Cronulla beat Manly 12-10 in August 1996, with their plan of targeting Manly fullback Matthew Ridge under the high ball working a treat.
The Mitch Healey bomb barrage paid off early when David Peachey scored in the 7th minute by out-leaping Ridge to take a bomb.
John Lang was gracious though in saying that most players would struggle when targetted as Ridge was.
Peachey set up the decisive try with "a remarkable break" in the 57the minute where "he sprinted 55m and avoided 5 Manly defenders to place Cronulla in a position to score their second try."
