2- Lillyman
1- CNK

Dishonourable mentions- RTS, Hoffman, Thompson

3. Fus
2. CNK
1. Gavet - yes it was a Watmough play of the ball but he was still putting in the effort

Absolutely filthy about RTS, Bodene and Hoffman, all three were shameful out there.
Honestly, if all three of them pulled their heads in we would have won comfortably.
There was nothing Johnson or Foran could do about the huge wave Penrith were allowed to ride.

We always knew Bodene was a lazy selfish prick, nothing new.
RTS was a deer in the headlights, very worrying given he's our skipper and a senior player
Hoffman is clearly already thinking about next year, threw in the towel straight after the comeback

Agree, with all above
Matulino offered little, Sao is ineffective, Lisone av 6.1m per run.

I'd say with Mannering we would have tied the ball up and slowed tackles down a lot more. Slowing Panthers roll they got on.

1. Gavet (PTB error aside is still dominant in most rucks - couple of nice bumps offs!)

Hon: Lillyman.

3 Fus - because... yeah
2 CNK - double, got involved a lot in defence
1 Gavet? Nobody else stepped up, so he'll do - I couldn't believe SK didn't send him on 5-10 mins earlier as we obviously needed him.. that was very poor

3. Fus - always looked dangerous and, with all this talk we do about how big Ken and Manu are, Fus (when he plays on the wing) is a big winger.

2. Bull - tough, honest toil. A tanker amongst plenty of flotsam.

1. Charnze - he's got heart, and steady talent. Seems mature for his years, is it because he went to the Storm as a boy?

Well, if we'd won, or even lost under normal, acceptable circumstances then I'd planned to rock on to Panthers Leagues for a post-game session.

As it panned out I'm half-cut at home with supermarket frozen pizza and a king size Whittakers.

That's how bad that second-half experience was. I think I'd speak for most Warriors fans at the game in saying that anger, embarassment and shock were the main emotions. There was also a resigned feeling of 'bloody typical, eh?'

At half-time I did the math with someone. The Panthers needed to score four converted tries, and we had to remain scoreless, for them to win. We both agreed that scenario was highly unlikely, particularly considering how well we'd been playing, and how 'headless' and demoralised the opposition were.

I came home on the train raging at Johnson. Thinking to myself that I actually never wanted to see him in a Warriors jumper again. I'm glad, upon logging on here, that I was just taking my anger out on my usual target. It was misdirected anger.

What sparked it though was, all four Panthers tries, in the madness of that second-half, began with Johnson (?) kicking straight to Moylan, and the momentum began from there.

Bad enough back in NZ - you must've gone through some roller-coaster ride in the second half! Ahh... SJ's an enigma - can't argue with you there brother!
