hey what do you guys think the best nrl game of all time or season has been?

im not sure about all time, but certaiunly in recent memory id have to say the tigers and cronulla game

cronulla played like they were playing for their lives, steven and noddy were outstanding, especially stevo, true grit and determination, the sharks winning spirit really showed through, they will certainly make the 8

tigers on the other hand, were just sensational

truly sensational


i finished that game so satisfied, the 4 pack bacardi and rum and the 2 hrs of my life was a great investment, that was what rugby league was all about.

its a cliche but these words have never rung more true for me- i finally understood the foundation of that old saying

well done sharks

and well done tigers

Bulldogs v Tigers in R3 was an excellent game. Bulldogs/Broncos both times in 05 was excellent.

Bulldogs vs Tigers this yr is my favourite. Tigers looked home and hosed and were suddenly back to 36-all until Scott Prince kicked a fg.

I remember a play-off for 5th place between the Magpies and Dogs. I was devasted that we lost but was afterwards thinking gee that was a sensational game.

As a Bulldogs fan it's very hard to go past the comeback semi against Parra.

bulldogs produce memories like no other team

like the semi final, something about the gritty play of the dogs makes our tries so much more special

in that era

If you specifically mean nrl then do you mean since 1998 when the game changed from ARL to NRL??

If so the 2003 Grand Final, not just because Panthers won but because it was an outstanding quality game with toughness and high skill level in terrible weather.

Can't say I disagree with you. If we didn't have Chris Walker in the side it would have been closer. I still think you would have won though.

This year i would say Dragons v Roosters ANZAC day. Great game, great crowd. As a Tigers fan our best win would be against Bulldogs rd 3.

I would also mention Penrith's amazing comeback 32-31 win against the Wests Tigers in 2000.

Also Penrith beat Bulldogs 28-26 in a thrilling end to end match at Penrith in 2003

Non Penrith Games?

Bulldogs 29 Brisbane 22 recently was a great game

so too was

Warriors 17 Canberra 16 in the 2003 semi finals

people are just klisting semis and grand finals because the games were important in the large scheme of things


tigers cronulla was better than all of them. but it has less significance being a game in round 20

The Tigers smashed Cronulla though...you'd think one of the best games of all time, or in recent memory would have a bit closer scoreline..

yes but we know the scoreline didnt reflect the game

tht game had everything

even had every style of play

grindy first half
flashy second

can anyone say it was definately not the best game of all time? you might be unsure of it actually being the best, but can you literally disprove it, or mad your mind up?

You're an idiot.
