Ahem..........eelavation said:Mzilikazi said:I look at it this way:
If you assign 6 points (the equivalent of a try) for a premiership and subtract 1 point for every wooden spoon, the current score is
Manly 36
Parramatta 4
That's fairly comprehensive.
:lol: :lol:
why! don't we subtract 30 points for every year you weren't in the comp between 47 and 05
wouldn't the score be Parra 4
Manly - 36
I base it on the Northern Eagles being one of the worst business decisions in the history of the league and equivellant to subtracting 30 points!! ayear that Manly weren't in the comp.
Mzilikazi said:Basically, if you take 6 years out of Parramatta's 58 year history and they'd be a joke bigger than the Sharks. 52 years of absolute dross! There's little to cheer pre 1981 and post 1986. That's not something to boast about.
(It's a similar scenario if you take 11 years out of St George's 80+ years. 4 premierships in 70 odd years. :lol: AND they're a joint venture :roll: )

Small technicality - the NSWRL wasn't a National competition until the Broncos were admitted. The 20 spoons were before then. ;-)
Not wanting to get into the argument cos its like handbags at 20 paces in here :lol: :lol:
Belly and Eeela could come up with better stuff surely.
