I'll get down to it. This club has a history of choking. Since 2000 until now. It's apart of the culture seemingly.
Lets recap shall we.
2000 - 2nd with 9 games left. 7th with 4 games. Finished 10th.
2004 - 8th placed & Needed to win 1 of last 3. Lost all 3.
2006 - Defending premiers managed back-to-back wins once.
2007 - 7th with 2 games left needed 1 win. Lost both, incl game against lowly Newcastle
2009 - 5th with 3 games left. Needed to win 2. Only managed 1. Another win would've seen them, finish 7th
2012 - Premiership favourites. 8th with 2 games left and needed 1 win. Lost both, one against bottom 4 side SYD, conceding 40.
2014 - 9th placed and needed to win 3 of last 7. Only won once and copped back-to-back hidings.
2016 - 9th placed and had results fall their way in final round. Needed to beat Canberra on WT home soil. Lost by 40.
Thats 8 chokes in 17 seasons
made finals three times, won once. It's a bloody dismal record.
