Is there a curse on the northern beaches of Sydney? Or more specifically, a curse on those who dare go against the maroon and white?

Did Brett go to the Raiders? I know he ended up at Parramatta. I recall Brett scoring one of the best Manly tries I have seen. It was in a reserve grade final at the SCG probably in 1983 - he ran about 70 metres palming off about 6 or 7 players on the way to the try line.
Phil Carey was one of my favourites played in the 1982 grand final from memory - didn't realise he made the 1990 Raiders GF team.

Speaks volumes about our talent identification / player retention abilities. There really are very few good players that get away from us, we always seem to hang onto the ones we truly want. Awesome stat.

How could you forget his performance in Canberra's 1991 reserve grand final team when the bears beat canberra and he refused to shake the hand of norths players at the end of the game.
He played 3 years with the raiders.

Brett Atkins started his junior football at the Forestville Ferrets before grading with Manly. He then went to the Raiders before a stint at the Eels and then another saeson ending his career at the Raiders. He and his wife lived in Quenabeyan and owned the local gym & squash courts. Last time I saw him was about 4-5 years ago when he was moving down the South Coast!
Very good article. I never realised that info about the players that leave our club not winning any titles. Cuthbo might break that this year....lol yeah right.
Who's the next coach on the line?
Furner at Canberra?
Henry at Cowboys?
Flanagan at Sharks?
Smith at Roosters?
Lang at Rabbitohs?
Sheens at Tigers?
Kearney at Parra?
Unfortunately we lost our chances with Ivan Cleary as we don't play them again...there's always next year though 😉
