Missing a pointless game would be getting kissed on the dick and doing Ivan's work for him

All Panthers players went well.

To'o 260m is nuts

 

[Iamback]

No surprise the attack went better when Teddy got out of the way.

He is useless

If only Turbo was fit. Teddy is Edwards now

Worse than Edwards. Atleast Edwards straightens up.

That 1st half the ball never got to the Critter/Tupou or Murray.

He kept running back inside and ruining the shape

And falling over.

He's still good but he's not what he was for sure

And falling over.

Kotoni Staggs got no ball game 1. Both tries on the left

Was same until halftime here.

Even Crichton got a few decent touches as the game went on.

Really needs to be phased out of the team

Need to get Mitchell and Tom Turbo into the side somehow. Getting rid of him helps

Burto isn't going anywhere for 10 years I promise that

We will see.

Freddy is a bum. No way Wighton and those 2 don't play when fit

Best game from Cleary since game 1/2 last year, can’t remember which he truly dominated. He’s been a great general for the last year but throw in some great runs, a sexy af kick for the Burto try, bomb of a pass for Toops try and tucking Kalyn in for the night for good measure, he romped the Maroons.

Cleary OWNS Ponga

Well it won't be Tom Turbo this year. Mitchell will come in for Crighton. Burton will stay at centre.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

Are u suprised?

Ive said for 12 to 18momths hes best spot will be centre or 2md row.

Having said that you love to hate on luai.....


Hes set up multiple tries this series and scored a blinder tonight.

There is zero doubt in my mind luai is the better 6. I love burts kicking game but hes best feature is just his straight running.

Playing on an edge allows him to do that...

Anyway.... no injuries for our boys

Don’t always (often?) agree with you Girss, but 100% on this one.

I also think if he bulks up he could be awesome as a ball-player through the middle. Imagine Yeo with a kick (and no @Munky, todays ‘touch-finder’ does not demonstrate that the great man can kick…)

I doubt they will put Mitchell in and definitely not on the right.

 

[ColdWetPanther]

I understand your enthusiasm but maybe stretching it a little bit.

I think the individual comparisons is probably stretching, but I also think the team combos we have would make it a close run thing. The beauty about the Panthers is everyone has a job that is matched to their skill set; it is hard to replicate that in a rep setup.

He is useless

I wouldn’t underestimate the value of the metres Teddy made in the first half. The outside backs for QLD were up very quick all night, and Teddy using his fast feet back through the ruck made a lot of metres at the time when the game was in the balance.

I’ve been a critic of Teddy in the past, but today I thought he was one of the blues best (generally they were all good, but Cleary, Paulo and the back three the standouts for me).
