Panthers v Cowboys

[mxlegend99]

Are you f**king serious?
By this logic any player that makes a mistake is a liability? Never played the game eh?

Are you braindead or what?

Any player whose negative contributions far exceed their positive ones is a liability. Especially when it happens every dinhle time he's on the field.

It's not a one off. It's his dntire career.

 

[mxlegend99]

This is fair and id like to hear a reasonable argument against it

The argument against it is akin to the penalty for 'stripping" Cowboys received. Its fiction based on what one person wanted to have happened.

Result should be irrelevant to an individuals performance.

If we lost would you yhink Maloney or JFH played poorly?

There are 17 players in a team. If one xan put ghe ogher 16 under the pump... he's clearly a liability.

Have a beer and chill out bro.

First run. Makes an error. Immediately throwing away momentum.

Second run. Is driven back. Our entire set results in a 9 metre gain... by far the worst set of the game for us not involving sn error.

Lazy high shot for a penalty agsinst us..

He was by far our worst player. I know you wantto suck his dick. (Sorry if you're simply related to him) But hes a momentum swinger against us. One opportunistic try does not erase all the shit moments.

His lowlights far exceed his single highlight

Too be fair, his 1st run was after he put a big shot on and won us the ball. He did make an error, but it was an unlucky one.

He may have been our worst, but he was far from the worst on the field.

I think your being a touch harsh.

This is most games for him though. i can't see him improving to be a solid first grader. Can you?

 

[cain3y]

Just goes to show how good of a win that was. 10 out of 10

 

[GongPanther]

A few players stepped right up tonight. After getting ripped off by that bunker blunder from last week,it seemed apparent that the Penrith players took it personal. Kudos also to the man who hasn't yet been mentioned in this or any thread since the win. And that is Panther coach Griffin. Much credit is going to flow his way after the first 4 weeks. What he is getting out of this squad especially after the injuries from the past fortnight,if there was an award for coach of the month,Hook wins hands down. Maybe a future Qld SOO coach?

 

[franklin2323]

How did he not deliver tonight though? Cos he made an error?

You just wanna put shit on someone cos you can’t criticise your usual suspects.

Pretty much this... He could mention Mansour's defence but only goes after those he doesn't like. I enjoy wins more with his inane rants that follow

 

[franklin2323]

To be fair worst player doesn't necessarily mean bad performance. The team set a high bar tonight in that regard.

Mansour was worse though so wasn't even the worst on our team

 

[Copperhead]

I wouldn't be critical of anyone after that performance, they really turned up to play tonight. Our forwards crushed the most vaunted pack in the competition.

I don’t see why not, he runs hard, hits hard. Work the errors out and he’s a solid player. Never going to be a world beater, doesn’t make our full strength 17, but I don’t have an issue with him continuing to be picked.

He's the type who will never lose the errors and doesn't have the upside to cover them imo. We have better bench options

We have seen it before, waqa is an example of turning it around, JFH also was diabolical in a few games last year. Kikau went through a patch of dickhands as well.

 

[OldPanther]

Mansour was worse though so wasn't even the worst on our team

Mansour is worrying me. Seems to be degrading each week. Someone at the club needs to have a chat and see if he's doing ok because he's a gun when in the right head space.

I agree though that we have better options, especially if we keep Egan on the bench.

Name one player ftom either team who had the dcsles tipped more against him than Leota?

You take the good with the bad... but with Leota thats a one sides saying.

Mansour did more in our favour than he did go hurt us. Momentum swung against us on Leotas first involvement. But hey ignore all that shit. Facts are frowned upon in arguments here.

His aggression in defence was second to JFH only. Kept the middle tight. Ran hard, tackled hard. Scored a try. Made a couple of errors granted & I’m not saying he was best on ground but there was a reason he was left out there for an extended period despite making errors, because he was making a positive contribution otherwise.

They did... and then Leota came on and things shifted.

Thought his first half was good and he ran hard but his second was weak

I'll watch again tomorrow sober haha. He just has so much dumb in his game
