Opinion Penrith

[soc123_au]

they are definitely the best side ever under the 6 again rule

I'd say 6 tackle rule.

 

[Wb1234]

I'd say 6 tackle rule.

Win this year and id include unlimited tackles too

 

[Mr. Shaman]

When anybody can honestly claim that their club has never had a trainer indiscretion then they can comment!
the anti Penrith comments on these forums is getting out of hand and bordering on slanderous.

Nope. Dragons of 1956 to 1966 still hold that record in my book. Also are a few teams who went whole seasons undefeated that may give thje Panthers a run for their money.

5 in a row with a salary cap has us well past that dragons side if we can do it.

Penrith have been an incredible side the last 4-5 seasons but my god the comp is soft if they win it again this year, including my team

Best get in early to soak up the atmosphere.

No road trip for me. Mexican food, warm apple pie for desert and a case of 1664 Kronenbourg.

A happy Penrith day indeed.

All teams can only play what’s in front of them. It makes me laugh when people say it’s a soft comp or the worst they have ever seen, yet only the Panthers have won the last 4 years.

You would think if it was that soft a Comp someone else should’ve won one in the last 4 years. It says more about how shit the other teams are really if that’s the case.

well yeah thats my point... considering how much talent you guys have lost in the last few years, you really shouldn't be challenging for a premiership again

 

[DIOGENES]

Yeah, right
The competition when the Saints won was limited to a small area of Sydney. Parramatta were the team furthest from the CBD.
I am old enough to have seen St George beaten by Newcastle Division in the 1963 state cup. Maybe the best team in Sydney but not the best in NSW let alone Australia and New Zealand.

Using that logic of losing a one-off game then St Helens and Wigan who beat Penrith in the world club challenge were the best teams in the world in those years.

Just appreciate teams in their own era. Can't compare the game played over 50 years ago with the rules of today.

Same with the Dragon's when people say it was part time or only a Sydney comp. If winning 11 in a row was easy why has no team come close (next best was Souths with 5 in the 1920s).

The big difference being Salary Cap and rules when comparing eras.
