'10 | R6 | Sun | Warriors 12-40 Panthers | Mt Smart

[Kilkenny]

The Panthers do not have a great record against sides which tend to throw the ball around, ad lib, high offloads and second phase play. The Warriors are capable of playing in such a fashion and we will have to be at our best to have a reasonable chance of winning this one away from home. Our overall record against the Warriors is pretty good so hopefully the boys put there best foot forward.

Wow one good game and suddenly Penrith are looking great.

yeah, kinda reminds me of that post you made 3 years ago..:roll:

warriors in a close one..

No Vatuvei, Price or Mannering. Our team looks stronger on paper imo, but whether or not that will pan out on the field i don't know. Panthers by 6

Panthers have the stronger team on paper for sure and looked great last week, but we're going alright too...

Winner leapfrogs both the Titans and Wests Tigers on the ladder.

 

[Tipster]

Panthers relying too much on kicks to score tries.

 

[Rovelli]

Warriors win the Toyota Cup clash 58-10, scoring 11 tries to 2. Back-to-back wins now for the U20s, albeit against teams that are struggling.

Lazy start by the Warriors.

Panthers 6-0 after 6 mins.

 

[thommo4pm]

stupid penalty given by the Warriors...on the 4th tackle after conceeding a try...silly stuff.

 

[wittyfan]

Go Locke!

 

[DragonPunk]

Warriors playing horrible atm and Penrith making them pay.

 

[Danish]

Don't know what Tate is doing laying down the law in the huddle.... he's missed tackles on all 3 panthers tries.

 

[wittyfan]

Is Tate captain today? Or is it Mannering? Or Luck? Or Pricey???

 

[Danish]

unbelievable call there with the double knock on.... cost the warriors a try IMO

 

[Danish]

Jesus christ how was that a knock on as well....


AND HOW IS THAT A PENALTY!!!


warriors dont need this sort of refereeing when they are playing so bad to begin with. 18-zip after 30 minutes

 

[KeepingTheFaith]

A few things come to mind.

1) First time the Warriors have played a full strength/in form team while being heavily depleted. They've gotten away with injuries because the opposition have been either injured or down on form as well.

2) Penrith have a bigger pack, so they drop Packer and replace him with a back. Now they'll have a lock playing prop (Lillyman) a hooker playing second row (Henderson) and an extra back doing nothing when a forward would've been smarter. Not to mention that it caused a prop (Latimore) who has only been averaging 20-25 minutes a game to start. Dumb selections there.

3) For all their dominance and possesion, the Panthers can still only score from kicks.

4) The Warriors are looking flat and are just playing crap.

 

[skeepe]

Waterhouse is deadset having a nap out there every time he makes a tackle.

 

[pantherz9103]

We are the no 1 team in the league for tries from kicks

 

[Noa]

warriors are great value for this margin, but badger is the star of the show.
