If Soward and Wallace do not play well - Tigers 28 Panthers 18
If Soward and Wallace do play well - Panthers 20 Tigers 12
Would have helped Penrith's chances if game was played at ANZ.

 

[umina panther]

Cartwright to 6 and Sowie to 7 with Wallace being shot out of a cannon into the sun is our only hope

 

[Sime_11]

Tigers could rack up a cricket score if they turn up going on Penrith's form.

potential to be worst game of the year IMO.

 

[Jimmy-o]

Penrith to get the 5 year plan back on track with a 28-16 victory.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Tigers are pretty much full strength minus nofo so absolutely no excuses. Our season is already gone but games like this we need to win if we're going to take anything from 2015. I think we can get ontop of penrith forwards and win by 4.

 

[Rhyno]

Tigers by 4

 

[mxlegend99]

Tigers by 12.

Panthers haven't made any player changes except bringing Josh Mansour into the 17, and James Segeyaro being out of the 17. Just a few players shuffled around for the winger to replace a hooker:

Josh Mansour - Wing
Waqa Blake > Centre
Isaah Yeo > Second Row
Lewis Brown > Bench
Api Korisau > Hooker

At the very least we should have put Bryce Cartwright in the halves with Jamie Soward and tell Peter Wallace his career as a Panther is over. In 60 minutes against the Bulldogs Bryce Cartwright has done more for Panthers then Peter Wallace has all season.

Peter Wallace might be better than John and Korisau in the halves. But Peachey and Cartwright have shown more playmaking ability then him in limited opportunities and either one could thrive if given the #6 for the rest of the season with Soward.

 

[GongPanther]

If we were to be judged on our last performance,I'd say that after that bruising and tough encounter against the Dogs,we will be hardened by that effort.

So I give the Panthers more than a chance in this game given the talent we have,we should have quite a bit of experience to draw from.

Panthers by 12.

 

[ACTPanthers]

Hard to be optimistic given our current form...

Tigers by 12 and Blake to bomb at least one try

 

[Vic Mackey]

Who plays left center for penrith? Whoever it is will have a field day

 

[mxlegend99]

Waqa Blake. Probably good for 3 linebreaks only to lose the ball over the try line.

 

[GongPanther]

Blake will come good...too good of a player in not to.

 

[Vic Mackey]

so the tigers are $1.73 favourites, penrith way overs imo. I know they have key injuries but we're still shit and leichhardt hasnt been the fortress many think it is.

I'm not saying Panthers can't win but did you watch them last week against the Dogs? Played like absolute duds. Their attack was diabolical.

 

[blaza88z]

really hard game to tip, the Tigers are too hit and miss to be confident so from a betting perspective I have to go with the value of the Panthers

 

[blacklock]

Omg so ward with a porno moustache!

 

[MacDougall]

Wow. Great start.

 

[hineyrulz]

Badger you hipster douche.

Badger just wanted more time on TV
