Taufua is on now.

 

[roopy]

If Matt White and Tuafua haven't pushed Wicks out of the side i don't know what they have to do.

Ok, got it now, my mistake, looked at NRL stats and his were 0000, so assumed he didn't get a start.

What happened to Simmo?

Nice quality from Wicks, first touch dropped.

 

[Misanthrope]

Wicks made eight tackles, eight runs, and 61 metres or somesuch.

Look forward to seeing more of his ineptitude next round

it's all in the pre game thread.
Vuna dropped.
Simmo not fit, reason unknown.

Does anyone know the final penalty count. I had it 12-3 against us, but NRL.com lists it as 1-1.

:lol: I was sitting in front of two Penrith fans at the game who though Badger jipped them :lol:.

I said how do you get jipped with a 12-3 penalty count?

 

[Nuffy]

How good is Kids going............................ he's outstanding.

On the penalties, some justified, some once again deadset unlucky.

Panthers should be leading by 30 based on the amount of 1st half ball.

 

[roopy]

I think the penalty count in the second half goes 2-2 and final count is 10-3 against us.

 

[Misanthrope]

Penalty count finished at 10-3 according to thescore.com.au

Junior Sau is a goer and the Dog has had his best game for a while.

Wicks in finished in FG for a while when Simmo is back, Taufua, Tolar and White provided better value than the muffin man.

 

[Nuffy]

And the Ginga scores!!

 

[roopy]

Kurt is doing the business.
How did we win without Bedsy and Kidley? - oh yeah - it was the Bulldogs.

 

[Burwood]

I've never been able to work out why MacDougall hasn't learned not to tackle defenders in mid-air. Everytime a bomb goes out to his wing I cringe at the stupid penalty he is likely to give away- he would have to give one away at least every second game.

 

[Nuffy]

The Dog must be trying to negotiate another contract, he's going well.

 

[Apey]

Aren't you allowed to tackle attacking players in the air? The problem was the guy didn't even have the ball :lol:

Great effort despite a sh*t penalty count, although I'll have to admit, a lot of it was justified this time. Gidley is just awesome, played hooker in attack and fullback in both attack and defence.

If we can manage a win against the Sharks next week I'll be over the moon. :crazy:

 

[KniGhTs BaTTLeR]

Gus just said that Wes played the whole game with a broken foot. Thats courage but I hope he spends sometime on the sideline because his playing sh*thouse. sau is awesome he cant get dropped now.

I don't think anyone had a set position except for the props everyone seemed to be siwtching roles. Bailey Mullen and Kids were swapping all the time as were Sau and mad dog and Mcmanus and Wes. Houston was in the backrow more than once and cirlado and zeb were both in the centers at one stage, who needs positions?

 

[Burwood]

You can tackle attacking players mid-air, but that little passage of play just reminded me of what he usually gets up to. At least he has finally looked to have gotten the lifted knee out of his game.

Ah okay, I couldn't help but laugh when it happened though. :crazy: Intimidation technique :sarcasm:

 

[Burwood]

A MacDougall brain fart. He is starting to play some solid footy now that he is stringing consecutive games together- one of his biggest injury concerns so far this year has been the flu!
