team v the slimys

[Pantha-Boy]

I think he should have one more chance if he plays bad he should be gone.

 

[murraymob]

josepth paulo deserves one spot on the bench.Aition will have one.Lewis is back this week there ae no places for him

 

[Pantha-Boy]

Well i want to see him have another go.

 

[murraymob]

are you brendan worth

 

[Caged Panther]

merged two threads on this weeks side together there is no reason to have two threads on the same subject

 

[Fibroman]

Grant, McKendry and Blackett will put alot of pressure on T's front row spot by the end of this season.

Iosefa will also keep Priddis and Aiton on their toes.

Paulo is already there and if keeps playing well, I fear that spells the end for junior Moors.

 

[Big Mick]

Worth got dropped to PL this week after 3 bad performances and just generally being sh*t.

 

[Pantha-Boy]

My Team:

1. Rhys Wesser, 2. Michael Gordon, 3. Michael Jennings, 4. Brad Tighe, 5. Luke Rooney, 6. Wade Graham, 7. Jarrod Sammut, 8. Petero Civoniceiva, 9. Luke Priddis, 10. Tony Puletua, 11. Frank Pritchard, 12. Luke Lewis, 13. Nathan Smith
RES: 14. Paul Aiton, 15. Frank Puletua, 16. Joseph Paulo, 17. Junior Moors
18. Bob Blair, 19. Matthew Bell, 20. Masada Iosefa

WHY DID YOU PUT GRAHAM AHEAD OF BLAIR YOU IDIOT.

 

[Big Mick]

ok...easy:

1. Graham has a kicking game
2. Graham is a leader of men
3. Graham is a better defender
4. Graham is a better short pass, short kick and organisational player and would be the perfect foil for Sammut
5. Blair misses far too many tackles close to the line.
6. Blair missed 2 tackles last week against the Sharks that led directly to tries.
7. Blair's kicking game is abysmal. Against the Roosters and Sharks his kicks either went straight to the fullback/winger...or one bounce and straight to their chest. It was also always low kicks...so it immediately put the chasers under pressure and gave the returning side an easy 15-20 metre return...10 more than they should realistically get with a good kicking game.

8 to infinity....you selected Worth as your starting prop when the idiot who can't even autograph his own name dropped the ball his first hit up both the last two games and has cost us 3 tries through poor defence. IMO the most WORTHless prop in the game.

They are my reasons. ...now...what are yours for keeping Blair??

Summed it up rather nicely there Mick

F.O.W.S. Stands tall!!!!!

Just a question how the hell does Rooney get picked for City? He is not even good enough too make a panthers side?

Also why didnt Jennings get picked in the City Origin side instead either on the wing instead of rooney or in either centre spot? Surely he was close to getting a call up for the senior team last year.

Im hoping is eligible and has re-aligned to NZ? and will line up in the centres next week.

 

[Panther_Daz]

I am getting the feeling Jennings has said yes to NZ.

 

[Pantha-Boy]

I have no idea why they have picked Rooney in the city side and why have they picked him in 1st grade. I d have the same team but Luachlan Coote at FB and gordon back to Rooney's wing.

 

[choc_soldier]

Would Jennings have been picked for City anyway?

Perhaps he has pledged his loyalty to NZ.

 

[Fibroman]

I hope Paulo makes a fist of starting in the top 13. He has a ton of potential. Interesting to see Peters in front of Aiton. I'd say Aiton might be injured, as he has been doing quite a good job for us this year off the bench with limited opportunities.

 

[Kilkenny]

Can anyone confirm whether Jennings or Tighe have been ruled out for this weekend.

Driving home a caller to Graham Hughes Talkin Sport "Panther Tragic" was talking about Michael Gordon playing in the centres this weekend?

Cant find anything on PI. MG seemed to know about and was talking about how he thinks Mick Gordon is suited to playing centre?

 

[Big Mick]

he played centre the second half against the Sharks with Jenko on the wing.

 

[Kilkenny]

he played centre the second half against the Sharks with Jenko on the wing.

Hopefully, that is the answer. Despite our recent wins we still haven't produced the sort of football to provide attacking opportunities to Jennings who is arguably our most potent attacking weapon with Rhys somewhat out of sorts for the time being.

 

[Kilkenny]

I'll be very interested to see how Junior Moors shapes up this weekend.

He is almost certainly the biggest under achiever within the club and his time is running out despite being signed through next season.

I've been out to Windsor on three occasions this season and he has performed reasonably well but still doesn't quite give the impression he is going to carve up in the top grade despite having all the attributes.

For the sake of his career I would put him in the front row. He needs to be brought in closer to the action as having him out wide simply isn't working in my opinion.

 

[murraymob]

Riddel could be in doubt for the slimmys.Luke lewis came through the game well and will come onto the bench.Only change to Penrith may be Brad Tigh who has to pass a ftness test on his hamstring today .Thats why there has been talk of gordon to the centers
