A one-club man - the rarest of rugby league creatures - Menzies will play his last premiership game at Brookvale Oval tonight.
A place where he, along with his famous Albion head-gear, made his debut way back in 1993.
A place where he has felt every type of emotion.
A 16-year roller-coaster, with rugby league fans everywhere enjoying the ride, but now it is time to get off.
The end of an era tonight, when the Sea Eagles take on the Titans.

Premiership heavyweights Manly have denied they've hit a form slump just three weeks out from the start of the NRL finals.
The Sea Eagles had been a picture of consistency in 2008 until suffering losses to Melbourne and South Sydney in the past two weeks, their first back-to-back losses since the opening two rounds of the season.
It was the 40-32 loss to the struggling Rabbitohs last Sunday that caused most concern for last year's grand finalists and saw them surrender the competition lead to the Storm.
The Sea Eagles insisted their bubble hadn't burst at a crucial stage of the season, but believed the shock loss was nothing more than a "wake up call." |

TROUBLED halfback Todd Carney appears destined to salvage his broken career with Super League powerhouse Wigan - but he has already been to a return to the NRL as a possible replacement for Manly captain Matt Orford.
It is understood that Carney is close to finalising a one-year deal to resume playing in England after being cut adrift by the Raiders earlier this month after a string of alcohol-fuelled incidents.
But there is increasing speculation he is already in the Sea Eagles' sights beyond 2009 - although chief executive Grant Mayer denied last night he had discussed any move with Carney's management. |

AFTER giving his players the silent treatment following their shock loss to South Sydney on Sunday, Manly coach Des Hasler changed all that three days later. When he did get around to addressing the players following their third loss from four matches, he threatened them all with the axe.
"It won't happen again," halfback Matt Orford said of the 40-32 defeat to the Rabbitohs.
"It's not acceptable here. No one's irreplaceable here, and if it continues, Des made it clear that he won't hesitate to kick you up the butt and bring someone in who wants to do the job. This part of the year is too important to have lapses like that." |

MANLY hooker Matt Ballin is set to knock back offers from rival NRL clubs and remain at the Sea Eagles.
Ballin's manager George Mimis is currently in talks with the Sea Eagles about a four-season deal which could see the rake remain at the club until the end of the 2012 season.
The Broncos' junior has generated interest from several clubs but is tipped to knock back all overtures and remain at Brookvale Oval.
