great players, top 10 is easier and most covered on previous posts. Hard to fit in Ben Kennedy BUT without a doubt the most astute buy ever, helped in a big way to create the current culture.

 

[niccipops]

My Dad - he brought me up as a Sea Eagles supporter.

 

[Clint]

Agree too Mal.
I think Brett will be... one day...

1. Beaver
2. Cliff
3. Bob Fulton - didn't see him play but have heard of the legend.


Not sure about Tooves - was my fav player along with Cliff when he was playing - but have a feeling my opinion could be swayed but current circumstance.

Don't know enough about Roy Bull. Can someone enlighten me?
