    State of origin series

    Yeo doesnt seem to be the type to have bad blood with someone and he played with reggie a lot more than anyone else, seems possible to me Luai/Cleary dont like Reggie but yeo does. That being said it seems possible to the whole bad blood thing was rubbish to begin with.

    State of origin series

    stinks of a bit of desperation tbh. I know Brandy said last night they have been looking at Best for a while but bloody hell i cannot beleive that, he has been pretty bad all year besides the dogs game. Cody at least has been in good form. Luai dropping is harsh but at least there is an argument...

    Panthers lower grades thread 2023

    We didnt lose because of Henry and Smith, the whole team was shit that game. The entire pack got beat. Smith has done great for us despite not being an impact bench player by your definition, no reason Henry wont be able to do the same if he keeps working hard. If one of the other young props...

    Panthers lower grades thread 2023

    I think we get to caught up in looking for certain types of impact, you can impact a game in a lot more ways than just running over someone. Lindsay has done a fantastic job for us off the bench and he is a similar effort type player. Dont get me wrong having spencer come off the bench is...

    Very impressive. A big offseason and he should raring to go in 2024.

    Yeah it’s hard choice obviously he backed himself to improve the joint but in hindsight with how we are going this year another year or two here wouldn’t have hurt his job prospects at all. Anyway if things get really bad I’d happily take him back.

    Ciraldo could be here working in a happy hard working environment with very coachable players in a fairly pressure less position(compared to being head coach) but he took the dollars from the dogs, is it worth it? Yeah head coaching jobs are rare but he’s young and staying here would’ve kept...

    2023 R18 Sun - Canterbury 0-66 Newcastle @ Accor

    Yeah there seems to be a lot of instability there with the roster. It doesn’t take much to get guys to stop buying in. At the same time someone like Webster at the warriors has got big improvements out of them without any massive signings unless you count niukore, so it can happen, it’s just...

    2023 R18 Sun - Canterbury 0-66 Newcastle @ Accor

    It’s not salary cap causing this, dogs have had plenty of money to spend. Burton, Kikau, Mahoney Crichton, addo car, they’ve spent heaps. Tigers have been active in the player market also. I don’t think salary cap is the problem, it’s just difficult to build a winning culture, takes more than...

    Rd 18 v Storm

    Nice to see Lindsay smith getting some wraps in here and in the commentary last night, he really is looking the goods now. His flick pass was a beauty but I’ve mentioned before his quick ptb’s are a real weapon for the team, he consistently finds his front and plays the ball quick like the one...

    Rd 18 v Storm

    The whole team is a defensive beast, the points difference on all our losses combined this year is 12 points. That’s incredible after 18 rounds, multiple games missing the origin boys. Agree with Brandy last night when he said Ivan is not getting anywhere near the credit he deserves for what...

    Luais defence has been top Notch this year no doubt.

    Impressive finish to the half, I thought we were gone

    Can’t convince me Luai is worth more than 650k

    Dont mind Huth on the bench for this one. Bit of size and experience against the storm will be good.

    Re Cows, they looked good this week. Last week they were pretty bad against us not just the soft tries but their defence was really bad for that first 50, our guys were breaking tackles for fun and then we shit the bed and once they got a sniff they looked a lot better but if they play like that...

    Cogger so far appears to good to be in cup. That being said when ive watched him in cup he hasnt exactly been a stand out. Wouldnt be against him being used as a back up hooker, he'd be perfect for it if his defence was a bit more solid. Genuine kicking option, good enough passing game and he...

    Dont like the idea of moving Luai during the game, If Soni wasnt to play I think Salmon would be a decent option for Soni's minutes at hooker. He wouldnt be a huge threat running he doesnt have the speed but he would certainly be less shy about running than Kenny is and his passing and defence...

    Didnt watch Melbourne this week but NAS has been spending time on an edge, need to look at how we will cover that especially if he lines up against cogger, Put Martin on him he loves a big fella like that, he can charge him and not have to worry about late footwork beating him.
