09 :: R10 Sat :: Panthers 26 Sharks 22 @ CUA

[Selachimorpha]

Penrith really should win this comfortably, but the Panthers are a team capable of inexplicably bad performances at times and could let the Sharks steal one.

Hopefully the Sharks start playing some good footy and win on their own merits, but at this point i'll take a win any way they can get it.

Seymour is out injured and Hughes has been dropped (thank god)

Green is in for Seymour, Caine the likely replacement for Hughes.

 

[Dr Crane]

something tells me i want to sleep instead of watching this game

 

[Timmah]

Jared Maxwell deadset looks like he's wondering who he pissed off in the NRL to get assigned this game :lol:

Penny try, 4-0.

 

[Timmah]

Someone wanna tell the dope with the trumpet that "Goodbye" isn't really the sort of song you play when it's 0-0 after 20 minutes? :?

Another Penrith try, Aiton scores, Sammut converts and it's 12-0... :crazy:

 

[DJShaksta]

Seu Seu forward pass????? my ass it was. Deadset, refereeing is a joke in this competition.

 

[Timmah]

Halftime, 12-6.

Pretty decent game so far, minimal errors from both sides.

 

[Meth]

Great try Pritchard- this guy, when on song and in form, is unstoppable

 

[Apey]

personally I enjoyed his kick over the dead ball line better :lol:

 

[Timmah]

I'm still stumped how they awarded a 20 tap on that one... he knocked it on ffs...

 

[lockyno1]

What is it with crap refs this year..lol at the Green sin-bin

 

[Apey]

They figured it was raked then he just kicked it out so 20 tap..

I thought the strip was pretty fair, but as if he didn't knock it on when he was scrambling with it on the ground afterwards :lol:

 

[Meth]

Gallen just smashed Coote

Panthers win

 

[pantherz9103]

we won but i was less than impressed with how we switched off

 

[BWNB]

Not happy with a few calls tonight, when it rains it pours.
The forward pass?
The Williams knock on? Yes the fox commentators did say during it that they hoped that it would not decide the game. In the end it did. Shame.
O well there were signs of improvement in us.

Yeah definitely some interesting calls, sure looked like a forward pass for the Sharks second last try when the winger went down the sideline. I also like the one where the sharks hooker passed it straight into the his runner who knocked in on like 10m, then the sharks guy picks it up and its play on.

 

[Timmah]

Sharks were definitely unlucky last night, they played bloody well but Penrith really took it up a gear.

 

[pantherz9103]

The Sharks played well last night and I was dissatisfied with Penrith's performance with so many missed tackles. If they had more support for Barrett, Gallen and Tupou then they probably would've won, I'm just relieved they didn't. The Sharks may be last but I think the Roosters are the worst performing team right now. I hope they don't lift against us as well next week.

 

[runatme]

sharks could have had the game won in the opening 6 mins pommeroy hands like feet showed jennings up a bit
some terrible ref decisions in that game

 

[murraymob]

we may not have played that well last night but this time last year penrith would have folded in the second half and lost that game.A win is a win no matter how poorly you play .No bring on the rooters.
Kentucky fried will not be selling much chicken next saturday night because we will dining out on fried rooster bondi special
