Round 26 v The Eels

[Iamback]

Worth the risk. Tago and Sorro can handle the extra defence.

Just need his footwork and to troll the opposition

Cronk vibes here - protecting Romey in defence if required

Luai news is good. Best we could hope for to be honest.

Its crucial we win week one of the finals. Takes out any chance of us forcing our hand and playing Luai week two of the finals. Even just for the rest of the team and those guys carrying injuries. The week off will be very important this year.

I have to say one player the club f**ked up on is Hopgood. I know you have Yeo but there was a spot for him in the 17 somewhere. I'd go as far as saying he has been the signing of the year and at a low cost. I understand losing guys like Kikau,Spencer,Burton who are chasing the big coin but Hopgood was one you let slip thru the net. I think he'll play origin next year and be the future captain of the Eels.

He wanted to go for the opportunity, The club can't do anything in those cases

I didn't expect him to be much more then a solid NRL player.
But he is along side RCG as Parras best forward.


Anyhows great news on Luai. Lets hope win week 1 and he is back for the preliminary

He can only play lock and we have a better one

To’o is used to having one of the best legs tacklers of his generation inside him. Critta is a pretty freakish defender and having a different guy inside will take some adjustment for Biz.

I like Salmon inside Cleary because Cogger is no five eighth. Chuck him in the 14 in case Salmon/Kenny gets gassed because Luke is not the answer this year at least.

Gotta love the reach around....
Talking up the Panthers, while still got his head under water with the Eels

NZ are going well. We will need to be at our best.

There is one constant in Panther fandom, I feel just as bad today as I did 70s, 80s, 90s, and 00s losing all 3 grades to Parra. Fortunately it don’t happen as often nowadays.

Penrith will be at Penrith Park week 1 of the finals. That was sorted out last weekend,

He is saying facing NZ at Penrith is a good result. I can see how you read it the way you did though at first glance.
