2020 R18 Fri - Panthers 20-2 Eels @ Panthers

[franklin2323]

I think there's a combination of factors that have people hating panthers this year.
Ivan has kind of exposed himself as a bit of a dick over the last few years.
They have some real merkins in their team like Luai. I don't think there's a player I hate more than him right now.
Then there's the Phil Gould factor, who is the grand wizard of smug... nuff said.

If you're hated by lots of people in RL then you must be doing something right...

Sounds like Storm and Roosters there...

We aren't at that level yet to get such hate... but thanks for the high praise

Who does the attack coaching? BA seems very much like Hook in he can prepare a side. They try but lack the polish

Murphy, been the attack coach since 2014. He won a spoon with the Titans. And it shows our attack has been shit on the whole since he has been here.

Yeah you're right (last sentence).
Ivan and Gus are polarising, yes and rightfully so I'll just piss people off and make it easy to hate Penrith.
I think people should look at the positives, a team of mostly jnrs from the area are having a crack and succeeding. It's good for the game surely.

Shows how important good assistants are the current game

Seriously how funny is that final score.
20........2 haha. Why the f**k did Parra opt for 2 in the first half????

Well, it was nil all at the time to be fair

Hopefully it can motivate others to develop some talent instead of leaving it to the same 5 or 6 clubs

Meh, why would you take 2 against Penrith of all sides?

Because 2 is better than 0???

Forget about it, your obviously too daft to understand what I mean.

It was a joke you dopey merkin, of course I got what you meant. Daft lol, talk about irony.

 

[Bazal]

So, the excuses for Parra are:

1. No forwards
2. No spine
3. Injured half

Any others?

Andrew Johns to give Moses more coaching?

You're a Newcastle fan, I believe?

How's that hookers curse excuse working for you in 2020?

Going by last nights performance, we really do have quite a bit of work to do if we are to seriously challenge the Roosters. Melbourne I'm not concerned about.

The attack needs some work. The Roosters put scores on lesser sides but against an efficient defence they will be troubled. Parra did defend well but they also held down the tackled player all night, which stifled our attack.

 

[sensesmaybenumbed]

Because Mitchell Moses....

Those people can move to Haiti.

One things for sure, pennies better get a loss out of the way before it counts

They could rest most of their starting line-up vs. Canterbury in the final round, keep their key players safe for the finals and get a loss out of the way to re-sharpen their focus and I don't think anybody would be too disappointed- even Penrith fans...

Because that's what the Sharks did in 2016 right? Only they lost 3 in a row.

I think anyone would wear 3 losses in a row in exchange for a grand final win

And then they won a GF, what a Zinger!!

*Without cheating the cap or taking any peptides whatsoever despite doing both of those thing either side of their premiership season*
