2025 R2 Fri - Penrith 32-38 Sydney @ CommBank

[Mr. Shaman]

No team that played today makes the 8.

 

[horrie hastings]

Fun finish. Would have been funny if we got there, if it went to golden bald it would have been a robbery. I can only assume our game plan was to stand around under the goal posts for a while. Not sure how else you explain that shit show.

I still wasnt confindent with 12 mins to go, the Grand Final against Brisbane was in the back of my mind.
So early in the season but you guys will be there again at the end.

Jet lag?

Maybe. Didn't seem to affect the Warriors though. Looks like running the CVT instead of the Tremec was a bad idea.

I think more a case of thinking they could just phone it in. Roosters no names exceeded even the most optimistic Chooks fans expectations, so credit where it's due.

If only Penrith had a gun 5/8 who knew how to ice a game.

Tigers could do with one too....How many did we lose by last week?

Biggest phone it in performance since the England Socceroos friendly in 2003.

That was a glorious day

Sprinkle on Turbo"s hamstring and you'd have award winning BBQ.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Small sample size, but Penrith are averaging 22 points per game conceded more than 2024. And they’ve played two crappy teams.

I was confident until your last try. Then was confident again when Cleary took the kick at 14 down. As fun as it would have been to have come back and won it wouldn't have been a victory I was happy about.

2 big streaks broken too, 10 straight and To'o's winning record when scoring a try.

Fair enough, the roosters were slow off their line early and I thought the writing was on the wall.

But they scrambled and stayed in it.

Impressive for a side under construction.

Those juicy ridiculous odds were too good to resist!

First the Warriors take out our bogey team against most expectations, then one of my ridiculous multis actually comes through for once

And tomorrow I get to see mah boys Shihad off in their farewell tour at Homegrown in Welly, just a brilliant start to the weekend!

 

[Panther Mike]

'Penthetic' tonight! Yeah we won 4 premierships in a row but that means nothing for this season. We lost a game to the Roosters FFS who were supposed to be our bunnies whether or not they had an injury crisis and whether or not they were tipped to miss the 8. Unacceptable and has already put a stain on 2025 for me. I don't think a team who leaks 38 to this mob is a title contender so I'll probably have to be content with the 4 in a row.

By the Panthers usual standards it was Morse Code!

 

[Munky]

The only thing the commentators talked about more than Roosters missing players is Edwards' groin.

Can only assume Dyl added a Prince Abert with each ring.

Four would cause any bloke groin issues.

Pissing must be a nightmare.

 

[Belza1]

Panel on Fox are saying Edwards may have picked up a groin injury in the second half.

He'll be right for Thursday against Storm.

We are not worthy!

I wasnt confident till the full time siren went. My heart was in my mouth when Cleary put through the penalty go to make it 32-38 and just thought he we go agsin.

 

[simmo1]

Tigers could do with one too....How many did we lose by last week?

Even if we had Joey and Wally in the halves, we would find another way to lose.

 

[butchmcdick]

Which one of you panthers fans just gave PVL the sloppiest blowie of your life to get that phone call made?

Hey big fella

hope you’re doing well

 

[Valheru]

That was a Ferrari going against a Datsun 510 with a dodgy gearbox

I'm completely unsurprised
