2021 PF 1 Sat - Melbourne 6-10 Penrith @ Suncorp

[GongPanther]

Cracking Panthers defence here and they certainly deserve their lead.
The lack of the professionalism here by commentary is really disappointing though.

The sensationalist shouting bullshit irks me no end.

Apart from some crap refereeing, how good has this been? Both teams absolutely exhausted in those last 10 minutes. How good is daytime footy! In the regular season we hardly ever see two top teams play during the day because the idiotic scheduling rules mean the top matchups each weekend almost always go to the nighttime slots.

Rugby league at its best is played with the sun still out.

2nd half will test these teams fitness, expect some real slowing down....

 

[mxlegend99]

Your attack has completely gone off the rails the past month but luckily your defence is second-to-none. Unbelievable scramble.

Looks like we exhaust ourselves defending and have nothing left to throw in attack. Souths have to be loving this. Both teams throwing everything they have.

 

[Bazal]

Its not shit quality at all. It’s a high pressure game with by far the 2 best defensive sides in the comp.

No see it'd be an excellent defensive game if they were doing this with normal ruck speed.

The ruck is slower than Wayne Bennett's resting heart rate

 

[Apey]

Penrith's scramble is great. Storm look like the Knights atm with how bad they're f**king up their backline plays.

 

[Someguy]

Yeah it was enjoyable, but Sutton has completely lost control. The ruck is an absolute disaster.

Melbourne is well into the minuses in metres post held being called. Ironically enough refs are usually quick to call back anyone that walks forward off the mark

 

[baselinepanther]

high end entertainment
as good as last week

which was very very good

 

[Maximus]

Play the victim some more

I'm not a Panthers fan, so how exactly would I be a victim?

Just not a supporter of the biggest cheats in sport.

 

[Loose Cannon]

I'm f**king exhausted after watching that half. Our defence has been amazing, attack not so much.

Would be fine if one D Edwards would piss off out of the way.

 

[Jason Maher]

What a surprise to see Munster being untouchable.

 

[moffla]

Penrith's scramble is great. Storm look like the Knights atm with how bad they're f**king up their backline plays.
Yeah it isn’t great, but it’s just massive errors on the crucial moments. Clean that up and we win

 

[Apey]

Also Munster is shit tonight and they need Hynes out there.

 

[Reflector]

Souths should be fancying their chances next week, whoever wins out of this. Storm have looked drained and Panthers have squandered at least a few prime chances to increase their lead when close to the line.

 

[gerg]

Burton I believe. Looked more dead than my 1st root.

Just replayed it... looks like maybe JFH

 

[Jason Maher]

I'd pay good money to hear Bellamy's half time blast.

 

[84 Baby]

My favourite part of that half and this season is how Munster gets to play by his own set of rules.

Only he can hit a bloke high and not get penalised for it. Falling or not. That's always a penalty. Especially with a stop in play to see it and rule live.

Smugfer fans complaining about refereeing after last week is my dinner for tonight. Too much salt for my arteries but so delicious

 

[JohnnyThailand]

Seems like the refs showing bias for 1 team not even on the field. South's. Both these teams are rooted, getting smashed, wrestled and knocked around to oblivion.

 

[stryker]

Car Seat Cover Head for Penrith! Over rated or just misunderstood?

Useless, lazy big turd

 

[shear_joy9]

I wonder what dirt gennings has on Bellamy to keep getting picked all season.

 

[t-ba]

This reffing is just turning this into the RL equivalent of 11 Marco Materazzis playing 11 Marco Materazzis
