Not a write off yet (getting periously close to it), would love to see Daniel get a shot in first grade sooner rather than later.

What was Tautai doing? He got it handed on a platter to him and he still didnt score. I've been waiting for Parra to click since after the game against us but its just not happening and might not happen this year tbh

 

[parra-matters]

Honestly this year is a write off for Parra. Don't see any reason why not to chuck Kris Keating AND/OR Daniel Mortimer in the halves ASAP. At least it will prepare the club for 2009.

Yeah agree with that, also Hagan needs a rocket from management he really is showing what a lack of ideas he has as a coach like when he had to coach games without Joey at Newcastle. I would put him on notice there are good coaches out there if Hagan can't turn it around.

Cannot see you doing anything. Put Mortimer in the halves, Hayne at FULLBACK and start from there. On form Burt deserves to be nowhere near first grade

I thought you are a Storm supporter now?

Comeon, you know that's a dumb comment :roll: Yes I admire the Storm I like watching them, but I never said I support them as my favourite team. I've been a panther fan for 20 years.

Ahhhh, the curse of Michael "Supercoach" Hagan. Expect to see the masterstroke of putting Lowrie into the five eight spot in the coming weeks.

Eric Grothe Wont be back.

Have a question mark over Hayne at Fullback, a speed hump would be more effective the way Hayne has played in defense this season. (apart from last night)

 

[Dutchy]

20 meter restart should be optional FFS

Crap rules just cost Panthers a try...Punished Penrith for good play!

Well he is better at fullback than in the centres..who was the idiot who decided the bloke would be a centre because if it was Hagan he should go ASAP. Hayne was brilliant in the finals at fullback, not as if Burt is kicking fantastically for goal anyway!

 

[Dutchy]

Penrith copping a raw deal from the ref tonight.

 

[Penance]

this ref is a joke

 

[Glenn]

Until Ben Smith is back (should be within the next couple of weeks), can't see Hayne being moved from the centres.
Ideally would like to see Tony Williams promoted, but has the habit of going AWOL for most of the game and then switching on for about 20mins. (Sounds like the rest of the FG this year.)

Parramatta doing it easy now up 22-14

 

[Penance]

26-14, lol

 

[pantherz9103]

god this sucks, we were going well but not getting luck and now the Eels are killing us. Oh well Eels in form now probably on their way to another preliminary final choke.

 

[Dutchy]

26-14, lol

No Wins, lol

A few points so far...

1. Where is benefit of the doubt for Smith no try
2. Where is penalty for Hindmarsh kicking the ball out while Panthers tried to play the ball? (ANY other time, ANY other game, that would be a penalty)
3. How was Finch not tackled after he passed off the ground? Should have been penalty to Panthers.
4. How was try to Parramatta not a penalty - Wesser had his hand on Paulo the whole time, Paulo's momentum ceased, then he made a double movement to score.

Absolute joke.
