Finals.

It happened a few years ago when Souths v Roosters was at SFS instead of ANZ. I guess they see it as a reward and as long as they set minimum guidelines all good.

ANZ is a better surface and Parra are terrible there is an added bonus


Yeah but Allianz was 45k seats at least, 15k at parramatta is tiny.

Locking out 25k fans would’ve been a really bad look.

Yep I think this is 100% about getting ready for the grand final. We are not great at ANZ typically but you gotta get good if you wanna win the big dance. Might as well warm up against Souths/Eels.

“ shiny happy smuggies”

Meet me at the ground, smuggies, smuggies!
Throw the ball around, pass it, pass it
Put them on the ground, happy, happy
Black is all around, and then pink shiny boots!

Shiny smuggie panthers holding hands
Shiny smuggie panthers all around
Shiny smuggie panthers holding hands
Shiny smuggie panthers in their land!

Take me to the club, flying, drinking
Big panthers at the door, happy, happy
Panthers on the prowl, growling growling
Brandy is a bore, happy happy

Shiny smuggie panthers all around!
Shiny smuggie panthers grand final bound
Shiny smuggie panthers wearing oak
Struggled v the roosters, please don’t choke!

Struggled! Really? We are 80 minutes, yes 80 minutes away from a grand final, while your team has already enjoyed their end of season celebration.

There's a difference between one eyed fans and the rest of the comp lol.
Yes obviously....my point is; all year we have heard..too young, too inexperienced, easy draw, going to struggle in big games, blah , blah, blah. Even when we had the minor premiership in our hands, they still wrote us off. Been so frustrating listening to this shit all year. Oh but wait! here we are at the Prelims and guess what! Panthers in the final 4 and suddenly they are the real deal! This is exactly how the team was perceived in 03. BRING IT ON!

It's what happens when you don't have success for a long time. Next year we'll be favourites.

Hopefully it turns out like 03.

Don’t care about next year Glory is ours this year .Lets win now

I agree now is the time. Origin hasn't been a distraction this year, maybe next year it will. Injuries have been relatively kind this year, next year who knows.
The young kids will improve but Tamou leaving will be a loss. As will Barrett. Maybe we lose another we want to keep with the vultures circling.
A golden opportunity we have right now. You never know what the future holds. Next year could be different and harder circumstances.
The time is now.

Yep. Parra and Souths were taping up injuries to key guys last week. So give them another week of bashing each other. Really this is as best chance as we may get for a while
Also Canberra roosters storm all stuck together only one gets theough
