From the preview on the game:

Griffin's men are storming home late in matches with 25 tries in the final 20 minutes of games this season – more than any other side in the Telstra Premiership. They're grinding out gritty wins on the back of strong defence and despite not playing their best attacking football, have conceded 71 line breaks this season – 37 fewer in comparison with the Tigers. Don't expect the Panthers to give away any seven tackle sets either with Cleary's kicking game on point to only concede 13 for the season – the second best behind Newcastle (9).

There is certainly a lot more resolve and heart defensively than we had earlier in the year, we scramble well now but we still miss tackles more than we should. 31 against the doggies. We also seem to not be as quick to get around the legs of players standing in tackles, this may be because earlier in the year we weren't wrapping the ball up well and conceded a lot of late offloads and now are focusing too much on that. Overall they have definitely improved defensively, I'm happy with that for sure.

I think we score so many late tries because it takes us 50 minutes to calm down and start playing patiently.

I'm hoping to see a big game from Carty, he was actually hitting a few guys hard last week which he can do if they run straight at him.

You obviously haven't noticed the "Wests" in Wests Tigers.

In fact,anywhere west of the harbour bridge is Westie country.

Inner west ...hunters hill
Cant compare Penriff to the inner west....lol
Places like Mt Druitt,Doonside and Plumpton.....dumps

The reason people live out your way is because.....THATS ALL THEY CAN AFFORD....lol

Not sure if he'll be in the right frame of mind, Just read his ex partner has passed away. Horrible if true.

Tedesco will run at him like he did last time twice.....
Do him for speed and set up his winger...
Thats why cartwright missed out on origin...hes a poor defender.

He has very poor lateral movement so a guy like Tedesco will always have a chance to turn him inside out, that was on the edge though, he's been playing in the middle since he came back and is a more than adequate defender there with the defensive line being compressed.

He was hurt for origin and had barely played this year, he wasn't even in contention. Last time we played Moylan carved you up and we put 30 on in a clunky attacking display though u guys bombed a couple tries.

Edit: I missed your earlier trolling efforts, eat a dick you inner west fruitloop.
