Match Discussion: Round 15 vs Penrith @ McDonald Jones Stadium, New Lambton / Awabakal

[Walk On Home Boy]

Literally slow motion when Cogger and Hastings get the ball. So predictable. Comically snail like.

 

[Knight Tales]

Bradman enormous. He deserves that left centre spot for Origin. Easily the player of the match.

Seriously, f**k off Cogger.

 

[macavity]

Jacko is ESL level.

Cogger is Group 12 level.

 

[Haffa]

Decent second half. 1%ers cost us.

Ah it was season over the moment Kalyn went down really.

I think the loss of Gamble has been just as big tbh.

He’s not a world beater but even just keeping Cogger out is incredibly valuable.

 

[K-Man]

Well at half time my Panthers 1-12 bet wasn't looking too good. Somehow it's actually paid off.

No I agree, he's no world beater but he's important to us.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

As shocking as Brailey was a few times, that's on Cogger and Hastings again. Totally pedestrian in motion. No power behind long kicks. Easily allows Penrith to make 90m every set.

Rest of the team absolutely breaking their backs trying to win. Not for the first time this year. The club should be in complete panic mode trying to find 2 remotely serviceable/competent halves.

By all reports they are. There’s just very little available. Hopefully O’Sullivan will be able to help a bit in that regard.

 

[Loose Cannon]

Good fightback from a team that will never need not to.

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Cogger is the worst. Just the worst.

My personal most despised "worst Knight ever".

That includes AK47, Tolar, Rudder, Darius Boyd, Ramien, Kirk Reynoldson and all of those park footballers we used to sign on big money.

 

[Apey]

We've done alright the last 2 weeks. Just don't quite have the brains nor the talent to take advantage of the effort.

 

[slotmachine]

If only the team could get rid of the six or seven complete brain fades / lack of efforts per game we'd be going OK

Greg Smith was more qualified for his appointed assignment.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

I'd be tempted to play Lucas at 5/8 next game if KPP is fit. No option is going to fix our poor kicking so may as well go full running and defending 5/8

 

[Haffa]

As shocking as Brailey was a few times, that's on Cogger and Hastings again.

That’s on all three of them. Brailey is just as much of a hand brake.

I think there's a recency bias there, but he's on the list.

I honestly believe if Tyson plays instead of Cogger we go close to winning today, and you might not even need Tyson... just less Cogger. There were problems for sure, but the team was up for that game and they had a real crack at it. Jack forfeited any chance we had to be within realistic striking range, over and over again.

 

[The Axe of Druss]

Jacko is ESL level.

Cogger is Group 12 level.

That's an insult to the mighty Menindee Yabbies

 

[Walk On Home Boy]

Frustratingly, we have some absolute weapons in the side currently. Best, Thompson, Gagai, Frizell, Lucas can all make things happen and would make any side.

Useless halves and a washed up/broken 9 means they're all scarcely utilised and have to fight tooth and nail to make an impact. Beyond frustrating to watch Cogger with the ball in almost stop-motion like movement. He is a complete anchor and surely cannot play NRL ever again.
