[I Bleed Maroon]

Penrith by 18+

 

[soc123_au]

Cripple fight

 

[Apey]

Two very average football teams here but I think the Panthers get this done something like 28 - 22.

 

[Trifili13]

Tamou Cup

 

[This Year?]

This is going to be fun for all the wrong reasons.

 

[chrisD]

Mama said knock you out.

 

[Fangs]

Penrith by 14.

 

[JamesRustle]

Penrith's season starts here. 42-6.

 

[Saxon]

Panthers not going great, but this year's Cowboys are a very average side. Smug to win by 16.
