When was the last time Manly played a first round match at Brookvale?

Before the days of the JV that's for sure.

98

In 1998 didn't they play a 'home' game at the Olympic Stadium in a double header? I reckon in 1999 Round 1 was in Brisbane. So it could even be 1997

Nope

my bad

96 was the last time at brookie - souths. we won 44 - 6

97 leichart, 98 brisbane

99 was against the knights at olympic park

the beagles played at gosford 1 year, but thats not manly

then cowboys cowboys warriors 2003 - 2005

Fluff is right. I was at Olympic Stadium for that Manly-Knights game. We were killed but Tezza scored the first try. It was the end of an era - Bye Bye Manly!

Was record crowd for a league game - not sure that it was beaten in the GFs for 99 or 2000 before they remodelled the stadium.

 

[Fluffy]

It was beaten in the Saints-storm final (107999) that year we had 104583 to the DH

But it is the second highest ever

 

[byso]

Yep '96 is the answer
