    Trial v Sharks

    I was impressed by Salmon. I haven't seen him play second row before, but I thought he was very good. His ball playing and his short kicking game were also very useful skills in a second rower. I think all the guys who played 80 minutes yesterday are those who are first in line to likely end...

    General Discussion Thread

    I think the issue is more about field position. We have been very effective the last two seasons kicking deep, chasing hard, and then holding down on the first or second tackle, and then with our line speed keeping the opposition in their own end (even if we give away a six again or even two...

    If the DT is to be believed, the NRL is going to roll back the 6 again rule and re-introduce penalties within 40 m of the attacking team's goal line. That will be bad for us if it happens. It will make it much harder for us to keep the opposition away from our own try line, and the stoppages...

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    I still don't think the GF win has fully sunk in for me. I have a smile on my face every time I think about it. Not just the GF itself, but the brutal final series that we got through just to make it to the GF in the first place. I know this will change, but at this point I don't even care...

    Cleary had his shoulder surgery yesterday. Hopefully he is fit and firing come the start of the season. However, realistically it will at least mean not a lot of time practising combinations and set plays with the team. Hopefully Kurt Falls also develops a lot with an off-season under his...

    On a related note I will definitely be watching the replay of the Catalans v St Helens game on Sunday. Apparently it airs live at 4 am Sunday, so I'll have to keep away from any spoilers until I have had a chance to watch the replay. It would be fantastic for Maloney and Whare to win a...

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    I have already watched the replay twice. Both times I watched it I still felt nervous as hell in the last 15 minutes, even though I knew the result...

    91 v 03 v 21

    I feel exactly the same way.

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    I was a ball of nerves all week which reached its peak before kick off. I was on the edge of my seat right to the end of the game and shed tears when the final siren sounded. What a season. I remembered 1991 as a little kid, 2003 as a teenager and think I appreciate 2021 the most given the...

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    Hope everyone manages to get some sleep tonight. It isn't going to be easy for me!

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    Very normal. I am similarly afflicted.

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    It is interesting that Hopgood is the only other forward named in the 21. It suggests that there is pretty much no doubt that Leota or JFH will be playing.

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    I had prepared myself mentally all week for a loss against the Storm (the hope that we might win was, by Saturday night, only a fleeting thought in the back of my mind that I didn't seriously entertain). Now I keep pinching myself today about the fact we are in the GF again, and I am hungrily...

    You and me both. Plus probably the majority of this panther subforum.

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    I thought this was hilarious - a little mix / edit of JFH giving Munster a spank.

    2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

    If we had a fully fit squad I’d be feeling really confident about this game, but the number of players who are injured or potentially not even available next week is what gives me concern. The replays of the injury to TPJ’s knee really don’t look good. Even if he plays, he might not have as...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    It is a big loss losing Leota. Not just because we miss Leota's impact, but because we have to move Martin to the middle, which means Kikau likely starts. Bringing Kikau off the bench has worked well. We can't risk any Kikau errors early in the game. That's a big part of what killed us in...

    2021 Preliminary Semifinal V Storm

    To’o was walking around freely before the game on Sat night. The moon boot is either a precaution to maximise the prospect that he plays, or a ruse.

    Penrith v Souths semi final

    Yeo and Martin not charged. Kikau copping a fine for dangerous contact.
