Name your top5 MWSEagles of all time.

[Eagledare2dream]

Can anyone name their top 5 Manly players of all time past-present.( i was gonna say 3 but that's too hard even 10 is too hard ) this will be interesting to know. I'll make it easier for all no need to be in order. Mind u I've only been a fan since 1983 as a little boy after seeing the boys so sad so I choose them. Best decision I've ever made, now I'havnt miss a single game since and a proud member from the ACT.

Here's mine but I can put another 20 in there as well

Kamikaze R Gibbs, S Menzies, G Tovs, I Roberts, M Ridge best kicker ever

Fulton Reilly Eadie Randall Lyons
Krilich Menzies Roberts Toovey Lyon
etc

 

[Eagledare2dream]

Didn't get to see all the legend played but I agree with you except C Lyons great player but hot and cold missed fair bit of takles on his day he's a freak bit lost sometime if other players have no idea what's his doing only the great Beaver knows him best.

Top 5 is pretty much impossible because you really have two completely seperate eras.

A youngster would never pick the likes of Fulton , Reilly , Eadie , Randall and the like because they never saw them play.

And then you have the professional ( modern ) era where players are full time , have unbelievable fitness regimes , are surrounded by experts who manage their lives minute to minute.

I think a better question would be , your top 10, with 5 from the 1947-1990 era, and 5 from then to now.

Always an interesting topic , especially for a club like Manly who have had so many great sides over the years . Even for factors like pre cap days or not , could only say that still Fulton , Reilly , Eadie , Randell would and taking many things into account , continue to be in the top bracket , then guess Beaver ahead of just so many other worthy contenders . Snake and even Turbo if he can string together some injury free seasons right up there on the pecking order for sure . But where do you stop , Cliffy , Jamie Lyon , Tooves, Krilich, the list is just too long

That would be my 1-5 in the best manly side if i had to name one.

 

[40 nil]

Fulton
Reilly
Eadie
Menzies
Lyons

Without Fulton & Reilly, we don't win our first ever premiership

Eadie won four premierships

Both Menzies & Lyons won premierships in two different eras (as did Hasler)
