Feedback/Suggestions / Round 21 1970 Easts V Manly
Last post by Ted Baxter - 23 July, 2026, 09:11:19 PM
https://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/seasons/nswrfl-1970/round-21/easts-vs-manly-warringah-sea-eagles/summary.html

ES: confirmed number 18 (0:38 + 1:26) + 26 (2:20)

MW: 12. Krilich (0:10 + 1:00 + 1:20). There is a number 16 for Manly (0:10 - making a tackle. Definitely not 10 as he shows up in the foreground) also at 1:25. I guess that he is Keith Blackett (a back) rather than Lindsay Drake (a forward).

I just thought I would let you know. In the game between Balmain and Manly at Leichhardt Oval on April 11, 1953.
-That the Scrums were 22-21 Balmain's way.

StG: 1. Johnny King (see 0:16), 7. Billy Smith (see 0:43), 13. Keith Maddison (see 0:04 + 0:33). I can see 1-13 in the video.

CB: 4. Max Brown (see 1:31), 5 Johnny Rhodes (see 0:03), 16. Ray Strudwick (see 1:04 + 1:59), 45. Norm Thomas (see 1:44 + 2:00). I can see 1 + 3-13 + 45 in the video.

I am assuming it is King wearing 1 as he is at the back playing FB & the same with 7 Billy Smith playing at HB. With Canterbury, I am certain that Rhodes is wearing 5 & am assuming it is Brown with 4 & it would match the program with Strudwick in 16. 45 is either Thomas or Noonan, as Noonan replaced Thomas. Looking at Thomas photos, it looks more like him.

CB: I can see 1-13 in the video meaning more likely than not, late replacement Les Perry wore number 2 (see 0:39 + 1:02).

ES: I can see 1-13

PP: I can pick up 1-14 in this video. I assume that Delaney (a late replacement in the game) would be in no. 11 (see 0:27). I would then say John Moran is wearing 14 at 0:27 + 0:42.

StG: I could see 1-13 in this video.

https://www.rugbyleagueproject.org/seasons/nswrl-reserve-grade-1984/grand-final/balmain-tigers-r-vs-st-george-dragons-r/summary.html


Bal: 1. Rod Pethybridge, 2. Mark Lawson, 3. Jamie Davidson, 4. James Bell, 5. David French, 6. Ron Ryan, 7. Greg Lane, 8. David Brooks, 9. John Owens, 10. Michael Schofield, 11. Kerry Hemsley, 12. Neil Whittaker, 13. Michael Marketo. Repl: 14. Paul Beaven (Lawson), 16. Michael Campbell (Brooks), 18. Bruce Parnell (Hemsley)

StG: Glen Burgess, 2. Brad Wilson, 3. Michael O'Connor, 4. Phillip Williams, 5. Greg Duval, 6. Steve Rogers (c), 7. Steve Linnane, 8. Stephen Funnell, 9. John Fifita, 10. Billy Noke, 11. Garry Newham, 12. Richard Jones, 13. Rick Powell. Repl: 29. Grahame Buckley (Fifita), 30. Jim Walsh (Powell).

Not bad lineups for reserve grade!

HT Bal 4-2

Goals: Wilson StG 2/4, Brooks Bal 3/3. Perhaps St.George should have used O'Connor or Rogers as goal kicker.
