How good was sterlo! Great dummy half work and his passing was brilliant. No wonder Peter sterling was regarded as one of the best if not the best halfbacks of the 1980s. I think i need to start watching more of these old rugby league videos.
He should be an immortal. Along with Kenny and Price. For the record, I’m not a Parramatta supporter. That Parra side is the equal of or better than the Raiders and Broncos sides of the 90’s and Easts of the 2000’s. Look at that Manly side and the Bulldogs side they beat.
A champion team beat a team of champions two years in a row 1982 &1983 were at both grand finals could have got a manly retro jersey manly supporters taking them off after losing both games
I used to drink with Graeme Langlands back in the early 2000s and I asked him once who he thought was the best centre since Reg Gasnier. Without hesitation, he replied "Steve Rogers". Keep in mind that Mal Meninga was long retired at this stage. I reckon Meninga was a good player only because of his size - like a prop playing out wide - but had nowhere near the skills of Brett Kenny or Steve Ella, who his cousins Gary, Glen and Mark all said was the most talented of the lot. Brett Kenny himself quietly reminded an interviewer once that he kept both Lewis and Meninga out of the Test team! Lewis admitted Kenny dominated him at origin level, too. Too much politics in sport and Meninga appears to have been an affirmative action pick for immortal. He wasn't even the best player in the Canberra side. What a joke.
@J GYou really need to seek help for your mental health . What is wrong with you ? You repeat the same thing over and over in a loop like you have OCD .You have 3 other accounts that say the same thing , time after time, year after year . As annoying as it is seeing your inane repetitive comments , i am sure glad i don't have whatever is wrong with you .
Wonder why the Parra players were so subdued at fulltime ? Just won the Grand Final but you would not know it would you ? Flogged just 2 weeks earlier 20- 0 by Manly in the Major Semi Final , Parra manage to turn the tables completely on Grand Final day and react like this ?

I love old Rex Mossip... such a classic part of footy
I think he orgasmed after Manlys first try
That 2nd try .. what a player Brett Kenny was. How many times I did that step in the playground and it worked every time.
Brett Kenny an Peter Sterling halves combo would have made it in any era from Rugby League
PARRA POWER!!!! I remember watching this and being absolutely glued to the screen
@J G my sister plays soccer
Is always great when we beat manly i love it.
MIGHTY 💛 PARRAMATTA 💙 CLUB 💛
💙 TRUE 💛 WORD'S 💙
The GURU ! Even by today's fast paced standards, clubs would be begging for him to sign up !

@@stewartdavies929 I would throw Peter Sterlings name into the ring too.
@1:05... Rex Mossop: Graeme Eadie.... 'struck it well'... As he hooks a kick to miss a conversion that he should've made with his eyes closed.
So true 😂
Lol truth
He we go again Manly and Parra
Parra’s coming back but does it matter
Ha ha
The good old days
Never forget
Cheers
Parra’s well ahead but the gap doesn’t matter…
Parra had the classiest backline ever.!
A champion team beat a team of champions two years in a row 1982 &1983 were at both grand finals could have got a manly retro jersey manly supporters taking them off after losing both games
Rose tinted spectacles being worn here, but how good was league then. Keep these videos coming! Good on yer!
Ray price wore the wounds.....tough sob
Brett Kenny is like Steven Rogers. As good as any of the Immortals , but not one.
1000% Kevin, No One can compare to Brett Kenny.

Rogers was wonderful to watch.@@garethwest9069
Sorry rabbs. You are no contest for rex mossop.
4'50 : "A touch judge fell over"
"It's not terribly important if he fell over, did he award the try?!"
Rex was not in a good mood. His beloved Manly team was being defeated.
Poor Barry Ross coped heaps from Rex over the years.
@@davidhowitt8547 Poor Barry. Rex used to slaughter him. Met Barry a few times socially, was a legend.
Back in the days when the greenkeeper did nothing but hold up the bar...
Is it just me? or does the Scg look way better back then?
The moose that roared!
Came in late to watch the game you had no idea of the score until someone scored
Rex had so much Heart
How lucky were we in england to see sterlo and kenny in 84-85 playing. Being an fc fan think sterlo was the better player though
Parra are going to win the grand final get ready penrith
Manly were definitely stage shock ..
Weird if they were . The belted Parra 20-0 just weeks earlier in the semi final to be the first ones into the Grand Final .
They had some best ball kickers in those days.😀😀😀
we will win it again soon go PARRA
Breaking Toast not this year though
Here hoping for a result tomorrow 🙏🙌
Never
All class kenny
The place kicking is terrible
Toe bashing as one would call it!
It looks that way , but the wind was impossible on that particular day.
6:31 parra will win back 2 back
Brilliant hands and backline attack from Parra. Far superior to Manly in the backs.
@J G Nobody cares what you think you tool
@J G my Mother plays soccer
@@Shane_T bahahaha... you're a funny guy.
@J G it's also popular in nations where the men are more feminine than the women...

Why has the 83 Grand final been removed ?
Cancel culture: too many white male heterosexual men were playing that day.
So many of those tries would be disallowed under todays rules for Sheppard .
Yep. Boyd knocked on before he tapped it to score
Who cares about today's footy?
Wonder why the Parra players were so subdued at fulltime ? Just won the Grand Final but you would not know it would you ?
Flogged just 2 weeks earlier 20- 0 by Manly in the Major Semi Final , Parra manage to turn the tables completely on Grand Final day and react like this ?
Chris Close couldn't count to 2 and work out he was marking up on Ella , who waltzed in for easiest try in history LOL
The manly side were all over the para before anyone got the ball ?
The 1st try to Manly, c'mon Les Boyd took Hunt out, today that's no try & penalty to Parra, but probably not we never get a fair go from the refs
old matches 3 points for every try
Kenny is deadly
