Panthers’ Achilles’ heel has been exposed and an Origin star with it. Writing them off could spell doom

A good article from fox for once.

A good article which addresses what pretty much everyone knows. The team hasn't evolved its attack since Kikau and Api left the club. Its either we improve the precision over the course of the season or we revamp.

Back 3 return metres are fine, defence is the best in the league by a fair margin.

Looks like they get all there analysis from in here.

Andrew Jackson is fair writer. I have read some good stuff from him over years on Fox and Twitter.

Yeah they head hunted me. I turned down the job I get paid more to post on here.

Blade saying we after a backrower says to me they think Garner will only be back up or something up with Martin (either he goes to prop or is moving on)

I thought Martin had re-signed. Has this fallen through perhaps ?

He had that 1 year extension that has been confirmed awhile back. He hasn't play really this season, maybe the extra years have been put on hold.

Nope.

 

[Aliceinwonderland]

Nope.

Thanks.

Is about that time when the Woman’s Football World Cup is on? I know Stadium availability has been a bit up in the air around that time.

Confirmed. Marvel Stadium.

So I'd rather none of our players play state of origin.. but it obviously is important to them so hopefully they stay fit for it than us for the rest of the year..

I'd say certainties are nath, yeo, too...

Luai is probs in with a good chance for game 1.

Critta I don't see getting picked.

Marto would probs have been there if it wasn't for injury. If he can get a few solid games under his belt before than we might be without him too.

I think a real smokey is Spencer lenui. I've seen a few journos name him in their team.. I really think he might get picked.. I'm pretty sure he fits the criteria and he played for the blues in the u20s. He wouldn't look out of place.

If teddy goes down I truly think they will pick dylan at fb too.

Only bloke with no chance who was their last year is critta I'd say. Few others ahead of him..

Worst case I think we could be without Edwards (if injuries to teddy), too, luai, nath, yeo, marto, Spencer.

That's a lot of blokes to cover and our nsw cup team is doing bog average atm.

Can see the origin period being extremely tough this year on the club.

We don't have the cattle to replace blokes..

I guess worst case if for some reason all those blokes get picked I'd run with-

Iongi or Turuva
Turuva- daeon
Critta
Tago (hopefully he's back)
McLean
Cole
Cogger
Eiso
Luke
Fish
Soro
Hosking
Kenny (play the 80 tackle all day and get into hooker after Luke's had a scoot and been tackled and pass it straight to the halfs)

Peachy (hooker cover if Luke is struggling otherwise fill in anywhere)
Lindsay Smith
Leota (not a demotion- just trying to even out the bench quality and a bit of impact)
Salmon

Anyway, that'd be worst case... we are certainly going to do it tough.

Looks good, but I think Huth is a straight swap for Yeo. Probably the only role he's really well suited for imo.

 

[Kilkenny]

Cleary and Yeo will obviously get picked for origin.

Luai I think may miss out, he just isn’t in good enough form.

Martin will certainly miss game one on the back of no footy.

If Spencer gets a bench spot well that would would certainly be the ultimate kick in the guts.

Crichton no chance.

To'o is also a sure thing

 

[Kilkenny]

Sorry I missed him in my rant.

That is a certainty, Still we will drop a few games in that time

Tago and McLean won't be back. Atleast not for the Dragons game. Hopefully a couple can back up
