The tigers are always looking to find excuses. In some cases injuries can help a side look at us Matt moylan Issac John all playing great after getting there shot due to injuries. Of the injuried tigers inwould rate farrah as the only one you could not replace. If he is out it is a huge loss for them

 

[TV Ted Ellery]

Mckendry is injured and he's better then any of your forwards that are out. Coote is better then any tigers halves that are out and Mansour is only just back for Windsor and is better then any Tigpies backs.

So over the poor media darling Wests Tigers

The last time the two teams played they were each close to full strength and the Tigers won convincingly. Look, I have no illusions about the team's ability, they're bog ordinary, but I also think Penrith fans are being cocky. Coote is a decent fullback but he hasn't adjusted well to the halves. Mansour is on par with Ashyford et al and McKendry is no better than Galloway. Don't kid yourself.

Lets not rain on their parade Ted,they are far superior than us,and the side I named in the earlier post who are all out injured are all useless,lets all hail the kings from the mountains,what are a great side they are,we are no chance we may as well forfeit,god help them if they lose to our mob.
Where the hell is Mick and the other sensible Penrith supporters gone.

You guys could work for channle nine

 

[Vic Mackey]

Wow don't know where all this panthers arrogance has come from. Ive generally found penrith fans to be the best of any supporter base, whether they are top or bottom of the ladder. One guy whinging about the tigers getting sympathy cause of injured players and saying they shouldn't, then saying penrith should lol.

Oh well If farahs out it should be penrith by as many as they like.

 

[umina panther]

No arrogance I know Penrith aren't a top 8 side. Just hate the way the media wanks over a mediocre Tigers team and nothing is ever their fault

 

[Scotty03]

Don't throw us all in the "arrogance basket" because of a few overly confident supporters.

I for one fear a Tigers team that has nothing to loose.
The moment you walk into any game thinking you've won, it tends to be a long day at the office.

Yes, the pennies are playing well to date and shouldn't have an excuse come game day. Regardless of the scoreline Panthers V Tigers is always an entertaining match.
I'm sure the Tigers will be better than they have been in recent weeks, so I'm just hoping our Panthers don't go in under done.

A week off for us may be the best thing the Tigers could of hoped for. A break in our momentum could be on the cards.

But on current form i'd go;

Panthers - 26
Tigers 8

M.O.M - Tim Grant

Nothing arrogant just hate the poor Tigers routine. Given the amount of disruption we have Both lower grades in breakaways's at the top of the ladders. Yet poor Tigers.

Look at the lack of experience in our team. We have players playing that weren't any chance of getting a game pre-season. It's across all grades like you guys are. Only we just do the job not complain

 

[SharkShocked]

Wests Tigers fan mate of mine sent me an email today stating he could almost name a side based on the players missing through injury.

"
1. Tedescoe
2. Tuquiri
3. Lawrence
4. Ayshford
5. Utai
6. ----
7. Moltzen
8. Galloway
9. Farah
10. ------ If only Blair was added to the list
11. B Thompson
12. M Bell
13. L Fulton
"

I lol'd

 

[Vic Mackey]

Potter and farah on numerous occasions have said that they aren't blaming injuries and the team just hasn't been playing well enough. Not once have they blamed injures or refs for a loss this year.

 

[franklin2323]

Get glasses and read his post he said at the MELBOURNE game

Roberts is back wow where was he in the 1st 10 weeks? You missed the game that Tighe missed injured, Naiqama, Ciraldo and Mansour went down oh also Robinson killed by Jeremy Smith. No matter all are terrible still left us with no bench and we lost by 2

Coote gone since Round 2. Latimore gone since round 3. McKendry out til who knows when all were locked in our top 17. Humble again terrible but was starting 5/8th when he went down.

Austin, Cherrington, Cook, Eisenhuth out of Windsor long term.

NYC won last week with DWZ, Jennings, Scarlett, Foster, Cartwright, Mosely, Smith out.

Though that's footy not much point complaining.

On this game. A danger game for us the bye might of stopped momemtum but on paper we should win

 

[gronkathon]

Masada is just such shite.

With Robbie confirmed out with a fractured cheekbone and broken nose I really hope he gets lost on his way to the ground

 

[gronkathon]

On the injuries. They suck.

But it is about turning up, giving 100% and the results will wash where they will

 

[the dude]

Injury is the result of poor form and poor training in my opinion. A bit of bad luck, but to have 30 blokes injured across 3 grades tells me something is wrong.

There's a reason Souths injuries reduced significantly between 2011 and 2012 and it's not just luck.

 

[maple_69]

To be fair, we've had injury tolls the length of Gould's ego for the last decade and this is the first year we've actually handled it well.

 

[PinkPanther]

Can we just agree that both teams have players injured?

That is so right,and us supporters have been saying this for a few years now,we get belted every year,only this year it is worse than normal.

 

[gronkathon]

When the ex coach had to employ a bunch of ex magpies with sweet fa in the way of ability for the work required and TAFE level qualifications it is bound to go straight to hell

 

[Red Bear]

lol@complaining about Ciraldo being injured. That helps Penrith

Anyway no Farah = Tigers incredibly unlikely to win, although their starting forward pack looks reasonable this week. From a NSW perspective I hope both Woods and Grant rip in, both excellent young props.

 

[Puntastic]

This. If one side gets it, so should others.

Tigers have been the f**king NSW media wankfest side for a long time.

Less a dig at the Tigers tbh (who I hold no Ill-will towards as a club) and more the media in general. Isn't really your fault.

Thank you franklin for saving me effort of typing that.

@851 - no Ill-will towards you mate either. Yes, players are back this week and in Windsor. But when they weren't, we never got the same sympathy, and it shits a lot of us off.

Seeing as we can't play 'the media' this week (The idea of Plummy hitting Rothfield is more than a little appealing) you guys will have to do. ;-)
