On Sunday, Garrick converted four key goals, propelling him to a significant career milestone of 1,160 points, surpassing Bob Batty’s previous record of 1,158 points.

The match against Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs took place at Accor Stadium, where Garrick’s effective performance helped secure the win for his team and advanced him to third place in the club’s all-time point scorers list.

The top five all-time point scorers for Manly are led by Graham Eadie, who accumulated 1,917 points, followed by Jamie Lyon with 1,410. Garrick’s current third place is followed by Bob Batty with 1,158, and Matthew Ridge with 1,093 points, showcasing a long history of proficient players at the club.

The achievements and contributions of these players have been pivotal in shaping the competitive stature of the Manly Sea Eagles, a team with a proud heritage in rugby league.
