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

[Eelectrica]

I wonder if a team has scored 50 and won the spoon? Titans now spoon proof?

 

[ParraEelsNRL]

Are we about to add another in about 40 mins?

Problem with these rule changes is that 50 points is not as big of a scoreline as it once was. Wouldn’t be surprised we start seeing some 70 point thrashings this year.

 

[This Year?]

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.

I'm still sticking with the "conceding 50 points" logic only. In that the Dragons are still in it to win it in 2026.

Jokes aside - not going to happen. For obvious reasons that we are crap.

And ignoring that fact that no team has won from 0-6 to start the season. But there's no topic in here for that. So i'm going to ignore that fact. lol.

Sounds like us.

 

[Marshall_magic]

And the two teams didn’t play each other again until 2024

Agreed. it will get broken this season!

To make things a little more interesting week by week, we could try guessing how many 50s are going to happen on that weekend. For this weekend, I'm going conservative and saying 0 or 1.

I'm suprised Vlandys hasn't requested this rule be changed to keep fans of lesser teams more entertained.
