Yeah, they called him Turbanhead, because of his Armenian heritage.

OK, I'm going to ask. Who is/was the Turban?
Boozo said:Great post Ramrod. As I've said on this forum before: Manly is like the Phoenix that rises from the ashes or the Hydra, cut off one of it's heads and two more just grow in it's place.
CLIT COMMANDER said:Exactly. The entire squad could go and play French rugby next year and I would would still be the first with my Manly jersey on to cheer the team on in round one.
Fans follow clubs, not players or coaches.

Matthew Ridge was one of my favorite players growing up.... I still remember a cut out I cut out of the local paper with Ridgey standing in the tunnel at brookie and the Headline read "RADAR RIDGE". Simply an amazing goal keeper and attacking fullback that could do everything!
