2021 Grand Final: Panthers V Souths

[Panther Pete]

Kent on 360 finally stomped on the souths love in from Vonny and the others. I actually gave him a little cheer. It was in the first 10 minutes or so, it's worth a watch for those that missed it. It was funny how the sentiment from the others went 180 degrees after that.

Yeah Kent did say good things about us. I did however start swearing at the TV when knucklehead Spud Carroll and Toovey tried to say the refs helped us.

 

[DinkyDi]

Needs another premiership to be the greatest ever.

With the team we have now, and considering that most are locked in long term, that will happen.

 

[MrBlack]

Anti Vax players will get the jab. No doubt.

2 choices

1. a jab and $10,000 a week, or

2. get a job.

Wankers. South’s had plenty of chances to put us away. They couldn’t convert them.

My guess is the hardest thing about going back to back would be the hunger issue, you lose a little bit of competitive edge because you’ve already won a title. One little advantage we have to counter that is the return to Sydney aspect, hopefully the players will be really fired up in front of large home crowds in 2022.

At the end he answered a question from a panther fan reminding him he said put a line through them.he admitted he got it wrong and full credit to penrith

Meaning?

ahaha just modern day slang, dub means win, an abbreviation sorta thing for the letter 'W'

 

[Iamback]

I do wonder if it was a conscious decision to tone down our attack due to the injuries. Or potentially to give us more energy and aggression in defensive line.

I was told it was the 1st. Basically the spine had no game time together across the year.

The injections on Cleary's shoulder had no impact. Throw in Edwards breaking his foot in Round 24 and hasn't trained since.

That is when Crichton came onto the wing to help in defence

its also our last season before panthers stadium gets knocked down for a rebuild

 

[Iamback]

First of all congratulations. I'm also glad Spencer played and won.
Great defense thru the whole finals and did it the hard way. I dare say beating the best 3 other side come finals.
Unsure what happened to your great attack however. But that's a tale for next year.
2003 and 91 where better grand finals imo.
But Savour the moment.

Edwards not training. Cleary only has 20% of his ligaments attached on his shoulder. So very limited.
To'o was a season ending injury

3 key guys on very limited training affects attack

Unless it’s a lego model can not see a new stadium for at least 20 years

That 'Fan' was actually a post done by Kikau to Kent hahaha...

Mirrors my thoughts exactly. Was a little worried by the after game interview when Yeo said we have climbed the games ‘Everest’. That is usually something a person would do once to tick it off the bucket list.

Hopefully they will be determined to win one ‘at home’ for the fans.

No one has ever won multiple premierships for the club.
Cleary and Yeo are yet to play for Aust etc. still got things to cross off

I see 4 cans from last year on Gumtree asking $50. They'll probably do it again.

Only two people took the field in both the 1991 and 2003 GF's. Brad Fittler, for us in '91 and the Roosters in '03, and Bill Harrigan, the ref both times.

I think because of Edwards and To'o's injuries it seemed sensible.

In 2020 G/F we were not used to and unable to grind out a win. The game plan was built to beat the storm. It also worked on other teams too.

Very smart game plan. Best of all, it worked.
