Did anyone see that in the Telegraph yesterday? We get about 3 mentions all up in the entire bloody thing - and they were all fight-related!! (mostly Les Boyd). Of course no mention at all about our 95-97 team which set all sorts of records, especially defensive ones. No mention of our brilliant '70s teams on-field exploits. These type of things are beginning to bug me these days....
 
yeah I saw that Crush- pissed me off too, especially considering some of the incidents that did rate a mention!
 
sorry mate totally forgot about this till this morning- I have it sitting at home still
 
1. St George 11 premierships between '56 &'66
2. Super League war
3. Dally Messenger signs in 1908
4. Dogs salary cap rorts
5. 1980 State of Origin
6. Sattler plays with broken jaw in '70 GF against Manly
7. Downfall of Kevin Humphries
8. Crowe & Holmes a Court buy Souths
9. Dennis Tutty v. NSWRL (aka death of the transfer system)
10. Kangaroos reclaim "Ashes" in 1950 after 30 years reclaimed


Other Manly mentions:
12. '97 GF
18. Boyd breaks Broham's jaw in '83 origin
19. Souths beat Manly in '55 semi in 11 from 11 streak to win premiership
28. O'Connor's goal in '91 origin

55. '73 GF
56. Fatty coaches QLD to '95 origin series cleansweep
71. Hartley conspiracy theory - Sep-78
83. Blocker's head tap on Eddie Ward at Brookie 15/07/90
91. El Masri break's goal kicking record at Brookie 17/08/03
96. 5 Manly & 2 Balmain players sent off 18/03/68
99. Ian Roberts out of the closet
 
How the hell can Crowe and Holmes a Court buying Souths be the 8th most important moment in rugby league history? Geez, then Manly getting our license back and separating from the Northern Eagles must be the 7th biggest...... :cop:
 
These sorts of things are great for stirring harmless controversy and general discussion/debate about the game.

For instance :
"83. Blocker's head tap on Eddie Ward at Brookie 15/07/90"

Yes, i can see how this was meaningful in the context of a major sport and deserved to be in the top 100 historical moments.................. :lol:
