2019 R18 Fri - Panthers 40-18 Dragons @ Panthers

[Hutty1986]

Easy round to pick eight. All the home teams exc sharks and storm.

No offence to Nichols. He was the perpetual bridesmaid and by all reports he’s a good bloke.

Hunt is reported as being “rested”. But Mary has form here. Remember when Mary “rested” Benji?

"Mary" must be resting Hunt for prepare him for our epic finals run. Hunt is a good bloke too. Just ask Broncos fans.
We are going to get destroyed by Freddie Mercury or Julia of whatever they call him, with a sprinkle of their own version of Ben Creagh. Is "the sauce" playing on the same side of the field as ravioli? That could be a fun match up to watch.

I tipped the Tits. I think they are a great chance against a Storm side which will be hungover after #cam400. Big Mal will get the boys pumped up by asking what has the NRL done for them.

 

[Mr Angry]

I feel for Jarome Luai, he and Maloney have been better than Ramjet and BBQ. IMHO.

Needs to cut them sideburns.

But Penrith have belief, Saints besides Mary do not and it shows.

Welcome back Ed Sheeran. I have missed the shape of you *hugs*

“They’re going to be calling him boscaiola. Because he’s gonna get creamed”.

Brain:
“Goddamnit”.

Anyone who likes a bet, get on Maloney and/or Kikau for anytime try scorer. Nicholls and Aitmerkin defending together on their line will be a comedy act that rivals the umbilical brothers.

Should be an interesting game. You would expect the Dragons to bounce back at some stage. Lots of talk about the panthers winning streak being soft.

Lots of short memories too. They must have done something right to win 6 in a row after being so terrible before that. Anyone who had watched them play in the first 10 rounds could’ve sworn they’d be getting the spoon or 2nd last for sure, regardless of their draw, because they didn’t look interested. They went from conceding 24 points a game in the first 10 games to conceding just under 12 p/g in the last 6. You can’t just put that down to a ‘soft draw’. On form, their season should’ve been killed off in those back to back games against Roosters and Souffs. It’s not Penrith’s fault that both had not only Origin but also several injury problems at the same time. I’d say an improved team attitude and some promising rookies have more to do with the wins than a soft draw. I honestly am shocked they have 8 wins already because I thought we’d be lucky to get 5-6 all year at one stage. Just being in contention is an achievement after the way the year started.

 

[Grapple]

I love the idea of resting your "star" halfback after you got smashed the week before. Let's add a little more instability into the team for the back end of the season, that should do it...

 

[Miller was a legend]

Hunt out?

Game day. Can’t contain my excitement. Panthers fans, get ready for the beating of your lifetime*







*beating to be administered at the Panthers leagues club by security when you’re celebrating your record breaking win over the Dragons.

 

[Smack]

This is the game we turn it all around. Not only will we win by 20, but we will also start playing some electrifying attacking footy.

 

[2 weeks]

Mary may be a dud coach, but he has the proven ability to motivate his side to produce an exceptional performance when least expected and most needed. Round 1, 2017 should not be forgotten, nor last year's semi-final match against the Broncos, who had been flogging all and sundry. We must be ready for an ambush.

 

[TheFrog]

I feel for Jarome Luai

Tried him at 1, no good. Tried him at 9, no good. So he's a 6 and that's it, in a side with 2 Origin halves. So he's going to have to wait his turn. I suspect he's on the bench to keep him interested.

He was injured playing 1 and has had limited time playing in the 9 off the bench. Probably not a fair assessment here. More time would be needed to determine his ability there.

NSW Cup would be the place for that.

Agreed. I think he's with first grade to learn off Jimmy.

I assume the post match pingas from Norman will make up got the shit show that the Dragons will put on tonight.

Shame the supporters will need mind altering drugs during the game.
