One of the greatest to ever play rugby league
I think Menzies is one of the most under appreciated players ever. Menzies was the gun. Of course his last game for Manly was a winning premiership and of course he scores a try.
One of the true greats, and a gentleman. Not many like him these days.
As hard as they come. The Beaver was an absolute animal on the field!! The only reason I ever wore a headgear in some games was because of Menzies
180 tries as a forward is mind-bending.
Legend.
This guy is the true golden boy of Rugby League. Just such a gentleman, down to earth and the last of the true blue "Have a go" types.
And as good as he was on the field, he's a class act off the field. The only time Beaver made headlines was for his try scoring and general play for Manly, NSW and Australia. No scandals, no trouble with the law, nothing. The man is just a class act.
They talk about rugby league role models ... stuff sCam Smith, the NRL should be pushing players like Steve Menzies.
respect Beaver from the UK rugby league fans
Go the Red Devils, from Australia XD
Walk on off the bench to score with your first touch in the 40-0 flooring of storm in the gf . Made me cheer for manly that game . Thanks beaver
Was never a big fan of manly but Menzies was a special player. Could always depend on him on the field.
Best defender of his generation bar none.
Would have to agree Jack he was a great forward one who could run through a opposition defensive line and offload.
One of my fav players to watch growing up as a kid in the 90s.
ayyyyyoooooo
Evertime he scored at brookie....... "BBBEEEEEEAAAAAV VEEEERRRR" ah the memories
My favourite player...😊😊😊😊
Where's his head gear, couldn't recognise him. One of the best ever throughout his whole career.
A true Legend and and an exceptional role model for our game..
True manly legend
Highly underrated, Very much appreciated by all.
My favourite ever player.
Absolute legend
Up the mighty Seaeagles #GoManly
Ew manly fan
One of the only Forwards I've seen running to back up the back line when they made a break!!
Love you Steve
Legend player......legend bloke.
After watching the Matty John's show for so long, seeing Beaver without his head gear and actually having an intelligent conversation and saying more than "Ayo" scares me slightly
Beaver was a great player around the best players...great player loved see him play...
Beaver Menzies is one of the greatest players, week in, week out, I have ever seen. Met him once after a Roosters match, and he was a gentleman and a great ambassador. Not only for rugby league and manly , but for sport in general. They loved him over here ( UK ) and there is no reason not to. Amazing ability, but a lot of people don't seem to recognise actually how hard he was in defence. A true giant of the game. I'm a Roosters fan, but Beaver makes my top 10 players ever. Wish he was coming to play for my new team in the Midlands Premier League in 2021.... keep an eye out for the Staffies Rugby League in Stoke -on- Trent.
Favorite player growing up. Made eels fan also. Loved the way he played.
Lyons & Menzies is a bit like Caught Marsh bowled Lillee.
Agree, like Stockton to Malone, Utah pairing. This was a great interview.
Great guy, very down to earth. Awesome player. Good on yah Menzie.👍
The best second rower of all time. I don’t care what you people say.
One of the best.
One of the great role models of Rugby League a true gentleman 👏
Can we all agree we hate manly, but love Menzies?
Nope, I love Manly. And the Beaver hehehe
i feel the same way about Darren Lockyer and the Broncos
We can all agree we hate storms but hate Smith even more
will he ever be considered as an immortal ? i hope so
Never liked Manly but Menzies was special. Imagine if he had stayed with Manly 5 years more after 2008. He would have clocked 20 years (1993-2013) with the same club and would’ve probably ended his career winning that years GF. You’re a legend mate👏
I don’t think he had another 5 NRL seasons in him. Maybe 1 or 2, but definitely not 5.
Champion of champions!! ..
Legend.
He got his nickname from some bloke in Tanzania
Legend 💪
there for his last game at Hull. one of the greats
0:32, the player 2nd from right back row - looks like Steve! I thought that was going to be his grandfather.
Menzie Magic
LEGEND THAT'S ALL
Worst part of an away day at Brookvale - Grant Goldman with the "Beaver!" every time Menzies broke the line (which against that mid-2000s Souths side was all too often)
I think almost everyone I know was in the north-western corner of the ground, when Steve scored in the 2008 GF - or that's what they all tell me ...
Even though I am a Bulldogs supporter, not matter how much their performance pisses me off. I always had a soft spot for Menzies and a lot of others. But nothing was as cool as the old style head gear and the fact this bloke could play in the backs as well as the forwards. Truly a forgotten legend of the game.
My best forward of all time his style was the best that head gear he wore though
He is so funny
That manly team from 94,95,96 and 97 where amazing teams. I think only one premiership during that time is an unfair reflection of how good they were especially when you think they had to compete against the raiders and Broncos who were juggernauts at the time.
i f@$ken love the Beaver!!
If I picked a all time team I would pick it on defence and Beaver would be my first pick.
12:01 ... check out who throws the final pass to Beaver. As a Manly fan, I'm extremely conflicted about that!
Blokes like the Beaver and Jake T make it hard to hate Manly with the proper amount of fervour.
Marty T is also a legend
@@stevejenkins4372 Wish he never left the Bulldogs haha, he would've been Roy Asotasi 2.0 lol
All round good bastard!!
How anyone could not like 'The Beaver' is beyond all logic...Like his namesake 'Robert' He to would convince a Sao Biscuit it was actually a lamington cake. Just a great player.
How did matt offord not play origin !
Ayyy oooo
As a Knights fanatic my dislike of Manly is immense, however I would pay money everyday to watch the great Beaver Menzies play, just bloody tough and talented.
The greatest NRL career of all time ? world cup wins, origin wins, scoring a try in his last game for Manly 40-0 GF, hard to argue otherwise. #beaver #uptheeagles
Amazing player. Such speed and balence, but could smash an opponent with a classic tackle too.
🥊 WBC Steve THE BEEVEER FEEVER MENZIES
FRASH MANNN!
🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Manly through and through 1 Club player prolific try scorer
I fall into the group of people that hate manly but didn’t mind menzies
Andrew Voss is the True Champion
The only guy I could ever respect from Manly.. He played in the god dam wrong team :/
Heyoooooo
The glory days, I suspect there will be no more of those until Des gets his marching orders
Well this aged like milk
THE BEEV LEDGEND
His grandfather looks a bit like Tom Burgess??? Could they be related???
Hes my uncle
Wonder why the voice is Husky?
So what. He likes his beavers bushy.
Biggest cat
Please don’t take the Lords name in vain, please repent
