2023 Grand Final Panthers vs Broncos

[Hooked]

I thought we were done. I am glad I was WRONG.

I must say, as much as I know this is a once in a generation team and I should know better, at 24 - 8 I didn't believe in them. The Broncs were rolling and we hadn't fired much of a shot. It felt like the baton was being passed.

I still can't believe they had that in them. In that moment. With all the pressure. The weight of the achievement hanging over them. The end of an era looming. Then they go and do that.

Lots to say about the game, but for now I'm absolutely lost for words and can do nothing but ramble about how stunned I am by the last 2 hours and 4 years. What an unbelievable achievement. So proud of this club I could burst, but instead I might just collapse.

Cogger sneaky MVP.

Came on to the ball at speed and created space.

The game changed once Fish, Leota and Kenny were back on. Those three recommenced the beatings and suddenly Carrigan, Haas and Flegler aren't sighted.

I cant believe I'm saying this, but Leota is a better prop then Leniu. He has a toughness about him that you can't see until the chips are down. Spencer will be missed for sure and again, I cant believe I am saying this, but we have kept the right prop.

Haas is a great athlete. JFH and Leota are Warriors. They can't match his stats, but when it gets tough, they just don't flinch.

Spencer was lazy getting into the line.

Has always been a problem.

Moses just said f**k you I'm not losing tonight

sweetest victory of them all

Once our middles steadied the ship, Cleary produced what Andrew John's described as "the best performance by a halfback in a grand final ever". Hard to argue with that. I think Luai going off made him step up another level.

Dylan with 290m in that heat was also brilliant.

 

[Pomoz]

We'll miss Critta, he was very good tonight. He didn't let Staggs bully him and his deft kicks helped keep the pressure.on. The Dogs have got a beauty there.

His try is one of the great GF scores.

He should never have scored that, beat three players.

I ran up my street in the nude after we won. I was yelling “f**king Three Peat!”

Neighbour yelled out “Don’t you mean Three Inches?”

And I was humbled, just like that.

You should have run holding a picture of Cleary that would have hardened you up another 2 inches

Mission accomplished, I’m changing my avatar back.

The rugby league world is on its f**king knees before you tonight.

Smug has growled!

 

[Luke Bowden]

I am a mess. That was so stressful and amazing!

I was so confident we had drained their energy in the first half despite not having much on the scoreboard but it t all seemed to go to pot as they raced away for those three tries.

Nathan reclaimed the game from the ashes, but credit to Ivan for some very astute subs.

GO THE PENRITH PANTHER

 

[downforasesh]

Wow what a game. I'll always back the team and I knew we were still in it but even I'll admit it was looking so dicey down 24-8 with 20 to go. Nathan absolutely silenced all the critics of his performances in big games wow. I'm only young but I feel like that has to be the best Panthers game of all time

 

[TheEroticGamer]

The greatest moment in rugby league history. The impossible achieved in impossible circumstances.

From Everest, to the moon and now transcendent of everything entirely.

 

[The Silverdale Phantom]

@soc123_au will need to be stretched off the ground tonight!

if there was any doubt, a smidgeon, it’s gone now.

I hope the press treats the celebrations fairly.
