No team with shit looking jerseys has ever won a premiership.
Except Wests Tigers. But then it's a fluke they even won a comp.
You know, their fans really get pissed off when people say that... I don't know if fluke is the right word but 2005 will always go down as the weirdest rugby league season I've ever seen... I'm willing to say they deserved the victory but it really was a weird-ish final series without any of the big gun teams there...
They were the best team in the Grand Final, no doubt. I say they fluked it because they managed to come up against 3 teams in the lead up to the Grand Final who were woefully off their game (Cowboys, Broncos, Dragons). Any of those three at their best were far better than the Tigers that year.
But that's the problem with the premiership being handed to the winner of the GF. It leaves it open to a fluke run.
Hell, Canterbury got close in 1998...
And the Broncos won it in 2006
