Both grand finals (1975 and 2008) had 8 tries scored, so its a moot point.
That's right, you tell em. Goals are a figment of all your imaginations!

A long way from home and waay out of their depth.

Well as Brycey pointed out in the NRL forum thread, you have to play with the cards that you're dealt with, not five hands later.
The record books can't change retrospectively because of subsequent rule changes.
Imagine all score sheets going back to 1908 being altered to have tries worth four points. It would certainly open a pandora's box.
For example, in the 1946 grand final Balmain defeated St George 13-12 but Saints scored four tries to three, so in retrospect it was actually 16-all?
And let's not get started on when field goals were worth two points. Eric Simms would have been put back in his box if they only were worth one point.
Always fun to discuss these things, but it borders on the bizarre when folks start to take it seriously.
For premiership deciders, I think the Balmain dummy spit in 1909 might hold that honour.Ok ok. Can we all agree that St George of 1975 made the most pathetic grand final showing of all time?
I can live with the Roosters crying over the record (since it's not there's anymore).
I will just imagine what the score would be against the Bulldogs on May 11 1935.[FONT=Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]
