Message: [QUOTE="Huge, post: 3145199, member: 1992"] Ok folks, it's time for the truth. We ARE being shafted when it comes to PENALTIES RECEIVED. There is no need to discuss here the penalties we concede, I'm only concerned with the ill discipline of our opponents. Some facts which won't surprise you if you've watched the Broncos since day one. The following is over the life of the Broncos, 31 years excluding 2020. ☆We've NEVER received the most penalties in a season. ☆ We've been last five (5) times, fewest received. ☆ We've been second last four (4) times ☆ We've been third last two (2) times ☆ We've been fourth last six (6) times ☆ We've been fifth last two (2) times ☆ We've been sixth last four (4) times So, 23 of 31 years we've been bottom 6 for penalties awarded. Amazing. That's not unlucky, that's deliberate. Our best you ask? 2011 when we received the second highest number of penalties. Next best year was 2009 when we were the fourth highest. Don't think we went well in the years I've left out either. I just stopped at 6th lowest. 7th 3 times, 8th 2 times. Add them and we've been bottom 8.... 28 of 31 years !!! **** me drunk!!!😯 There was a period where we were awarded the fewest penalties three years running!! 97,98,99. Amazingly that was when the NRL was it's biggest, numbers wise. 20 team comps!!! Okay, the stats I've provided may contain mistakes but are not totally corrupted and I'm only as good as the data, my eyesight, my math but it's probably very close to accurate. Think about it, 28 of 31 years, bottom 8 for penalties. I'd think it reasonable if we were top 8 for half the time and bottom 8 the other or close to that but I'm not a stats guy but I know some of you are so, tell me what you think. [/QUOTE]
