No team has ever won the premiership after conceding 50pts in a regular season match

[Dogs Of War]

Has a team ever won the comp after conceding 50 points in one half?

Dogs had 50 scored against in a half twice in 1935 and went on to win the comp 3 years later. So maybe they just need to let in another 50 point half this year and hang their hat on winning the comp in 2025.

Bugger.

We would have won the comp if this hadn't happened.

Could it be? Yes, it could
Somethin's comin', somethin' good, if I can wait
Somethin's comin', I don't know what it is
But it is gonna be great

RIP Newcastle. That Ponga contract is looking like a poisoned chalice with every game.

Meh, guaranteed cash. Doesn't have to try too hard, 'bad team' excuse.

Dammit. I thought we were a shoe in for the comp before Paps took the 2 at the end there.

I like them for 2024... check their form since 1974 in years ending in 4.

Has any team lost to the 2022 Tigers and Bulldogs and gone on to win a premiership? Asking for a friend.
