Panthers lower grades thread 2023

[Westernised Panther]

If we have a spot in the 30 left give it to sommerton before another club does.

Falls has fallen off a cliff. He seems lost out there today.

Most sides with the amount of ball manly have had would be up by 20 or more .Lets not forget they have a lot of guys who have played first grade .Well woods once was a first grader

I reckon Lisati looks good. The whole team are making far too many errors. Hold the ball, we will win the game.

It was an atrocious first half from us. If the can get the basics right they should come home strong. Breeze will be against us 2nd half but the forwards and backs running hard are creating momentum they just need to hold the ball and cut out the penalties

I think sommerton lacks the speed to be a top nrl 9.

He's more crafty than Kenny but similar speed.

If he continues to develop he'll be solid.. similar to wade Egan mold.

Frustrating to watch Peachey’s slow service from dummy half. The momentum turned once Sommerton came on.

Sommerton is pushing some serious claims for first grade selection.

And Lisati is huge! Could he potentially answer the Kikau conundrum?

Lisati was the long term plan. Another year in Cup and he will be a weapon.

So easily the best hooker at the club capable of playing regularly?

Happy to be only 6 down after that abomination of a half.

I'd take Egan back in a heartbeat. So if Somerton can play at that level I'm good with it.

Right now the best combo at the club is Kenny Luke.

People watch these nsw cup games and froth over players.

Sommerton came on at the end and scored against a couple tired forwards.

Was a simple try which he executed well but that opportunity is way harder in fg...

Defences aren't as sloppy. He basically went in untouched. That doesn't happen in fg... especially not with the slower hookers.

It's a big level down from nrl.

If he can have a really big year and consistently perform at a high level than he'll be in the 30 next year.

It's the same with someone like blacker. People see him in nsw cup make a few strong runs and think man he's fg...

When in reality is very avg

Somerton not being in first grade is just a matter of time

Good pick up from Henry.

We can't count on Luke. He's just too fragile

Henry paying 100/1 to pick that up on the dive lol

 

[soc123_au]

This is much better.

Criminal if he isn’t being considered

 

[Westernised Panther]

We can't count on Luke. He's just too fragile

Which is why Sommerton has to be the next man up

 

[betcats]

Sommerton has made a huge difference. Try on half time, good run to get us into attacking kick position for the 2nd try and great short side play for the 3rd.

 

[Girds89]

Liam Henry is solid...

But I struggle to see him making a dent in fg.

He lacks power.

This will sound rude but he's very much in the Aidan tolman mold.
