Lindsay Smith picked in the Australian squad!

Such great news and so well deserved. He really is developing into a complete footballer and I’m stoked he’s been noticed!

This will be huge for him and in turn, the 2025 Panthers.

It's really cool and well deserved. He reminds me a lot of Yeo in how he runs and tackles.

Its surprising but well deserved.

And for our club just a massive bonus. They always say players go to another level once they have played rep football. The fact that he is in the Australian squad and we have a recent vacancy in our front row with JFH leaving is just perfect timing.

Even paid tribute to Trent by doing a pitch perfect impersonation in the seventy ninth minute.

The spray that Luai gave him and the death stare was legendary.

Hopefully we have someone left in the squad for next year who has that standing within the group to deliver that spray/feedback when it's needed.

It went from 99.9% win chance to 99.5%.

The Storm had time to go score, decline the kick and then score off the kick off. Extremely unlikely but not impossible.

Don’t think that was spray tbh think he was just getting him to focus on the next minute.

But yeah we will miss that leadership from Luai. We’ve got it on other blokes but it so valuable having guys holding each other accountable and Luai does that for that left side. Luarie, cole talagi are going to take time to get that, they will be busy trying to get the spot locked down.

Gets folded far more than anyone in our team. He's a tough kid, will just continue to keep trucking no matter how many times he gets smashed. I'd like him to try and threaten with his footwork more when players rush up on him to try and length his career and avoid getting pumped so much. Gun tackler though.

Trent Toelau can't make the NRL side. Now a kiwi test player.

Atleast McLean just had a beast in Alamoti in front of him

Wasn’t he captain for New south Wales juniors or was that his brother. I am sad for NSW either way.

Think Jesse, both born here though so they have the choice in the seniors. Picking Casey is cleary just a way to keep out of the nsw/aus system as once he has played he cant change(i think). Smart move from them considering how good he looks.
