2016 Wk 2 Semi - Raiders 22-12 Panthers @ GIO Stadium

[Munted]

I know there were a lot of really shit teams in the comp this year but I'm struggling to understand how the Panthers made it this far.

You watch last week you merkin?

A couple of injuries and playing a good side away from home and we're back to looking like the team we were mid year. Let's at least have a better second half please.

 

[Hutty1986]

That Raiders right edge is so f**king good

 

[AlwaysGreen]

I'll admit that the Raiders have had more leeway in the ruck but unfortunately the way the game is reffed if you're on top you tend to get that

 

[Shorty]

Refs have been good, nothing wrong with them at all.

They missed that strip and are allowing the Raiders to lay all over the ruck.
But this is why a home final is important.

I hope Cummins dies a painful death

 

[mxlegend99]

Errors killing the Panthers. How hard is it to hold the ball?

 

[Generalzod]

Is whitehead on report

 

[chigurh]

Anyone know if Fox are showing the grand final live?

 

[PenrithPanther45]

Plain and simple. Errors are losing us this one. No chance if we don't improve.

 

[Vic Mackey]

Refs have been garbage but we have not been anywhere near good enough.

That's what I think too. The first try was a real bad call but I thought the knock on call for the second try was fair enough. Penrith their own worst enemy. As we know they only have to turn it on for 10 mins and they could score 18 points.

 

[East Coast Tiger]

Raiders have dominated up front. That's the difference. And maybe Hosgson.

But they led 12-nil last week, admittedly not at halftime.

 

[Silent Knight]

Lol Moylan blowing up at his wingers cause he had to bring the ball back himself

Can't allow for any grass stains on his jersey. What would Mum say?

 

[umina panther]

Gus should have been in the media bagging Cummins all week. We all knew this would happen

 

[user_nat]

Anyone know if Fox are showing the grand final live?

No, Nine exclusive.

 

[Jason Maher]

Anyone know if Fox are showing the grand final live?

No. 9 have exclusive rights to Origin and the Grand Final.

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Anyone know if Fox are showing the grand final live?

No their not. SoO and GF live and exclusive on niiiiinnnnneeeee

 

[chigurh]

No, Nine exclusive.

Aha, thought so. Damn.

 

[Leber]

Rapana will enjoy his kiwi jersey.

 

[ZEROMISSTACKLES]

They are a good team but they're clearly rattled and nervous.
Young team also.

Yep they have yet to really shake of those nerves which is now leaning towards frusteration among some of the players like Moylan. 12 nil will do that to you but its not the mindset a lead player like Moylan needs to be in. He needs to step up. Cleary is going cool calm and collective. Panthers just unlucky with the calls but should realise that and that it doesnt continue
