Wasn't confident of a win heading into the game so happy to take the win.

It's a rare season in which Penrith have hit the 12 win barrier (50%)

fmd they start playing footy with 10 to go! feel for lafai, should be in a better team.

i don't remember hodkinson setting up any tries this year with his ball playing. anyone know how many try assists he has this year that aren't from kicks??? would be very interested to know.

We always leak points in the last 15-20 minutes of most games.

Twas our defense in the first half and the great second half start that put the dogs away.

And it was a very tired Panthers outfit that let the dogs within 6 points.

But 2 more comp points now sees us as locked in for the finals.

Need 1 more win to be sure I'd say. Tonight was a scrappy game but they finished with 15 and still won comfortably despite the 6 point margin in the end. They should win at least a couple more games. 3 out of the last 5 would be solid given the injuries.

Good win to grab, as wins are going to be harder to grab with a growing injury toll at the wrong end of the season. But our Premiership hopes are non existent. Too many injuries to the wrong players.

They always were. We are like Manly, scraping into the finals in 2005 in a very flakey 8th place after several years as cellar dwellers. They have not missed the finals since, and have won a couple of comps and look like doing it again.

Full strength there's an outside chance. But no Peachey, Taylor, Wallace, Cartwright? and John. An outside chance would be good. Now it's a ridiculous long shot

Nobody thinks we can win the comp. Not even our fans. It's Manly's comp to lose to be honest.

We can't exactly proclaim ourselves as likely premiers after leaking three tries in the dying minutes. We're a year or two away from that just yet I think.

Mate, who cares about the Premiership. We'll play a final or two.
Cartwright, Moylan, Yeo, Smith. The next decade looks good.
We might even shut up a few of the death-riders.

I completely give up on the refs. They are either incompetent, bias or plain geniused.
