Week 3 Finals: Storms v Ruffs + Silvertails v Rabbits

[hindy111]

I can't see Souths beating this Panthers side next week.

Either can I. Penrith have conceeded 4 tries against the final best 3 teams in comp.
Two.of those tries come off a lucky kick and letting a bomb bounce. I forget how Souths scored but I feel Peno have gone a other level in defense.

They got a lesson in wrestling today. Penrith are the new world champs. How many times did Penrith defenders fall asleep on Storm attackers yet nothing from the Ref.

The game last week was better quality.

Today both teams just layed all over each other. Sutton lost control of both teams tbh

B.Smith did his shoulder but gets ruled out as a HIA. Free interchange. Hmm.

And Luai faked a hia to bluff for a penalty.

Souths will need to be at their very best, will be an interesting match up. At least we don't have to see Melbourne win!

I agree. As much as Gus was blowing his load last weeks game was heaps better.

 

[King-Gutho94]

Look at where they scored and where cleary kicked it what are the refs doing

 

[Oscarman]

Bennett or the Smugfers?? Maybe both teams can get COVID.

I watched fox but seriously its a disgrace a HOF like Gus can be a commentator on games and make comment on stuff when other officials cant even if it isnt relevant to there team.

Massive conflict of interest and now we have to watch channel 9 next week for GF

I think physically Penrith are spent and Cleary is playing injured. He is also on report. Souths to win.

Half as many times as Storm did.

Storm had 55% possession and slowed Panthers down to an even slower play the ball. The 6 agains they got were random let's make this a game calls.

Storm won penalty count. Won the 6 agains. Dominated possession. Yet slowed the play down more and got away with some blatant penalties.

Nope today look at the scoreboard

I watch 9's coverage 4 times a year. 3 x S.O.O. and the GF. Only because Fox do not do these games live.
It's painful.

Two different channels... and the clocks don't match up

Agreed. Conflict of interest is the second name of NRL atm.

Not with the murder Penrith are getting away with. They’re the new Melbourne

 

[eels_fan]

Souths to win imo.

storm were lethargic from the 20min mark. Lost 2 players in the first half, and made 15 errors. They don’t lose Smith, or make 4-5 less errors and they score at least 1 more try.

any of the top 6 would have beaten storm on how they played today, which just shits me even more about last weeks result.

 

[eel01s]

If only....

How would you like to play the Storm with only two men on the bench and over 15 errors?

Bennett will have a field day over the Penrith blockers.

 

[King-Gutho94]

How did luai pass his HIA if it wasnt a preliminary final he wouldn't have come back on.

And btw that munster shot would have been a penalty last week crackdown and concussion out the window in late September obivously

 

[Tooooks]

So glad Storm got knocked out. I have a soft spot for Souths and I don’t mind Penrith.
