Only disappointment for me was that Yeo stayed on too long (I think the whole game). We were up by 4 converted tries after 45 minutes.

One small thing and yes it's hard to complain when you win so big but Tago through the middle in that last 30 mins would have been great to see.
Lol..stop gaslighting us Chins
Our own defence has improved since the opening game against the Warriors. With Teddy typically leading from the front, and a improving combination between DCE and Sammy, we'll get the job done. I predict a low scoring game, Roosters 18, Panthers 6.
You are on some seriously delusional drugs cheif..are you ok??

Based on expert analysis for Round 3 of the 2026 NRL season, the Sydney Roosters v Penrith Panthers clash is widely seen as a blockbuster matchup with the Sydney Roosters entering as slight favourites to win, despite Penrith's dominant recent history in the fixture.

  • Betting Perspective: While Penrith has dominated the recent head-to-head (11 wins from the last 12), early 2026 betting markets favor the Roosters as a "smart" play or tight underdog.
  • Panthers Form: Experts note the Panthers are no longer deemed the same defensive force, having conceded high scores recently, allowing 28.3ppg at times during 2025/early 2026.
  • Roosters Momentum: The Roosters are coming off a period where they have shown, as they did in early 2025, an ability to overcome Penrith through sheer effort and capitalizing on opportunities.
  • Key Matchup: The battle between fullbacks Dylan Edwards (Panthers) and James Tedesco (Roosters) is viewed as a critical point, particularly regarding Origin contention and leading their respective teams.
  • Verdict: Expect a tight, high-intensity game where the home ground advantage for the Roosters may be the deciding factor.
Tight as Bonnie Blue..
