Bounce Back Factor?

Nah

JD has lost them. PENRITH are back to the pack now IMO but should account for souffs easily.

 

[Saxon]

Penrith by so far you couldn't see them on a clear day with a sniper scope.

 

[yobbo84]

I'll be there. I don't know why, but I will.

I hope the pies and chips will be hot, it'll be the highlight of my night

Penrith are back to the pack now?

So where does that place your mob who were outclassed by them a few weeks ago?

What a bizarre comment. Are you a closet PENRITH fan?

Have you not watched their last 3 games?

 

[Pjf04b]

Same as last year!

Bahahaha!!

It was Nathan Cleary’s first game back last week.

Do you think that not having Nathan Cleary has been a BIG out for Penrith.

And they still outclassed your mob.

Yours is the bizarre comment.

lol.

Ahead of where we were this time last year. That turned out ok.

We are cruising along waiting for September

 

[I Bleed Maroon]

Penrith by 18+ or Souffs by 2. There will be no in between.

 

[JamesRustle]

LOL.
Souffs to be fiddied harder than Kent into a tree.

 

[GongPanther]

Michell will be match unfit. Panthers by 36-12, if we are serious 50+-12.

 

[Nealo 12]

Michell will be match unfit. Panthers by 36-12, if we are serious 50+-12.

If you mean Latrell Mitchell he is still a week away from returning

 

[yobbo84]

Penrith by 18+ or Souffs by 2. There will be no in between.

Penrith by 30-49 or Penrith by 50+. There will be no in between.

 

[soc123_au]

Michell will be match unfit. Panthers by 36-12, if we are serious 50+-12.

Latrell hasn't been match fit since 2019. In any case he is still suspended which is worth 12 points less against for Souths.

 

[Vic Mackey]

If you mean Latrell Mitchell he is still a week away from returning

Either way, the first sentence is still true

 

[Chins get the wins]

But but but they win the 2022 GF if he plays........just ask any Souths fan.

Nathan would have shredded the fat slob like every other time we play him.

In our defence, Latrell Mitchell under Wayne Bennett was a different beast to Latrell Mitchell under Jason Demetriou.

One of them (like Trent Robinson) actually had him working hard and playing well. Since then.....

Obviously you mean 2021 but I don't know why PENRITH fans get so upset by this suggestion.

I don't care what happened before or after but in the paradigm of that specific game and the circumstances of the time, that being the injuries to Penrith and a tight game with Penrith on the back foot for most of it, I find it completely reasonable to be of the view Latrell could have come up with a match winning moment.

I get you guys will have faith your team would have still won but I completely understand souths fans lamenting as well.
