"It was a wonderful period with Jack Gibson as coach. He wasnt only a coach of the football team, he was a life coach."




Continuing our series remembering our 1983 Parramatta Eels and Manly Sea Eagles greats, we've got the great captain Steve Edge.


Edgey led the side out to three premierships from 1981-1983, and we sat down and had a chat with him about his memories of the grand final 30 years ago.


Watch our video above, and click here to see Steve "Zip Zip" Ella step back in time to give his favourite moment from the match.
