So what. Seriously. You judge teams on what happens the following season? That is pretty dumb, even by the logic you've displayed so far.

But that was the first opportunity the half premiers had to play each other. What else can we go by?

 

[bileduct]

lol you guys:

"The Knights premiership isn't a real premiership"

"The Raiders wooden spoon isn't a real wooden spoon"

Sorry mate, but the history books don't re-write themselves just because you don't like the content.

I never said we didn't have a real spoon.

The difference is that we got ours in our first year.

You got yours when Andrew Johns broke his jaw.

Uh, nothing. Theories like that go in the bin with all the other useless hypotheticals like where we would have finished if Joey didn't break his jaw.

Notice how I said "you guys" as in plural? That indicates that I was referring to more than one of you. You might not have said that your spoon didn't count but your mate Nick87 sure tried to.

A premiership every 12.5 years as opposed to every 10.7. You guys are absolutely streaking away :sarcasm:.

LOL!

This thread has gotten so long because Knoughts fans so desperately want to ignore the fact that, in terms of success over the past 10 years, you've had just as much as us.

Now you want to talk ancient history, but there's just one problem. The Knoughts never had a dynasty like the Raiders did. The Knoughts were never in five grand finals over an eight year period.

You never had what we had.

You never will.

Must suck having to go to such lengths to justify your first* premiership.

But the Broncos beat the half premiers.

What lengths would they be? I haven't even had to link the official record books.

This has been a piece of piss so far to be honest. As arguing facts usually are mind you. You're the ones that have the tough job of convincing us the record books are wrong. And so far we've had 'Brisbane beat you 8 months later'. I think that's what the kids call a fail.

And still can't get their heads around using the asterisk correctly. Tsk tsk.

 

[perverse]

There's something wrong at club level?

We didn't need a fat miner to bail us out.

Can't see the Knights listed there.

I'm not talking financially, I'm talking about all the nepotistic buggery and circle-jerking that goes on there. Look how long you guys stuck with Furner because he was one of the boys. Amateur hour.

The message from the club is that they are satisfied with mediocrity. Ouch.

This thread has gone on so long because you're a bunch of insecure ponces, just like every other year Rugby League forums have existed.

Well no, you could have just left it at your first post about it being in the record books and had the same impact as the pages of posts you've made on the topic.

But the simple fact is, that you know that most people don't regard it as a legitimate premiership regardless of what the history books say.

If you're happy that your team needed half the clubs out of the comp to win it, then good for you.

And yet it's the Raiders fans that are so desperate to reassure themselves that they're not the most unsuccessful team of the past 20 years that they keep beating a dead horse and trying to argue with the record books and popular view that the Knights were the premiers 17 f**king years ago.

Goodness me. You are dishing up some seriously pathetic banter here perverse.

You're the one that didn't know your own team had won a wooden spoon.

I probably should have. But God help me sometimes I just can't help arguing with special people who refuse to acknowledge facts.

But the simple fact is, that you know that most people don't regard it as a legitimate premiership regardless of what the history books say.

Oh, is that what I know? Cheers, I wouldn't have known what I know if it wasn't for you.

If you're happy that your team needed half the clubs out of the comp to win it, then good for you.

Again, not our choice that you and a few others pissed off to the Super Duper League. But cheers, it is good for me. Premierships usually are good for fans of the winning team.

Recycled what? I'm sorry if I haven't been able to keep up with this enthralling discussion of lol's, smiley faces and such, I do have work to do too.

Clearly you're paying more attention to this than I.

What was there to respond to other than laugh at your butt-hurt response?

Like I said, you'll never have what we had.



LOL!

I knew we "won" a spoon... just as i know you "won" a trophy in 1997. As said, i dont think many people actually recoginise either.

We had to be basically legislated by the sydney clubs to come last to gain entry into the NRL and you had to have most of the top clubs and players removed from the competition to win.

1997*
