2025 R4 Thu - South Sydney 28-18 Penrith @ Accor

[yobbo84]

That 2nd half was Klowned

I could feel a shit 2nd half coming on from us though, I said as much at half time

Still, 3 and 1 start given a REAL injury toll is f**king great

I can’t really get a feel for Souths. They look good but have only beaten shit teams so far.

 

[This Year?]

If you had Souths 13+ you'd want to give Mamouzelos the ol' Finch finger.

 

[Rod]

Souths 13+ making the big bucks

Oof.

 

[10$ Ferret]

IF they give that no try to the riff its a very different 2nd half.
Mind you if the riff were not effing useless then they would not have to come back.

What is interesting I think that the riff were not up to standard in the previous 3 games due to the other teams putting pressure on them and taking charge.
In this game it was a case of souffs taking advantage of the riff being terrible all by themselves

Only conceded 28, so that’s something I guess.

Matty Johns reckons the Riff's Melbourne game last week "took a fair bit out of them".

Souths have had 2 Saturday games in a row in the heat and a 5 day turnaround before this game so, maybe that had more to do with the 2nd half than the Melbourne game did with the 1st.

Just saying.

Panties threw everything they had at Melbourne last week and almost got there. Came into tonight thinking it would be a walk in the park.

And it was. Unfortunately for them, it was Central Park after midnight and they got mugged!

 

[Maximus]

First time to warm it up for Penrith??

When was the last time Penrith conceded 30 in a half?

Warm it up!!

Mods, can we perma ban these merkins.

No Latrell all season
No Murray all season
No Aitken all season
No Shaq all season
AJ 40 mins only
Munro 40 mins only
Wighton missed a game
Graham missed a game
Hubner missed 2 games

Arrow, Tatola, Graham, AJ all coming back from 8 month+ injuries

Not even mentioning the 5-6 other missing squad players

3-1 is a f**king fantastic start to the year

 

[Mr. Shaman]

Brings the average conceded down from 30 to 29.5.

Jai Arrow in tears from the memory of him f**king his chances with Taylah Cannon

Of all the dumb things footy players have done over the last 117 years him cheating on her is on the podium.

How many inexplicable 6-agains were there?

It's choc full of awesomeness. Nobody really gets the Wayne experience (Knights fans excepted) unless you're a fan of a team he's coached. Nobody gave them a chance and they just do it their own way. It beats being bottom 4 scrapping to get away from the spoon.

Was that Brisbane slugger worth it, Jai?

 

[Grapple]

Oof.

Go to bed, Rod.

 

[Panther Mike]

As much as I hate the salary cap right now (no compensation for developing juniors) I was expecting to have much better depth and ability to cope with injury than this.
Souths had no Mitchell, Murray or Graham so injuries no excuse really for Penrith, making me hate footy suddenly again... Poor attitude of a few of the senior players is letting the team down and the likes of Laurie, Tago, Toelau, Cole and Schneider simply aren't good enough.
The premiership run may end which is fine because such a run can't last but you don't expect a 4-time premiership team to be suddenly looking like a bottom 8 or bottom 4 team. That could well happen if injuries continue to be unkind and we continue to defend so poorly. Keep playing this way and we finish 10th or worse.

Our line up:

Worlds smallest fullback
Old winger noone wanted
Simple Jack
A skinny five-eighth
Isaiah "negative post contact" Tass
A grandpa 6
A lock sized rookie half who spent the whole offseason training hooker
Sean Keppie
A noname hooker
A bloke coming back from 12 months out

Need I go on

JD coaches that lineup we lose every week by 20+

Matty Johns also thought Tom Jenkins first season at this Knights was great and the 2nd season was a tough one.

He was in Newcastle for 1 season and f**king sucked.
