2016 R19 - Panthers 22-18 Eels @ Pepper Stadium

[Sphagnum]

Parra are struggling to find a spine that will score any points. That's why Penrith are shorties.

Are the mountain men contenders or pretenders? Last chance Eels look for respite from media barrage.

The local derby of the west is sure to send sparks flying as these two rivals lock horns on Sunday out at Penrith.
Penrith are last start losers after a very discouraging 26-10 defeat at home against the red hot Cronulla Sharks. This young Panthers side on paper looks as one of the most talented in the NRL yet cannot find any consistency this season.

possibly halves of kenny edwards and jeff robson to run out so i read.

Geez, just keeps getting worse (and i do rate edwards as a great forward before anyone says something)

 

[Buzzard Breath]

Norman runs the show.

Panthers should win comfortably provided they run straight and offload like they have been doing so well prior to last week.

Knowing us if we win it will be ugly and by a couple of points.

I reckon this was written before Norman was stood down. Still, I can understand why someone would be tipping Parra, even with so many important players out. The Panthers have been kinda brittle in defence in recent weeks.

This is Groundhog day for the Panthers, once again. I suppose it is for the Eels too but really their chances of making the finals are already wafer thin and its for the best that they don't.

Our biggest loss of the year will be followed by our biggest win of the year.

 

[ed-grimley]

This could be the week all the shit causes Parra to finally crack.
If Penrith can't win they should start planning their end of year trip.

Parra strike first in the 20's lead 6-0 18 mins gone.
