Not really impressive': Roosters ready to turn tables on Panthers

Isaac Liu has vowed the Roosters will turn the tables on the Panthers if they meet again this year, saying the victors "just played off the back of our errors" on Friday.

Tricolours coach Trent Robinson bristled slightly when asked after the 29-28 qualifying final defeat if minor premiers Penrith, who have now won 16 straight games, were the best team in the competition.

And lock Liu admitted he thought that "whatever they did, it wasn't really impressive" despite the Panthers coming back from 10-0 down.

The Panthers have booked a preliminary final berth while the Roosters will play the winner of Saturday's Raiders-Sharks clash next week. However, Friday's combatants could still meet in the decider.

"[Penrith] just played their game like they did, they just played off the back of our errors, our little mistakes," Liu said.

"We definitely can play better than that. We know that. But if there's a chance we do come up against them [again], we'll make sure we come out on top."

Once the Roosters scored that lucky try to make is 28/22 the Panthers reverted to our usual format no penalties no 6 again no field position. I was worried before the game that the Roosters would bomb our wingers and they had a bit of success BUT I am confident we will fix the problem.

Oh so we played on the back of their errors, twice, in one season? My God, my hatred of that club has gone up a notch.

Not really worried. They're just trying to cover their embarrassment. Also 2 tries on the back of our penalties and Angus Crighton dropped the ball before the Roosters hooker scored.

The Roosters captilised on our mistakes and ill discipline.
They were out on their feet by the end of the 1st half and in the early stages of the 2nd half. We gave them a sniff and they took it.
Quite honestly if it wasn't for nerves and relaxing a little in the 2nd half, we should have won by more.
We dominated them for large portions of the match.

Yea chooks are never graceful losers which makes beating them even more enjoyable. If my crystal ball is working correctly the Roosters will play the Raiders next weekend in Sydney in an elimination final. That will be very physical game and wouldn't be surprised with a few injuries coming out of that meanwhile we have a week off after 20 straight games it should freshen the team up nicely. Kiks out will hurt but let's see if he contests it, seen worse tackles (Billy Slater) get off.

This was the game they had to win. They let Souths win last week thinking they could win this game and the plan has backfired. They'll have to get past Raiders and Storm (who they avoided this week) to play us again and already they are beaten up. This game has ended their reign as the best NRL team, and Robinson knows it. That is why he is so salty.

Exactly. Pride before the fall and all that. It must hurt having penciled us in as a win and getting a fierce contest instead.
