2021 Rnd 24 V Wests Tigers

[Vicpanther]

I think the boys were just trying a few things to see if anything works. In the second half we will just come out and ply the way we normally play.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

We have run into a gale in the first and still winning the field position battle. We will skip away in the second half; with a good kicking game this will be 40+.

 

[The Realist]

Our execution is definately off but Tigers have been highly committed in defence and putting in effort they normally don't. Arguably stopped Burton x 2 and one or two to To'o as well

 

[Munky]

Did well against the breeze.

Both Edwards and Luai are killing our edge attack. Would love to know what they do at training because it's horrible to watch.

 

[Smug Panther]

I'd give up 2 Luai's to keep Burton

 

[GongPanther]

More pressing matters next week. For/against is not an issue, so if we win this, and the Sharks beat the Storm in the Fri 6 pm game, then we get the MP with a win V Eels. This is why the Panthers are going a bit easy. Should run away with it in the 2nd half.

I would rather finish 2nd and play Souths than finish 1st and play Manly

The advantage of finishing first is not wearing this abortion of a jersey in the GF

I disagree. I don't think we tried much at all. We were flat and predictable. Looked like we were passing it through molasses

 

[The_Frog]

These slow starts are becoming a habit. The last 10 minutes looked better.

 

[Girds89]

They were trying to score off every single play and showed no respect to the tigers defence.
Nath and luai have the most set repeats in the league. They need to go back to that. Break them down through constant pressure and fatigue. A little more patience is needed.

The wind probably played havoc with positioning.

Second half will be interesting.

 

[Thirsty Panther]

Loving the tactic to kick at the posts.

It's like the Michell scenario, whether they are there or not, I'm very confident of beating them. The $100k wouldn't hurt.

I’d rather play Manly when we have a second chance if we lose. If we are going to win the comp we likely need to beat the Eagles, Storm and Bunnies. Rather face the Eagles in the first week than the Bunnies.

The wind at this ground is different to the normal NRL ground .normally it’s end to end or a slight cross breeze due to the high grandstands .here it is strong across

 

[DinkyDi]

Nathan is having a rare shocker of a game.

 

[Fangs]

Not too worried about it but disappointed he hasn't already adjusted his kicking.

 

[Smug Panther]

Thats better Jerome!!! First time his taken the line one since origin

 

[The Realist]

That is better from Luai.
