CROSS FORUM NRL 2023 Round 8 Discussion

Titans are notorious for crumbling and giving up big leads.

By all means they deserve credit for the win, but I don't agree it was as amazing a comeback as being made out to be. Titans are a worse defensive side then even the Tigers.

They equalled an NRL record with a team of nomads.

I think its a pretty amazing comeback for a side like the Dolphins. Lets face it, when was the last time you can remember any side coming back from 26-0 down, even against the Titans? I think they said in commentary it was the Tigers in 2001 with the next biggest comeback of 24 points against Newcastle. Or maybe the Cowboys, cant remember now.
 
Realistically that would seem to be two bottom 8 clubs playing with the Phins a chance of sneaking into the finals as they have a real backbone.

When you look at it, its was a shocking first half from the Phins, and then when the Titans got put under pressure they collapsed. In reality, two not great sides, but one didnt give up under adversity.

tbh the coach may have been the difference im sure WB would have told them to keep it simple
either way great win to the dolphins
 
I turned it off at halftime, turned back on with 10mins to go, what the **** Titans! RIP my tipping AGAIN this week, FMD.

Round 12 1998 Cowboys came back from 26-0 down to beat the Panthers 36-28.

The Dolphins equalled that record this afternoon.

An expansion side have no business chasing down a 26 point lead. They also have no business being settled in the top 8 after a third of the season. Give credit where credit is due.

You know what fair enough, I'll recognise the achievement for what it is, well done Dolphins As for an expansion side having no business being settled in the top 8 after a third of the season, Storm funnily enough were 2nd on the ladder at that stage or there abouts, they made the eight that year. Maybe they might reproduce that.

Damn Turbo might need to get a new nick name. He’s the slowest player out there
