1978- Fibros vs Silvertails
Unlike a lot of great feuds the animosity between the Manly-Warringah and Western Suburbs football clubs can be traced back to a very exact moment in time. It was at a pre-season exhibition game in Melbourne, 1978, that the battle between the two was ignited. After getting thoroughly outplayed in the first half Wests coach Roy 'the Wordsmith' Masters looked around his dressing shed, suddenly realized it was full of borderline psychopaths, and sent his team out to turn the Manly players faces into souffle. Whilst the magpies still lost the game, it would set the bar for which all rugby league hatred will forever against be measured. Warning: Clip not for the faint of heart!
