History of the town they call Penrith Part 2
737 Words
A history of the Penrith Panthers. Trying to put substantial content into something like this to make it interesting reading is always going to be difficult with a 750 word limit. It suffered because of that, in that each year is very brief. Maybe doing something like a history could be spread over 3 or 4 articles, so that more content from each year could be added. The writer researched the piece well. Some minor spelling errors that were not penalised.

I had difficulty scoring this one. A good subject but was lacking in construction, with a couple of contradictions in the Lance Thompson case, one paragraph had him not honouring his contract, and another had the club at fault. All the ingredients are there; just a little more time spent on tidying it up would have seen a better score.

The Sharks are the PVP Shield winners for 2005
Close game. The Knights were very consistent across the board, the sharks showed that little extra flair with two pieces that stood out.
