Just watched the post game press conference, The look on Ivan’s face just made my day.
He is in my top 3 most hated People in Rugby League, Shame it wasn’t Smith (#1). Iv never watched a game of footy in my life where I couldn’t go for 1 team before, didn’t want Storm to win but couldn’t bring myself to actually want Penrith to win either, at the end of the day i just had to be happy that it was a shit game and one of them lost.

My hatred for Panthers this year was strong, so was cheering the Storm like it was the Sharks.

Still feel dirty but not seeing that fugwit Luai smiling makes it all worthwhile.

where does the penrith hate come from? great side this year... overawed and dumb last night, but god they had to come back from some horrendous finals style referreing in the first 30...the whole put your whistle away harrigan-era refereeing doesnt work when the Storm know they can spoil and spoil and spoil until the whistle comes back out.

in saying that...the bunker try to To'o is one of the worst ever decisions i've ever seen, and the Hughes bunker sin-bin was dooooodgy. who knew that video refereeing was going to hamper the enjoyment of the game?? WHO SAW THAT COMING???

I’m sure they did. How much did they pay for the warriors to be put up in resorts and hotels?

For me it isn't a Penrith hate, it is a Cleary one.

Totally classless the way he treated the Tigers, and I couldn't cheer for a team lead by him.

I really wish the NRL would come is and say a contract is a contract, start honoring them.

I could be wrong but seem to recall there be planned discussions about clubs not able to approach coaches under contract similar to approaching players before Nov 1. Would be a good start.

I’m 100% the same, my old man was a west’s fan and was so excited to have Cleary as coach and sadly passed just before Cleary abandoned ship.

I can see Cleary now the rain has gone. Sorry flog pun.
Agree on the Cleary hate.
Son caught out in that COVID bungle and lied through his teeth - got two weeks??
Coach Cleary walks out on Tigers and back into foot of the mountains with zero blowback - then blows a kiss at disgruntled Tigers fans as a bit of fun??
Footy Gods obviously felt both a Cleary’s deserve some Karma... being a bitch

It will never happen. Every club has been both a victim and beneficiary of it at some stage.

Why wasn't Smith sent off ? Remember when Tallis called the ref a cheat and was sent off straight away? Smith acused ref of reffing Panthers back into the game . Doesn't that mean cheating ? It would have been a fitting end to that game. Worst GF ever!

Panthers they had it all this year and no injuries.

Next year Tamou gone some depth gone as well, they will get injuries.

I think they will be lucky to make top 4
