2023 FW1 Sat - Penrith 32-6 Warriors @ BlueBet

[The Man Shake]

Awwwwe that’s a beautiful fing too ease them wah wahs …awwwe I’m trying not to cry

That’s the level of smug I’ve come to expect from Panthers fans. All the other teams are just competing for the Panthers Cup.

Do you honestly think that if it was Broncos v Warriors it would be 4:00pm on Saturday afternoon at Suncorp?
I don’t think so!!

 

[Mr Angry]

The Panthers are rightful favourites for the whole thing.

I do not think they are as good last year, better with Api and Kikau than without, but still the best team MP says so.

But has any other team gotten better?

The Warriors have, so has Brisbane.

The finals are a new comp they say.

 

[THE CHAMP]

If the kick off time is good for the game in nz then do it ffs

 

[Mr. Shaman]

How do the minor premiers get the worst time slot for the weekend?

4pm Saturday is shit.

Waaaaaaaahhh

Not everything is about Penrith ya sook

 

[Pjf04b]

And nothing is about Manly!

 

[Apey]

And nothing is about Manly!

Not the netball!

Yes. As their next game will be the same time.

Hopefully Netball has a bye and you can watch it

They still very much deserve their spot in the top 4 though. It’s not like the teams below them have gone any better against the top 3 sides. Roosters and Sharks have been smashed most times they’ve gone up against the top 3, and while the Knights beat Melbourne and went very close against Penrith and Brisbane, they still haven’t beaten them.

Fair to say they might struggle against the top 3, but they were very close against Penrith and Brisbane and they’ll continue to build experience.

Hell, the fact that the Warriors have gotten into the top 4 just by beating the teams they should is f**king amazing really considering historically you’ve not been able to back them with stolen money against anyone.

I'm not saying they don't deserve to be there, just making a comment on their prospects now it is finals time

It is what it is.

 

[Someguy]

I reckon competitive game for 60 minutes. After that panthers run away with it. Would like to be wrong but it would only be an AFB rampage that could win it for the Warriors

 

[Stinkfinger]

You've alluded to the elephant in the room about the warriors that no one wants to talk about because they (and the knights) are the feel good story of the season.

In addition to their recent form they are 5-6 in games against the top 8 with all wins coming against raiders (2), sharks (2) and knights. They are 0-4 against their top 4 peers and got beat twice by the chooks too.

It's not going to be popular but for me they are the sharks of last season, finishing higher than they otherwise would due to a user friendly draw. Still a top 8 team for sure but not top 4 IMO. I fear for them this week and think the knights are massive chances to roll them next week too.

I'd back them at home.

Excuse me. How dare they not consult with local level Netball players about whether the timeslot works

Local level Netball > A whole country watching a game

Correct. Now you get it

 

[Panther Mike]

I like the Warriors compared to other non Panther teams. I wish them well in future weeks but not this week. We're full strength apart from Luai and we'll show it.

Agreed. If Panthers weren't in it, I would definitely be on the Warriors bandwagon. Be amazing to see them complete the fairytale season.

I don't think we are a snowballs chance in a microwave of getting up, but f**k; if we do somehow cause an upset, the amount of humble pie consumed by the smug will be a thing of beauty.

Nah, if you win it's because Ivan decided we want to go the long way.

That’s a great hedge your bet to look like you aren’t
