Looks like the Penny Panthers supporters’ bus is on it’s way to Brisbane with Vossy at the wheel.

We like to Smuggy

We like to Smuggy
I've got Nathan to tell you
I've got chin for you
Gonna put some refs in motion
Get ready Martin's coming through
Hey now, hey now, hear what I say now
A To'o try is just around the corner
Hey now, hey now, hear what I say now
Yeo is there for you
The Ivan bus is coming
And even Tago's jumping
Melbourne to North Queensland
And also in the grandstand
The wheels of Edwards turning
And Leota's boots are burning
So if you like to Smuggy
Put on a Panthers jersey

 

[Chins]

We own Brisbane and Suncorp Stadium. We won't make the 8 but should win this one

 

[JamesRustle]

If Kevvie has to pollute our ears this weekend, hopefully he is calling this game and Penrith come back to win.

Penrith 26-24.

 

[Sime_11]

Penrith have 50 put on them for the first time in years - and a line put through them for 2025

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

KlienKampf is on - whoever he wants to win, will win

 

[Panther Mike]

If it's going to be more of the same as the past weeks then fortunately, I'll be working Sunday so won't be able to watch the debacle.

Even though you are taking the piss out of us I still think that was funny

 

[Nealo 12]

Penrith have 50 put on them for the first time in years - and a line put through them for 2025

The field surface will be a shit fight by then

 

[Stinkfinger]

OK smartarse when was the last time?

 

[Fangs]

Penrith 13+

 

[Sime_11]

Round 19 2018 season - against Brisbane at Suncorp….

2025 panthers defence is atrocious, it’s a matter of time before 50 is put on them

I like changing the lyrics of songs and it was a great opportunity to shitpost in an endearing way.
I don't hate Penrith. What the club has achieved in the refball era is something no other club has been able to do. It's shown that a development club can achieve sustained success if they do it right.

Maybe so. If Broncos fire they could do it. But they're hot and cold and will be expecting an easy win. They could just as easily get their pants pulled down in front of their gaping fans.

The truth is, as someone said earlier, Klein will decide this.

How could anyone hate that?

 

[JamesRustle]

Broncos have the chance to kill of Penrith's premiership hopes without even putting 50 on them.

Cobbo to again highlight the bad roster descisions made at Red Hill over the past 12 months.

C'mon Broncos, beat these chumps here and I'm putting a line through them making finals.

 

[blaza88z]

and will be expecting an easy win.

Rightfully so too, Penrith are coming last.
