Experts will now say if Cleary played score line would be different. And rightly so. Parra usually yoyo from game to game but they’ve managed to to find a new way stuff up within a game

The Panthers were gallant in the second, but our poor defence still has to allow that Panthers team to score with 12 men and no Cleary. They were unlucky really not to score heaps more tries really.

The outcome was over after the send off, the job was done at half time, and after that we slackened off against 12 men, who are still the best team in the comp and deserved respect, which we probably didn't give enough to in the second half. Moses final goal kick sums up the second half application. He just couldn't be arsed if he kicked it or not. The same could be said for his final pass too.

It's hard to say what the result would've been had Cleary not been sent off, because it changed the entire fabric of the contest.

I can't believe someone isn't off Lane's hip everytime he gets the ball, he appears he could pass every tackle..

On a worrying note... Panthers almost kept us scoreless in the second half, despite them being a man down.

That's a sign of a half time reset and good coaching - on their part. Nothing to be proud of there on Brad Arthur's part in terms of showing agility to amend a game plan based changes within a match, in my opinion.

We were going well when it was 13 on 13 though, so credit where it's due... And it's great to get an unexpected win!
