Finals Week 2: Sharks vs Panthers

[jane the pain]

Some words of wisdom from Chad Townsend.

 

[PenrithPanther45]

We definitely have the advantage in the halves. Cronulla's outside backs, and Holmes in particular, are quite dangerous. The Sharks are also better at set plays than us but may struggle without Graham. The clear key here is up front. If we smash them up the middle it will definitely make it a lot easier for us to win this one. Cronulla's big men are quite old so I think if we spread it early to Kikau too and use the agility of our pack it may work well.

It was a comment, move on

Anyway in the spirit of moving on let's all just agree that Moylan is a champion player and human being.

Moylan has one of the most punchable faces in the NRL and now that hes not a Panther I'm free to acknowledge that.

 

[Exsilium]

Moylan is a flog.

No not agreeing to that, he is not a champion human being

Agree to that comment though

 

[Black Diamond]

Absolutely he is

 

[panthersam]

I have seen young fans approach Matt, and other players, in High St when he was a Panther. Matt refused to sign their autographs, while the other players did. The other players were Isaiah, and Te Marie. He is arrogant.

Wouldn't mind benching RCG and starting Tamou. Being benched fired him up last year and Tamou's been great latey. He tore up the Sharks' middle last time we faced them.

Would require a bit of a life change for most of us.

That is not very nice.

Indeed. Big change.

Jokes aside in that reddit thread I said Maloney is the better of the two.

Reg's issue is fitness. Putting on quick weight with fast food is no good for this kind of work.

 

[Westernised Panther]

We have to watch out for the inside balls. The Sharks are experts at this.

The boys have to watch for the inside runners, Holmes and Moylan especially.

My wife wouldn't be pleased.

Or was 'up' left at the end of the sentence?

 

[franklin2323]

You're right. I definitely think Cleary nd Maloney are working well together now which is our advantage. Look at last night. On the back foot and their kicking turned the game.

That left side of us is so much better with Maloney too

 

[franklin2323]

The risk with turning the Sharks around is Holmes. The guy is electric. Our strategy of turning the Warriors around was helped massively by RTS being injured (indeed that might have been another reason why we used it). RTS is also dangerous on kick return sets, but not as dangerous as Holmes.

They are better off set starts though and hate end to end stuff. So that really has to be the plan if they are good enough than so be it

Some words of wisdom from Chad Townsend.

There's an element of truth to it. How many plays did he pull out of his ass to win games for Penrith?

Maloney is a better game manager though.

Totally different players
