Negative post contact metres because you get driven back every run

Peter Penaia at Canberra for shortest first grade career of all time - pretty sure he took the first hit up off the kick off in his only game, was injured in the tackle and never played first grade again.

Paul McGregor has the rare distinction of coaching over 150 first grade games and not understanding that tries from kicks are still worth 4 points.

That was way down on the list of Mary's deficiencies as a coach.

Watching some baseball this morning the broadcast showed MLB rare feats (individual):
4 home run games - 19
Perfect games - 24
6-hit games - 173
No-hitters - 326
Triple Plays - 739

What would a list of NRL rare feats include?

I am guessing:
6 try games?
60 tackle games (has anyone got 70?)
3 x 40/20s

Anything else like that?

Has anyone ever made all 5 tackles in a set before (haha)?

Rare feet or just gross?

Probably about the 5th or 6th page

James Graham lost 6 consecutive grand finals from 2007-12, and lost 7 grand finals in 8 years (2007-12 and 2014) for St Helens and Canterbury

Speaking of JG, has anyone else ever been done for biting in a Grand Final?

Can we mention rare feats outside the period 2021 to 2024 (inclusive) or must it only relate to these years?

Sure we can, if only to rub in that the smug's 4 in a row isn't even close to a record.

You're in trouble now that you have gone and upset our Smug friends.

My dear friends.

None of us are upset. We are the greatest football team you've ever seen. I'm literally going to be high on this for the rest of my life.

Ben Csliowski? Spelling

Attempting a field goal whilst 2 points down in the era before 2 point field goals.

I don’t think so, only grubbiness on a similar level I can think of was Munster booting some rooster in the head. Although he was a rooster and probably deserved it.

Greg Inglis attempting one but missing
Or Terry Lamb actually kicking one with the Dogs trailing 10-12 and making it 11 -12.

Eels. Player. Brett Kenny
Scoring 2 tries. In 3 consecutive winning grand Finals. Amazing
Unlikely to ever happen again

Bunker getting anything right

The comp didn't exist before 1967 and the introduction of PENRITH. There was some kind of game played like Union but with play the balls., counting anything pre limited tackle is on par with counting a wank in a body count.

That and there was no PENRITH in the comp to stop them.

Bow to greatness and be thankful.

Norm Provan. Only player to play in and win 10 straight First Grade Grand Finals.

That one should stand for a while, Luai only signed for 5 years at the Tigers which only gets him to 9.

Premierships at 3 clubs, 5 in all.
Raiders 1989–90, Broncos 1992–93 and Storm 1999.

Big * for 1990. Salary cap cheats!
