Penrith got to beat Manly next week

 

[typicalfan]

I think the scoreline is fair. Storm forwards really won the battle and Penrith threw not a lot at the Storm.

 

[pantherz9103]

For all the encouraging signs, still just 5 wins from 12- same as this time last year. Season on the line against Manly.

 

[TheFrog]

Better second half, pity about the last try though.

If there's anything positive to come from this game for us its that we don't have to play them again.

 

[STORM.99/07]

Too easy Storm. Great little practice match for Storm

 

[Munted]

Soward sooks almost as much as Munted

Passionate

This one was more Melbourne's great defence and attack rather than Penrith being woeful. Unforutnately for us, our attack was nullified by storms defence.

 

[PenrithPanther45]

according to foxsports carty made 39 tackels and missed 1 good on him

 

[footy75]

Penrith looked bloody good 3/4 weeks a go..

Losing to the Titans at home is gona come back and bite them.

Manly at Brookvale won't be easy but win it and it's back on track, lose and all of a sudden it's going to be a massive battle to make finals.

Hpefully they can get up.

 

[STORM.99/07]

Good luck for the rest of the season penrith

Good win by Storm against an up and coming team who gave it their vest shot,but the quality between both sides was obvious.

A full strength Panthers side would have won this game,and at least we have another platform to build upon.

Manly will be no bother for us next week...a couple of wins,and we'll be back on track.

Thanks STORM,and the same for your team...although you wont be needing too much as it is.

Don't forget 9th is probably going to make the 8.

Could finish 11 & 13...& still be there.

 

[STORM.99/07]

Hi Gong Panther. Take heart in the fact that your losing streak to Melbourne in Melb is not as bad as the dragons, they have not won in Melb since 99

 

[moffla]

Satisfied with that. Didn't exhaust ourselves and got the win. Panthers looks okay - they'll get there

 

[JamesRustle]

Panthers were average. Won't be pushing for top 8 on the back of that.

 

[Card Shark]

It's all relative- were playing a very good team!

yep, good point.

 

[GongPanther]

Melbourne are so well coached and disciplined,the Cows are the only team in this comp that stand between them and the title.

Long way to go (why are people writing the Panthers off if we lose to Manly next week?) so really,injuries will continue to play its part in the finals makeup.

Overall,although we were outclassed,I'm still proud of the effort we put in.Can't really ask for much more than that...effort.
