A man with an infamous kick and infamous name.
At least he murdered the opposition!

Totally underestimated - Surprisingly skilled, somehow good when it counted. Unique.

Big lug comes to mind, but that doesn't describe his football.

An all-time favorite

Loved big Jim. Lunatic but effective.

I remember saying once that we would never win a premiership with him in the team. Clearly I had to eat my words.
He is the reason why I cut players more slack if they don't appear to be up to it..

I had a mini-heart attack when I saw this thread next to Ginnivan’s serial killer one and thought this was about the other Manson. 😂

Gee we give Tay some shit for poor kicking (and he isn’t even that bad). But my old man would yell “handball the bloody thing!” every time James got the ball 😂

I remember reading that the year before we recruited him, Manson took 17 marks in a senior game. That was what caught the eye of Collingwood.
