2020 R4 Fri - Panthers 26-0 Warriors @ Campbelltown

Billy Boo-urns is in.

 

[Tommy Smith]

What are Penrith fans thoughts on Caleb Aekins? He seems very vanilla. A fullback 20 years behind the times.

 

[Meth]

I've whinged a lot about Checchin tonight and he has been awful and reffed one way.

Nevertheless, Penrith deserve this win and by this margin. And we deserve this loss and by this margin.

 

[Warriors Fever]

Something that I don’t get is on the 20 restart with the zero tackle mansour blatantly holds down and Chechen gives us the set restart but we don’t actually get any benefit from it. Meaning mansour gets away with holding down a half break.
Surely in that scenario a ref should let us put it into touch or sinnbin the player for a blatant professional foul

Reminds me of Rod Maybon.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

He won the Dally M after his ACL and if the Warriors actually won a game was well on pace to challenge for it the following year.

The problem is that once SJ and Luke left there was only one point of attack that 13 defenders could focus on and RTS is it.

The Warriors are a boring uninspiring team coached by a worthless potato. No one player can overcome that.

I am in the minority who believe his performances that year were a little overstated. He was good but lacked the freakish abilities of his Roosters years. Also, there's no other player in that Warriors side to really compete for Dally M points.

He lost his spark after the ACL like most players do. It was noticeable imo.

Safe. But keeping the spot warm for Edwards. Would actually love to see Crichton have a shot at 1.

Usually safe as a bank..but other than that, a back up at best.

just teach him the sweeping block play and he is every other fullback in the comp

The coach would have Edwards there. Most would have Crichton. I’d have Burton. No1 wants Aekins.

putting it into touch means the team gets to reset and can give them a breather. when teams get into the season and start rolling off the restart with set plays it'll be more advantageous.

Sheez I’m grateful my team didn’t get Checcin last week, we would’ve been under the pump even more.

His debut was awesome. Don't know what happened to him.

Penrith's version of Darius Boyd

Bahahahahahahaha!!! The Sauce.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Penrith have knocked on 2 or 3 times in a few minutes and Cecchin plays on. Horrible officiating.

It looks extremely dodgy when there's only 1 ref and a team cops it dry like this

Yup. Looking at the metres table we missed Maumalo. Some of the selections are baffling. Im stoked they haven't stopped trying, but outclassed across the park

That's why I ask what happened to the plethora of talented young outside backs they had a while back. There's some very bog standard players out there.
