2003 Grand Final Discussion

[melon....]

Well done Panthers, too good on the night for us. It was a great Grand Final, very close with the score not indicating the tension as the game was in the balance with 10 minutes left.

Disappointment for the Roosters fans obviously, but you cant win em all. Enjoy it Panthers, we certainly did and we'll have to smash you next year.

Fantastic culmination to agrear season.

I can't think of a team who deserved it more, well done guys.

 

[Kasper]

woo go panthers! You are the mountain men you had a win today! I have never barracked so hard for another team. I have even changed my avatar to a penrith one. :shock:

Like obviously many other fans I just wanted to say congratulations to all the players, staff and supporters! Well Done and thank God you beat those painfull bloody Roosters....Amen!
We all know that being a supporter can have its highs and lows but the winning of a premiership can make all the low times seem insignificant.
Good onya, and hope you all relish the win!
Sincerely

Excellent win guys, a pleasure to watch. All the best for next year.

Great stuff Penrith, I've doubted y'all all year long, but you proved yourself worthy premiers.

Priddis was a hero, he's foresight to put Rooney away and win the game was true quality. Not to mention the other 2 tries he was involved in and his 40 plus tackles !

I lost $60 in my tipping competition 'cause I thought it would be the Rooters but I cheered for the Panthers all night and thought it was an awesome game

Can't wait for season 2004 so it can Reign Cats vs the Dogs again, can't wait for that contest!!

[Parra_Eels]

yes the tackle will go down as folklore but i wish channel 9 would stop crapping on about his dad. scott now isnt "the son of john sattler" he's scott sattler.

 

[Big Poppa Pump]

Congratulations. You were far better than us tonight.

You are worthy Premiers & I look forward to getting our Trophy back in 2004 ;-)

 

[bartman]

Yeah, you guys were HOT tonight! That was some good footy - a pleasure to be at the game and watch!

Congrats and enjoy the partying at Panthers tonight! (And the sore heads on Tuesday....)

Oh it is indescribable how I felt after the game, it was pure elation and relief.

After 12 years of hoping and wondering if this was our season to turn it around, finally we did!, we won the f**king grand final, this is brilliant, i've never felt like this. All those years, with a team that was performing so much under its potential, and finally we got the grand final. Its brilliant.

i'm sorry, i love this.

That was a cracker of a game. Take nothing away from the roosters, they played really well and through everything at us, but how good was that defence, it would certainly shut Phil Gould up, predicting we'd come wooden spoon, well that was one critic i wanted the boys to prove wrong and we did.

I couldn't be more proud to be a panther fan, this is the greatest day of my life!

Congratulations Panthers. Thanks for producing one hell of a game and being a part of one of the all time great grand finals. I enjoyed every second of it.
