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

Yeah 19 losses on RL Project.

Should do the Kiss of Death Medal for teams that concede most 50 point losses in a season.
It all went downhill for Dr Death after he left Canberra at the end of 1995.

Played for the Cowboys (1996-98), Warriors (1999-2001) and the Rabbitohs (2002-04) when those teams were bog ordinary at the time (2001 being the exception, when the Warriors scraped into 8th position on the end-of-season-ladder, only to get flogged 56-12 in the first week of the finals)

Brainstorming today, how would Mark Minichiello rate on the 50 list. Was at Souths when they blew chunks then had a long career with the titans. 250+ first grade games.

If correct then its somewhat fitting that its Jason Death. The JD medallion.

I used to start him at 9 in the 2003 Rugby League game. Playing a whole season as Souths was tough work.

We need a new thread about how many weeks before your first win means you can't win the premiership. It's not right that the saints aren't eliminated yet.

I believe there is two stats that do rule them out.
No team has lost 5 of their first 6 and won the comp.
And no team has lost 6 in a row and won the comp.

5 losses in a row and recovered to win the premiership has been done twice that I'm aware of, Broncos '06 and Storm '12.
