2021 R20 Sun - Melbourne 37-10 Penrith @ Suncorp

[Pantherjim.]

Postponed. All I can say is: Phew!

 

[GongPanther]

So maybe three matches tomorrow and two on Monday, all at Lang Park. (NRL.com.au)

Postponed.

Well it is retro round. Trouble is the theme was 90s and postponing games was big in the 60s and 70s.

 

[THE CHAMP]

Can they hook the sickening Nable promo? The Panthers injuries have destroyed my excitement for this game.

We are going to get pumped harder than a hole in a wall at Kurt's hotel room.

Might even get pumped as hard as what's on the other side of said hole

Penrith fans reading this:

Nah most of us a cool but every fanbase has a fair share of wankers. I think we can keep this kinda tight but we won't have the class at the end. Storm by 12ish

I'm thinking 32-10.
Storm out to a early lead, Bellamy to rest guys when it's in the bank because that Suncorp surface will be looking to end a few blokes seasons.

Out to $7.00 now. So of all ways this game could play out, one in 7 end up with us winning (maybe 1 in 8 allowing for margin). For a coach who has lost 4 from his last 42 starts, Ivan Cleary cops a bit of stick, even from some of our own fans, but its pretty obvious what the one way in 8 that we can beat the Storm is, and that is how I would expect the Panthers to approach this game. Complete at over 90%, play it in the middle third and tackle tackle tackle. If they have a weakness it is the left edge. Test that out when the right to do so has been earned. Last year's GF was lost on our mistakes, nothing else. Don't give them anything to capitalise on. They are expecting an easy win.

Is that because your team (among others) have perpetuated the Storm myth?
Many teams have laid down like bitches for them this season, but only the Broncs have done it twice.

Bud we have been their bitches for more than a decade

No Nathan, Apisai, Brian or Isaah.

I’m cringing at the thought of Robert Jennings under a high ball from Munster with Ado-Carr zeroing in…

we’re gonna get smashed.

Thank f*ck I’m at work, couldn’t bare to watch it unfold…

Melbourne scored 40+ against NZ twice so we have company. If the Tigers, Dragons and Canterbury all had to play them twice, we might have a bit of a party.

Mate that's life.
We have copped injuries to our best and have to play one of the hottest form teams in recent memory.
Looking forward to seeing Tago get some more minutes!

Special shout out to the QLD govt for allowing Panthers an extra day to prepare for an extraordinary gaping from the Storm today.

The Tigers beat a similar strength Panrhers side (& celebrated their Grand Final), so its scary to think what will the Storm do today...

 

[Munted]

Jesus Christ that is a stacked storm team now Grant is in.
Little bit of pee dribbled out.

We’re in for an arse ripping.
I just hope the rest of the boys stay injury free…
