An interesting thing about the Panthers is how little acollade the coach gets. Its all about the jnrs and little about the coach compared to say Bellamy or Robinson. Is he a great coach or just lucky enough to have had great jnr coaches who have given him great first graders?
I think the media are still off him because of how the Tigers exit played out, most of the hype for coaches and players is driven by the tabloids and crap like 360. He has always been a good coach that seems to get players playing above their weight. He doesn't give a lot away either, so not as interesting as Skeletor or Bellamy.

You were comparing 80s parra to Penrith today

parra didn’t have to worry about a salary cap

Penrith do

what Penrith have done is harder
Every other team didn't have a salary cap. Therefore if they had the funds they could poach. Which the likes of Manly were famous for.

Right now the panthers have achieved the same as the 20s roosters who won 2 in a row.

Kikau and api were forced out and still they dominated

parra didn’t lose good players basically every year because they weren’t allowed to keep them

you think api left for the tigers cause he wanted too

So you're a panthers fan now?

Players moved clubs in the 80s.

Panthers don’t deserve success, half their fan base defend an anal rapist, the coach is a flog, and the footy is boring.

Parra can go f**k themselves too.

Interesting comparision of the Parra 81-82 side v Penrith 21-22 side.

Parra used 22 players during these 2 grand finals.

Penrith used 21 during these 2 grand finals.

Yeah but for the comparison the 2020 side needs to be added. As does the 1983 Parra team
