Gene Miles is an absolute legend!, I had his footy cards as a kid, and remember he had one of the best tackle break offloads in the game!

Well looks like FoxLeague has found a way to use Yvonne. Never seen someone bounce around many times from show to show. Anyway, wow! Great seeing Gene Miles..I haven't seen him since 1993

Big Geno. He’s so humble.

Gene, what a absolute legend, Gene Miles epitomises Queenslander. What great rugby league back then when men were men

[@johnh9200]

I am so grateful to have been able to attend all those early games at Lang Park. I remember Gene slamming into Greg Bretnell to score that try. We were right in line with the Boyd tackle and heard the sickening sound, watched Wally signal to bench that his Jaw was broken and then before he left the field, the Big Marn pulled off a huge and courageous tackle on a poor NSW player on the other side of the field. For a footballer Geno has aged well, he could definitely star in a Kevin Costner/Clint Eastwood Western these days. I can only thank God and Senator Ron that they never got to Play for Manly (Warringah anyway).

My daughter won a football at Wynnum Manly Leagues club with all the signatures of Wally, Gene, Scott, Bob and the rest of the team on their last win and last game for the club. We used to go to Wally’s deli at Cannon Hill every Thursday night, go to Greg Dowling’s Macca’s and Bob Linder’s optometrist practice.

Him and Mal great centres for Qld

[@________o6474]

Good man.

[@jontydenton1201]

It was just better back then…..no cheap ‘legal obstruction' tries which dominate the game these days….

[@andydavidson6841]

Was a better centre than Mal

[@aaronwilson-francis8276]

Brought n paid for

[@glenfrazer753]

Was that Manly offer not a third party deal? PBL will give you this much and Manly will pay you the rest...mmm

[@johnh9200]

It was and was acceptable at the time, however, the NSWRL (or NRL?) soon put a stop to them.
