2024 Panthers

[betcats]

I’ve already unfollowed those traitors, future reserve graders.

 

[Crashtest]

Luke x's 2

The other Luke is only signed for 2024 though. So it’s only Soni Luke signed for 2025.

5 from 5 to start the year

It amuses me the Roosters are considered a heavyweight.

It amuses me the Roosters are considered a heavyweight.

They've been a myth for years.

The expectation is they are just lurking ready to win the competition every year. But they have played the same football 4 seasons straight. They've backed JWH/Radley types when most clubs would have moved on by now. Its a bit odd for the Roosters to keep backing the same horse. Robbo might have the blinkers on.

Even worse, they might feed Leniu whatever they are eating and turn his brain into a marshmallow.

Robbo is going through his Paul Green phase.

Remaining loyal to his premiership winning players rather than succession planning.

In 2027 management may need to have some tough conversations with Ivan in regard to our aging legends.

 

[Luke Bowden]

The other Luke is only signed for 2024 though. So it’s only Soni Luke signed for 2025.

Summo will extend at the very 1st offer. He loves the joint.

“Aging legends” the Peach will be 36 but Nathan will only be 29 which is 5 years younger than DCE is now. Everybody in the 13 except Yeo will be under 30.

Um Yeo, Leota, JFH and Martin will all be over thirty, four years from today.

The pack will need a refresh.

Look forward to Monday when full NRL draw is released. Will be interesting.

Penrith Panthers can confirm the NRL squad for the 2024 season and beyond.

Ativalu Lisati	2024
Brad Schneider	2024	2025
Brian To’o	2024	2025	2026	2027
Daine Laurie	2024
Dylan Edwards	2024	2025	2026	2027	2028
Harrison Hassett	2024	2025
Isaah Yeo	2024	2025	2026	2027
Izack Tago	2024	2025
Jack Cole	2024	2025	2026
James Fisher-Harris	2024	2025	2026
Jarome Luai	2024
Jesse McLean	2024	2025	2026
Liam Henry	2024	2025	2026
Liam Martin	2024	2025	2026	2027
Lindsay Smith	2024	2025	2026
Luke Garner	2024
Matt Eisenhuth	2024
Mavrik Geyer	2024	2025
Mitch Kenny	2024
Moses Leota	2024	2025	2026	2027
Nathan Cleary	2024	2025	2026	2027
Paul Alamoti	2024
Scott Sorensen	2024	2025	2026
Soni Luke	2024	2025
Sunia Turuva	2024
Taylan May	2024
Tyrone Peachey	2024
Zac Hosking	2024
Isaiah Iongi	Dev.	2025
Luke Sommerton	Dev.
Preston Riki	Dev.
Riley Price	Dev.	2025

A couple of players on the list need good seasons in 2024 or their time at the Panthers will likely come to an end. Lisati and Riki are two of the obvious ones. I like Preston Riki , I think he has upside given his height and mobility but his injury record has hampered him big time. Lisati likewise needs to show some next season.

The salary cap seems to be doing all the hard decisions.

IMO Pantherball requires:

Cleary
Edwards
To'o
Yeo
JFH
Leota

All are signed for a while.

The game director, the yardage backs and disciplined middles

Thanks for pointing that out, hopefully we can keep them all into their senior years.

 

[betcats]

Don’t sleep on the roosters, I hate them but it won’t surprise me to see them much better next year. Their forward pack is being refreshed. We know leniu is a talent, Wong I think will have a breakout year. I’m also really big on Whyte, I think he’s very talented.

Don't think they have the spine or pack to worry anyone come September

Question marks on the spine but I think the pack will be good. Collins leniu may Wong radley Chrichton Whyte there’s plenty to work with if they can stay healthy and focused.
