I remember Parra's three-peat in '83 because my parents were in Sydney and bought me a knocked-down Manly jersey from Paddy's Market the day after! Parra jerseys were hard to find.

The 'Class of '89' are a privileged lot.

More recently, Beave mentioned '16. I went to the '17 GF supporting the Cowboys but '16 was the last one I watched outside my own loungeroom!

We were at a party down the road and were all screaming during that frantic final play. I was all for the Storm so was upset. One more ruck and they win it.

In hindsight the right team won.
