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

I suppose this isn't a regular season match. Doesn't count.

But it does rule them out of winning this State Championship, however.

I know preseason doesn't count (hence the title of the thread) but this is a crazy result nonetheless, Penny Panthers will definitely be up their this year IMO.

Manly lost a trial 56-10. Won the comp the same year

Correct. This is evidence of the 50 rule having some kind of reverse polarity. The mystery continues.

Being beaten by 50 in a trial match can be considered a blessing. Kind of like a bird shitting on your car.

The 50 is in premiership games though and not tickle and giggle trial matches.

Same as no team that has finished 8th has won the comp. Teams have made Grand Finals from 8th though.

Thinking back I don't think any team won a comp that finished 5th in the old NSWRL Sydney 12 Team Comp - Brisbane won the comp from 5th place in 1993 NSWRL Comp which was a 16 team comp
