[Allstar Knights]

I shouldn't be saying this as I can't stand the Raiders, but that Vaughan looks like a very good prop.

DWZ will play outside Jamal and Mansour outside Whare I believe.

Fair enough. I would have thought they'd try to get DWZ some of the fantastic ball Simmons has been getting. But that is a lot of pressure on the kid.

Once Idris finds that form again that scares the opposition into committing 4 blokes to tackling him we will see a marked improvement on that flank. Until then, a bloke like Mansour who can make yards of his own accord up the middle seems well suited to me.

Toughest game to pick. Faders capable of the upset but too inconsistent to trust, going the home side by a fingernail.

Panthers 13+

 

[Blues Riff]

IF the teams run out as named, which seem highly doubtful, I'm tipping the Chocky Soldiers by 14.

I'd prefer Vaughan or Boyd over TLL at this point. Good to see Ricky feels the same.

Edit: Just looked up his stats. 111 games in 8 seasons.

agreed
TLL is a fraud at this point... so much money, so little production.

Vaughan is an exceptional young front rower

 

[krappo]

The raiders in a tight one

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Fensom and Edwards are good to go.

 

[Misanthrope]

The Panthers to have too much attacking flair for the Raiders. Should be an entertaining game.

Attacking flair? They haven't scored over 17 points in their last 3 outings.

They're an exciting team to watch offensively. Their flair isn't translating into points, but it's still present.

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Well hopefully that doesn't click this weekend.

I'm a Panthers fan, and I disagree with this. We are functional at best. We must be close to having the slowest back line in the comp.

 

[madunit]

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a high scoring game. Penrith to get home though

 

[bileduct]

Surprised to see Fensom playing after what looked like a nasty injury.

 

[GongPanther]

Funny how we played an ex-Stickky Stuart side in Parra and we get beat.

Now we play a Stuart coached side the week after.

That coupled with the win-loss ratio that a couple of posters earlier noted.

This,if ever,is a game you put your house on Penrith to win.(well, a $1,000,head to head)

 

[Paullyboy]

Canberra tend to play well when we are underdogs, but almost always lose when we are favourites.

I havent seen the odds but if we aren't favourites (which I assume is the case), I give us a real chance to win.

 

[Blues Riff]

Yep, Raiders are the underdogs, won't help you though.
Today shall be ours ;-)

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Fully expecting Milf to school both Wallace and Soward.
