    Round 3 v Mel

    a few thoughts: - we (fans & team!) should definitely come away with confidence knowing that we still have the collective spirit to dig in & never give up. Despite losing our halfback/general/goalkicker, we pushed the premiership favourites all the way. if anything, Melb would be the ones...

    General Discussion Thread

    Awesome observation Pomoz! Applies to some of our pack as well ie. Liam, Kenny & Soro. Definitely punch above their weight! Using a military analogy, reminds me of the Gurkha fighters - dont even bother because you WILL come off second best!

    General Discussion Thread

    exactly plus gotta keep the little brother down constantly. just make up the numbers for those that matter. how dare a battler rise up & use happiness (in their eyes hubris) to rub faces in it!? someone posted earlier likening it to the cricket analogy when other 'lesser' teams have stood up to...

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    Still trying to recover from last night however I'm surprised that there hasnt been more said about the latest instalment of the Fish Love Tap? This one a bit more subtle so he might be working on a signature move for next season? Looks like he prefers Queenslanders too! Savour the win everyone!

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    some thoughts a couple of days on... - despite being massive underdogs & battered from the eels game, we turned up to show so much heart & grit & would not be denied. everyone stood up & that was very encouraging. i liken it to our 2014 semi final win vs roosters. so gutsy & IMO up there with...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    Agree it's hard to hate on Momo because he has solidified the backline plus he made some tough carries out of trouble however I'm not as convinced with him defensively or see him as a better defensive option over Crichton at centre. I'm pretty sure Olam made a couple of half breaks on him...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    Regarding our clunky attack & needing to use TPJ more effectively reminded me of this moment in the weekend's game where he was held up over the line... He naturally attracts defenders so will open up spaces in the defensive line which we failed to take advantage of here. Same has been said...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    perhaps an obvious thing however PSA to markers defending our line: please anticipate Brandon Smith to dummy & barge over. stay low to get underneath him & numbers on top to ensure he doesnt wriggle his way out.

    Penrith v Souths semi final

    agreed! we have to play as if we wont get any calls our way. need to show more patience, be smarter with our kicking game & rely on our fitness to outlast the opposition. Fatigue & pressure should translate into errors & possession in our favour & then grind our way through. we wont be...

    Penrith v Souths semi final

    some thoughts after letting the intensity of the disappointment settle overnight: - that's the flattest we've looked in recent memory. unsure if we were complacent from the hype & thought we could just go through the motions/pace ourselves, were heavily fatigued or (heaven forbid!) had...

    Round 23 V Souths

    some observations: - best game for Kikau in a long time. he does seem to be putting his hand up & perhaps acknowledging his lack of input in recent times. He also looked to have plenty left in the tank towards the end of the game with those two massive defensive efforts on Koloamatangi & Tatola...

    Round 12 V Dogs

    This reminds me of a chat I had a few years ago with one our ex-forwards. His child was at the same children's birthday party as mine & no one knew who he was so it was the perfect opportunity to approach him for a friendly chat. Talked about stuff that was circulating around in the media at...

    Round 5 vs the Raiders

    my 2 cents with some likely repeated thoughts captured in previous posts - despite having a horrendous first quarter we still had enough heart to overpower & effectively crush a serious contender. a lot of kudos to our s&c team. there is also a lot of self belief & confidence (something that not...

    GF Panthers vs Storm

    Struggling to comprehend why we came up with our worst performance of the season but the signs were there. My 2 cents... - if anyone saw the coin toss, Tamou didnt actually know what to do when he won it & Smith was just laughing at him - talk about starting slowly & giving confidence to the...

    LU Panthers Forum Player of the Year 2020

    Edwards - 8 - safe under the high ball pressure in the 2nd half plus strong runs, support play & positioning at the back top notch. Still has a mistake in him & last night was the strip in the opening minutes. Put that away & it's a 9 Mansour - 7 - huge heart with the toughest of carries...
