    Round two vs the Dragons.

    It was a good second half to your team, they could have a good season. I personally didn’t think the sin bins were 100% but I thought Burgess could of had 1 for that elbow. To me the reason you lost was the grubbiness. Your ruck was just as bad as ours but instead of getting on with the job...

    Round two vs the Dragons.

    The dragons will be pumped for this week. They will going for back to back wins and aiming to take down the premiers to prove to everyone they are no joke. Throw in a bit of old spice between the coaches as well. They will be ready.

    Round two vs the Dragons.

    He needs way more first grade minutes to progress. Hopefully he makes the most out of the opportunity and can lock himself into the squad.

    Round two vs the Dragons.

    I think Spencer’s problem is he hasn’t been given big minutes. He still has that raw energy of a kid on debut trying with every play to justify his spot in the squad. The approach to his development has really been strange, maybe there is something the coaches are worried about with him.

    Round two vs the Dragons.

    I agree with smug, the 4th spot on the bench should be for a young gun. A stable bench of Kenny (if he is the plan for next year)or Sos, Sorensen and lenui should remain with the 4th spot rotated through players like hopgood, May or Maverick. Ivan’s rotation always has someone with limited...

    2022 Rnd 1 Panthers V Manly 10th March 2022 Penrith Park

    Our forwards were amazing , they gave O’Sullivan the time and space he needed to get in the game. Big shout out to Tago, I loved that tackle of Turbo, almost cut him in half. Crichton really got involved and kikau ran straight and hard, both were fantastic. Couldn’t ask for a better start, we...

    2022 Rnd 1 Panthers V Manly 10th March 2022 Penrith Park

    It will be a tough first game. With or without Cleary I think the squad needs to come up with some new attacking spark. We won’t have as easy a time this year pinning teams in their 20. I felt that opposition had figured us out by the end of last season, our points dropped away a bit, and we...

    Eels trial.

    I thought Tago was our best on the field but we can’t expect miracles straight away, he will be caught out in defence more than once this year. Not seeing Lenui in the trials leaves a big question over the prop rotation, who is the 4th ? I personally like Leota coming off the bench, I guess we...

    Eels trial.

    One thing that does worry me is how invisible luai and Crichton can be in the games. There was obviously no forward momentum to play off but they are big $$$ players. We should be seeing more from them in difficult situations.

    Eels trial.

    Not much for us to take out of this game, score line reflects a first grade team Vs a reserve grade. I must admit parramatta have looked very good in attack. They have taken advantage of good display from their forwards. I thought tago has looked good, Staines has done a decent job, nobody else...

    Season '22

    Plenty of players will want to play for the champions. A chance at finals footy, rep honour's, even just to bump their resume up to maybe land a gig overseas. We can pick and choose really. Experienced players having seen the success of capewell, Sorenson, momorovski and even tpj had with us...

    Tyrone May

    May didn't have to do anything except stay quiet and collect his $250,000 a year paycheck. The narrative that it he is not having a fair go by the social or normal media is ridiculous. He didn't have to use social media to pass on what he was feeling, talking to people would have done the job...

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    Is it just me or does the world seem to be a better place than it was yesterday? My whole body is aching from the stress, excitement and the other million emotions it went through yesterday. Feels great

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    It was meant to be. We did it the tough way, just like most of us from the west have to do to succeed.

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    I was screaming for repeat set's yesterday, but it looked like it deliberately wasn't in the play book. We tried the inside ball to Edwards 3 times which was a very clunky and awkward play, and were caught on the 5th about 4 or 5 times in their 10. The other thing which was odd was the amount...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    He really rattled the storm in that first 15 minutes. I love his aggression, and I have been pleasantly surprised at the lack of penalties from him.

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    Amazing game. That extra effort and heart is what has taken us from an ok team to a great one. Not a bad player on the ground, and some inspirational moments from a lot of players. My favourite moment was the Hughes chase down, sorrenson and the Fish gave everything to be there. So proud and...

    Agreed, TPJ was great.
