Garner in the centre was f**king nonsense.

Alamoti and Bri are our wingers. Tago and Mclean our centres. Jenkins straight replacement if one goes down. Edwards FB Laurrie in if hes down. Talagi, Cole straight in if a half is injured. Kenny DH, he won't be injured when it matters. Leota Smith. Papali'i and Henry middles off the bench. Patea if one goes down, then Huth. Martin Sorro edges. Garner off the bench, Geyer if one goes down. 14 Cole and if more than one half is down Schneider. The team picks itself. Pick and stick, no need to get creative unless we have multiple injuries in the same position. It's that simple, there's nothing to talk about. Run this shit back, times 5.

Was f**king never in doubt.
Garner did his job better then Tago has in ages. That first try was because Alamoti came in expecting Garner to miss. He didn’t. But Alamoti left an unmarked winger. If he trusts garner that edge doesn’t concede the try.

Tago off the field for a half of footy and we put in our best defensive display of the season. Aside from Alamoti not trusting Garner that first time.they looked in control of what was happening on that side of the field.

McLean ran down Dom young multiple times to the point they stopped playing for that overlap and he smashed tedesco which is always nice. Looks like some confidence will do them all a world of good but especially the new kids like Talagi who seemed really get into the second half. Hope Cleary isn't injured


You could almost see the confidence build. It was lovely to see.

According to Ivan it was a 'balls up' with the interchange. Neither player took part in the play. It was only seconds that there were 14 on the field.

Scotty was being treated near the sideline when Tago ran on. A couple of seconds later he came straight off without entering the actual play.
Ivan mentioned that this mix up cost us 2 interchanges. Which is probably punishment enough.
According to fox sports, should be at worst only a fine.

Did you happen to have a close look at the first try last week. I suggest you do.

The Dogs once put a 14th player on against us who created an overlap and scored the match winner and that only got a fine.
Wait it seems they did lose the points but we didn't get them. Was a very different situation though.

We already copped a punishment during the game losing our interchanges and Tago took no part in the game for us to gain any advantage.

It was only disadvantage for us. I dont see how we could lose 2 points. Fine even seems severe since we took no part in the game.

Panthers face sanction over interchange bungle in 40-12 win over Roosters​

The Penrith Panthers are set to be sanctioned by the NRL over an interchange bungle in their win over the Roosters, which saw them momentarily have 14 players on the field.

Penrith will face a sanction by the NRL after an interchange confusion led to the Panthers having 14 players on the field momentarily in their 40-12 win over the Roosters.
The bungle cost them two interchange cards and now they may face further punishment from the NRL who will review the mishap during the week. Despite their victory, they are no chance of losing any competition points given the accidental replacement had no impact on the play.

The mishap occurred with about 12 minutes left in the first half while the Panthers had the ball.
Back-rower Scott Sorensen was being checked for a dislocated finger by the on-field trainer. The trainer – Pete Green – indicated to the bench that further assistance was needed with the injury. It resulted in Sorensen moving towards the sideline where he was assessed by the medical staff.
The Panthers bench was on the other side of the field.

While Sorensen remained on the field but close to the sidelines, the Panthers rushed on bench player Izack Tago with the usual starting player relegated to the bench for the clash.
Tago ran on for just a matter of seconds and played no part in the play. He threw the interchange card onto the ground instead of handing it to the interchange official. The bungle was quickly realised by the sideline officials with Tago then rushed straight from the field. As Tago ran back off the field, Sorensen returned to take his place.
“The doctor came across…they were thinking I was coming off for an interchange,” Sorenson said. “That’s what they thought was going on. It was a bit of a misunderstanding. Once the finger went back in I was OK.”

The error resulted in Penrith immediately being sanctioned by being docked two interchange cards. The first was for Tago going onto the field and the second as punishment as per NRL guidelines after having an extra man on the field.
Tago eventually came back on the field after the half-time break after Luke Garner failed a concussion test.
While the Panthers will retain their desperately needed win, Canterbury lost two competition points in 2009 after fielding 14 players against the Panthers.

We ain’t losing again this year. All aboard.

I’m with you! For those brave Panther fans with optimism that Number 5 is still alive, Tab currently have Penrith at $13 to win the comp.

I put $500 on this last night. Thats a $6,500 payout if they win. And a wont tell my wife that I did it, if they don’t!

Been low on confidence.

Re Paul A taking last kick. Maybe just tired and a bit tight.....have no idea.

Nathan has had quite a few hamstring issues over the last few years. My guess was that and probably also fatigue. Nathan looks like he is struggling a little for fitness which is not surprising given his surgery.
