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

JT is waiting by the phone....

Centrelink?

 

[TheVelourFog]

anyone saying Tigpies should be banned

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Wouldn't have picked the tigpies to be first out for the season. Tard20 must be moist right now

 

[Maroon4life]

Never change tigers.

Never change tigers.

Or you IBM, unless it’s your alt accounts

Oh man, no team gets 50 put on them without having problems. Parra played out of their skins and Tigers didnt play well. Kicking game was disgraceful but Tigers were on the back foot at the end of every set. It wasnt good, but we still looked better than the JT days.

I just watched the game again for a wank. What struck me this time was how quickly the Tigers got tired. Even accounting for all the work thet had to do early on, a team should be able to absorb that. But they were gone. Maybe they were drained from from the previous two close games. Or perhaps Madge is riding them too hard during the week. One of the complaints about Madge when he was at Souths is that the players were overworked.

Thats possible, but the week before we finished all over the Broncos. We are definitely fitter this year than last, but overworked I wouldnt know.

I saw tired as ‘giving up’

The Tigers have always thrown in the towel as soon as the going got tough. For all the shit we have him Cleary did a very good job at changing this. Madge still has a lot of work ahead of him to change the culture of the club.

I reckon the fvkkers just couldn't be arsed chasing. No heart.

 

[Rhino_NQ]

Madge has been used to getting relieving penalties when the momentum has been well against his side for so long he doesn't have a plan b to battle it

Yeah but they showed plenty of heart the two games before.

Farah wil be appointed coach soon and Benji his assistant

The Tigers 50+ happened in Rd6. Is that the earliest it has happened?

Don't think so. I seem to recall my mob getting 50+ put on us very early in the season in 2005....strangely enough we finished the season as minor premiers but choked in the prelim v the Cows....

Coincidentally you'd also put 50 on the cows.

Never actually expected to win the comp anyway so there is that.....

That’s what a couple of people said in this thread last year, when their team was eliminated.

The Manly v Parra one last year was Round 2

From memory panthers got beat 72-12 in round 1 by the eels back in 2001.
