Ivan straight on the phone to Brian Smith.

Well done to the Storm. Been the benchmark all season.

I said on another forum that Penrith needed that semi-final loss to the Rabbitohs.

If we defend like that, we can win the GF.

Souths will throw a lot more at us that today but I am confident we will put on a good show.

Shame Cleary will be suspended for the Grand Final. But he should have thought about that before such a grubby action

Should be a good GF even with cleary ruled out.

 

[Daddycool]

Storm dropped so much ball. Sure they lost a couple of players but they were coming off a weeks rest as well. They choked, plain and simple

 

[AlwaysGreen]

Well done panthers and congratulations.

 

[pims]

the smug doing a lot better since Cleary shaved his disgusting mouustache

Dylan Edward hairline seems to be receding?

Imagine being bald with a chin like that....he'll look like an upside down egg.

Mate we defended the f**k out of the storm and forced them into playing shit house. Give credit.

No.

 

[Alan Johnson]

Great game. Biggest disappointment was NAS's superman try not being legal.

Can’t even grow facial hair to cover up the lack of chin.

Obviously delighted with the win and the effort the boys put in today.

A few words to the Storm; a great team that deservedly won last year and were elite all year. Unlucky to lose a few players early in this one, but what a wonderful effort.

Watch Graham Annesly explain why there was nothing in the tackle on Mondee mornin’

 

[Bazal]

To'o looks like he's just killed a massive bong and now he's watching a dragonfly or something

Finucane was always going to impede someone running that line.

Shades of Thurston 07.

 

[shear_joy9]

questions need to be asked about cleary and luai's head knocks.
If they weren't spine players you can bet your house they would have been ruled out

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Watch Graham Annesly explain why there was nothing in the tackle on Mondee mornin’

I’m also looking forward to him doing the same with Luai’s head knock…

 

[GongPanther]

Penriths defence beat Parra and now Melbourne, when both had a dozen opportunities to pinch the win.
Very impressive but do they have the energy to do it again next week?

Well, we did this week. Ppl in the media were saying we were done physically and mentally. Today showed we are more than fair dinkum.

 

[Knight76]

What a great game.

Thats all that needs to be said about it.

Or does it have the stench of 2004, where the second placed team lost in week 1 and went on to win the comp?

Cowboys lost week one and went on to win it.
