What, you mean the Northern Eagles were statistically better than the Crushers? Didn't seem like it at times.....

Thankfully the Beaver was still scoring tries back then. And that we had a guy like Ben Walker who was Matthew Ridge like in his goal kicking accuracy.

You now have to go even further back than the SQ team of 1995 as their points scored after 6 games was higher than the Dragons current total.

After 6 games in 1995.....Manly was sitting pretty, undefeated and on top of the ladder. Our F/A was 200-60. Defending premiers Canberra (SL defectors and all that) were also undefeated, but our F/A was superior to their 139-54.

We had defeated:
Souffs 42-18 (SFS), Gold Coast 28-8 (Seagulls), Norths 30-0 (NSO), Gold Coast 36-10 (Brookie), Auckland 26-14 (Mt Smart) and the Crushers 38-10 (Brookie).

Our leading try scorer to that point was Hoppa with 5 (Tooves had 4, the Beaver, Danny Moore and Ridge 3 each). Ridgey was sitting on 68 points from 3 tries and 28 goals (28/31).

I don't mind laughing at the Eels because the Dalai is a thieving arsehole who took our stupid arsehole and our sooky, lying arsehole.
And I don't mind laughing at the Roostera because they cheated us out of our 2013 GF victory.
And I love ya guts @Mark from Brisbane
But isn't it a bit mean laughing at the poor old Dragons when they're down?

Hard to do the Lol@Dragons but you have to admit 62-0 in two games is fairly funny!!
