2024 R9 Thu - South Sydney 12-42 Penrith @ Accor

[Artiste]

7 unanswered tries after 12-nil up.

LOL @ Souths

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

horrible effort by souths

 

[Artiste]

The coach wasn’t the problem

Just part of 98 others

 

[Ruby Roundhouse]

Is it weird to say I think they've actually played better?

Yes, very. Walker, Murray and Cook all looked washed.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Souths are terrible - but were injury ravaged in-game in positions you don’t carry benchies for. Also against Gee and Orc.

Penrith stink.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Is it weird to say I think they've actually played better?

Not at all. Only 42 against this week.

 

[t-ba]

So unfit. Are they training with Joshy Schuster?

 

[Sans Souci Saint]

Did Simple Jack say he wanted to play at Souffs for a chance at a premiership?

LOL @ Simple Jack.

LOL @ Souffs.

 

[Diesel]

Different coach, same result. Cook to FB was interesting

 

[JamesRustle]

Disagree and this ongoing game is further proving my point.

So far this season they are scoring 6 points less on average and conceding 4 more which is a 10 point average turnaround game to game compared to 2023. They are also finding themselves in battles most weeks which has not been the case the last 3 seasons which will naturally result in a few more losses.

LOL @ Simple Jack.

LOL @ Souffs.

It's simple jack for a reason. 200k a year haircut to hang around Mitchell? Lol

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Taking a fullback out of the game early with a hip drop, won’t be the last time either.

Case for larger benches, but still only use 4 of them. So more positions can be covered.

Got a tip from Freddy

200k?! Wowzers.

He probably wanted to get away from Sticky and experience some hurtin’ in some different sheds.

Souths 2024 season should be used as a defence by the dogs in their case against training punishments.

that May try is what happens when players dont get pushed at training

We were 4 wins and 4 losses from the first 8 games last season, even with Cleary not missing any games. We lost to the bloody Wests Tigers 12-8 lol.

This year we are 6 wins and 2 losses from the first 8 games with Cleary missing 4 games already. We certainly aren't playing to our potential, but we haven't been fit and firing by any measure. Several players have been playing with niggling injuries.

I'm not saying we are just going to stroll to another comp or anything or that we should even be favorites to do so but we're putting ourselves in the picture and that's all a team can really do at this stage of the year. Being in top form only really matters at the back end.

I think the Broncos and Storm are probably the most impressive teams right now and would be happy for them to be the competition favourites.

He wanted to lose and laugh about it with his boys rather than be hurtin' in the sheds

Honest question for those who know the rules better. Gray copped an injury from a sin binned offence, so why couldn't we bring in our 18th man? Is it because he played on? Do you have to go off immediately for that to take effect?
