Well our top 8 chances are gone.

We have no one in our roster to improve the flaws. We can thank Gus for that. Everyone needs to be a millionaire at the expense of our depth.

I guess the fans need to wear some of the blame too though. They all praised Gus for keeping guys on huge deals at the expense of rep players. Apparently it was good management offloading Peachey, CHN, Mez etc. Purely to upgrade guys.

to put it simple a half performed perfectly to Cleary and his coaching style pass 1 to a forward . Go 4 wide and give it to a forward. .When in doubt give it to Kikau. May have worked 10 years ago but not today
Blake on of the best ball hole runners in the Nrl never gets it

We never should’ve rushed to keep Nathan Cleary. We are now stuck with an overrated halfback for 5 years.

He’s earning 1 million per, and he brings nothing in attack. He simply can’t create tries for the team.

Can the next coach we sign have win percentage greater than 50%

I am sick of these 40% duds like Elliott & Cleary.

This is what it is like being a Penrith supporter, i forgot how it felt after the past few years of us being competitive. I love my Panthers but we have some dumb footy players, no game beakers and a total lack of vision, we are so predictable left to right, right to left, drop the ball or kick.

He got put in a hole... off a Raiders kick. Trouble is the second we get a bit of momentum Raiders know we have it and hold on until its snuffed out or they're penalised. Those penalties are actually smart.

Ours are dumb. We give them away ehen we are dominating. For no obvious reason other than being brain dead.

Raiders are really streaky, so we can come back - we just cannot rely on fitness to do it for us - we actually need a game plan, discipline, and execution.

Nathan will come good....Ivan wont be sacked anytime soon by the board that pushed aside Guss and Benny....they'll want to be validated no matter if it takes till year 5. I'm feeling sorry for Nathan in advance for being coach's son though keeping in mind he's already an early 20's many millionare makes my sorrow somewhat less so

Leota with the momentum killer this time.

When Tamou is your only reliable front rower you know shit is bad.
