Was just reading on league live no team has won the comp after conceding 50+ pts in a game that season!! Let's make history happen!!
 
Not surprising. Defence wins premierships and if you are leaking 50 points at any stage you have some serious issues that need addressing, be it structure or attitude.
 
Here's a bit of trivia. Name the side who won the NRL premiership in the same season that they copped the following thrashings

42-8 to Brisbane
46-18 to Canterbury
40-0 to Parramatta
49-30 to Cronulla
38-12 to St George
 
I am hoping we can keep Melbourne to 50 points max this week. We don't want the Eels overtaking us on for and against. If we can manage to get one or two tries we might only slip to 7th.
 
Maybe we should just send Blacktown down there next week, give all our blokes a rest, and make our finals charge the following week from 8th with a -20 differential.

No Smith and possibly no Slater, plus most of our troops back on deck. If we dust ourselves off from the dragons game we should put up a fight.
 
Has Any team made the top 8 with 2 players out the entire season totaling over $1m of salary cap?

Lucky that side only conceded 49 points rather than 50, or they wouldn't have won the competition.
