Round 2 v Roosters

[Chins]

They are all awful, how can you pick 1?

Because this is just a normal game for Tago

 

[kinghippo]

Well, the new stadium certainly doesn’t look to be our fortress.

 

[Girds89]

We start the year slow traditionally.

Coming off vegas.

A roosters team against all odds..

Not the worst thing for our season.

 

[Panther Mike]

Disgraceful to lose to the Roosters like this and to lose our streak against the Roosters like this. Stupid planning to move a four time premier team to Commbank Stadium where we have no feel for the ground and have hardly ever even played well at this venue. With the effort levels and system breaking down we see how average some of these players are and how the cap has screwed us.

 

[Hamstring awareness]

Surely we aren’t blaming the ground for this showing?

 

[Someone2]

LMFAO!!!

Letting 38 points in sums up where the panthers are this year.The worrying thing is our line speed in defence .The roosters had us easy

 

[Murraymob1]

f**king Ennis. Knew he was going to put the mocker on.

 

[Hamstring awareness]

A game to forget for To’o

 

[age.s]

Clear would have missed the sideline conversion anyway. It was that kind of night.

 

[Fangs]

Don't try and rewrite history. This isn't Trump's America. This is reality.

That was one of the greatest wins of all time. Roosters deserve every bit of praise possible.

 

[Girds89]

Panic button no..

Suck it up LU posters.

Watch us keep the score to under 12 next week and roll on.

Not concerned.

We have a lot of things to work on but well be ok.

 

[Munky]

The single handed carries in slippery conditions were dumb as f**k.

 

[Panther Mike]

A premiership team doesn't concede 38 points to a team expected to miss the 8. The Roosters are one of my most hated teams (the streak over them really meant something to me!) and to lose them when they are supposed to be at their lowest ebb is completely unacceptable.
Based on that performance we'll struggle to even make the 8. Hopefully it's just early season rust and Vegas hangover.

 

[age.s]

Everyone was putrid, but holy shit did that rugger convert give Tago a bath. He was excellent.

 

[kinghippo]

Oh well, closer than we deserved.
I doubt we see anything like that again for a while.
Raises a few selection questions though. Roosters had more energy and hunger than us, everyone steps up vs the champs and we didn’t respond.
