What about your arrogance in not taking the opportunity for 2 points on 2 occasions?
Nathan conceded as much on the Footy Show on Sunday. Much easier to make the better decision after the game though.

In your case the 2 point fg attempt is pretty high risk. Moses wouldn't have too much trouble with the distance, but the clutch element of it is stacked against him. Going for the try and maybe hope for a kickable penalty was the safer play.

I can only assume we wanted an 8 point buffer. With fatigue coming into the back half of the game, maybe they thought they would get it.
I always thought the last 20 minutes one of the sides was going bust the game open and score a try.

All this Drama could have the NRL slot Round 1, 2022 "Battle of the West, Spite Night".
Anyway when is Brad Arthur going to realise the Ex Panthers in his squad are "Ex" for a reason.

Dunno about that, I thought RCG was excellent - best prop on ground. And Waqa Blake had a great game too.
Carty didn't miss a tackle, no mistakes in his short stint.
Will Smith conceded a couple of penalties, but was solid all round. Definitely had plenty of worse games in our colours.

Yep, hard to disagree.

Surprised they didn’t bring Smith on for Stone for the last 15, can only assume they ran out of interchanges.

We didn't need to, we were already ahead, that's why we continued on trying to get tries, the great moses, and queen gutho don't share a brain cell to realise that they needed to atleast even the score before the 80mins was over, they should have realised by 75th minute, maybe a 2 point FG would be something to aim for since scoring any other points and lacking of referee penalties weren't going your way... just dumb game management...

Maybe during the off season, if fergo still has a contract, he can train on his fake neck injuries, but closer to the oppositions try line, maybe then you'll win these tight contests

No need to get aggressive dude or be arrogant yourself. You haven’t won anything yet and will be labeled chokers if you lose next week.

You come across more cocky and dumb than your players doing gangster handshakes after the game.

Good luck next week, you’ll need it.

We will need it but if we are a little more composed, get through our sets doing the basics right, take the 2 when the penalty is right in front or within Nathan's kicking range, Kikau doesn't have a brain fart like he can we might jag the win, take care champ and hope you don't get done over by the player managers during the off season, you have quite a few to tie up

I just read that this was the "number one game on Fox Sports of all-time."

Its nice that the Panthers were able to give all those people the result they tuned in for.
