Round 5 vs Raiders

[roofromoz]

Would like to think that last week was just a blip, where we were at say 80% and Parra were at 120%... we shall wait and see.

Looking forward to the return of the chocolate soldiers tonight, though.

Some good weather for football, hopefully it holds. I like the look of all three teams, we should and I think will win well.

 

[chrisD]

We could put 50 on here in this second half, Cartwright in the mood.

I like to congrats Dalline for hes first grade debut, a good role model to all the panthers youngters coming through ,respect, character, and staying focus.
a star of the future.

 

[chrisD]

Well said mate.

 

[umina panther]

f**k knew I should of put some money on first try. Anyone get DWZ?

 

[Doomednow]

Anyone who said our current halves were no better than Walsh got shown tonight.

Idris played a great game overall. Plum just falls over when he gets to the line. Plenty of other decent performances considering the conditions (still thought there was maybe a little too much dropped ball)

Poor start to the second half, just couldn't get out of our end, but great defensive finish.

 

[Panther Pete]

I just listened to the game on the radio and was having a heart attack in the last few minutes but great to hear the boys held on. The commentators said our line speed was fantastic all night which is a good sign. Very happy for DWZ to score two in his NRL debut, here's hoping there are many more to come for him!!

 

[herbert henry1908]

Another heart stopper.


DWZ will be hard to unseat from our back line. Was great to have some pace out there.


Mansour another huge effort. I really hope we can re-sign him.



Soward is also really showing up some people who laughed at us signing him. Wallace was solid too.

I thought we were poor - we are still miles away from clicking, and we are still playing bloody Kingston in the second row FFS! - but the Raiders were well worse, so fair enough. Our attack is still very weak, but the conditions obviously didn't help. Go DWZ! Soward and Wallace are so obviously better than Walsh and John, though Wallace offers bugger all in attack.

 

[umina panther]

I normally HATE Kingston in the second row but in a game that wet his tackling mattered

 

[Blackkat]

We keep that team, we win more than we lose.

Footnote: Someone teach Mansour to run and catch

So play him as the dummy half.

We may do, assuming we start playing better. That team in its current form won't.

 

[Pomoz]

It was really noticeable when Manu, Grant and McKendry were off we started to lose ground with our defence. Latimore and Plum run plenty of metres, but we weren't holding the line. Other points:
-Manu still isn't fit and we need him to get a bit of size in the back row.

-We are a much better team when Wallace plays. He brings the best out of Soward.

-Moylan's kick returns are too slow. He doesn't seem to hit top speed and he stands too upright.

-DZW is a cool customer. Makes a few mistakes but still shows up when it counts.

-Our two centres missed zero tackles. Idris is a great defender and surprisingly skilful. He is obviously still not fully fit but he is a great addition to the team.

-Sowards kicking is so good it is like having an extra forward on the bench. He kept Canberra pinned down for many sets.

-Brown needs a spell in reggies. he is off form. At the moment, Peachy offers more.

Other than setting up the try for DZW obviously.

 

[umina panther]

Soward man of the match

Yes. Obviously. Not that difficult, is it?

 

[billypilgrimnz]

Soward man of the match

Yes.
