[Resurrected] Reuben Garrick

PS Garrick just looks like a solid unit of fast-twitch muscle, even his jawline is jacked haha.

Ok ok I think we've pumped up this blokes tyres enuff in this thread. So to add some balance (unnecessary negativity) to the discussion the name 'Reuben Garrick' wreaks of private school rugby ponce to me .... 😛 Go Manly!

 

[globaleagle]

A private school etc etc would point out that it is 'reeks' in this case and not 'wreaks'.


Not me though.

I like Sanga the best...but i'm a favourite of names like Beaver, Igor, Turban-head and The Brick with Eyes.

Just as an aside ... we have had a Reub before ... the legendary Rupert (Reub) Hudson who played for the Sea Eagles back in the 50's I think .... and was a dedicated club man his whole life ... he was a fixture arounf d the place back in the day ..

In fact Reub Hudson Oval at Curlie was named after him ....

I think its about time we discussed his nickname. Seems like he is going to be around for a while.

I don't think "Sandwich" really cuts it. Anyone got anything better ?

Just don't call him Garrick Morgan. He's a better league player than that.

 

[The Who]

You don't like 'Sandwich' then how about 'loaf'?
(and then the centre inside him on the football field could aptly be called 'Loafer')

 

[47MVEagle]

How did the "Sandwich" nickname come about?

I played footy years ago with a Tongan bloke whose family name was so hard to pronounce we just called him "Sofa Loafer"

Thanks for that, what about we call him the Deli ?
At least that way Suli might show for training....

His middle names are James Kinkaid.

Garrick is all muscle. He looks like a great trainer

Reub was too old to have played for Manly. You're thinking of his son Rupert (Rupe) Hudson, who died a couple of years back. Also a great servant of the Club.

Definitely one of my favorites. Hope that doesn't spell the end of him (see Jamie Lyon and Dylan Walker).

Sorry in advance Reuben. Hahaha

Mate, you have confused me ... all I know is I used to say g'day to Rueb Hudson at least 3 times a week at brookie and in about 1973 they named the oval at Curlie the Rueb Hudson Oval .... the bloke who died a few years back was the right age to have played in the 50.s ..... are you saying the Oval was named aftr his father ?
