Post-Game Discussion Manly V Souths [Round 18, 2025]

[Mark from Brisbane]

There's usually one Melbourne big win and then a close Manly win each season. I can see a repeat July 27 2019. A couple of Brookes/ DCE 40/20s and then a DCE field goal. Haven't seen one for a while. This'll be a close game.

Yes I’m not sure why but we always seem very UP V the Drizzle

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

Yes it’s such a pity they don’t

They (the Club) don’t know either.

Apparently they’re a bunch of old blokes, that back in the day, played for some outfit call Manly-Warringah.

On a serious note, I did recognise the fighting fit Brad Parker.

Clubs always seem to have a special rivalry with anyone that's beaten them in a grand final. More so when they've each beaten each other (and not in the dark ages but within living memory) 🙂

That’s a good point , although we rarely seem to be UP v the Roosters

Yes in those photos I only picked Max Krillich & Brad Parker.

You're probably aware, but you can look up the player's name by their number here: First Grade Players List

Unfortunately, not that many are wearing numbered tops.

Jesse Sene-Lefao was there with his usual big grin. Good to see him turn up. Wiki says he’s 36 and still contracted to Sheffield Eagles.

Danny Moore was interviewed on field as they went around. He mentioned how good it was to see the Hill still in place in this age of boutique stadiums.

Noticed Max K and Ian Thompson had a big grin for the BF stand.

Love seeing the old timers who aren’t so mobile out there leading the way for the lap of honour. The quality of the turf must look a bit different to when they played! 😁

Ah yes I did see Ian Thompson as well.

It’s notable that not many from say the last 20 years bother , but that’s possibly an age thing.

I certainly know the older you get the more likely you are to turn up to see mates from years gone by as you really never know when it’s the last time you might see them.

Went to a footy reunion , in 2023 , of the Moree side that won the University Shield in 1973.

Those guys were all my age and a few a year or two younger .

Already there’s 3 missing & we all looked around wondering who’s next.

That bloke is there every single year for GE day and I’ve also seen him at other games including last week against the Tigers. I’d also love to know who he is!
