Vs Panthers Finals

[Philip_Smith007]

Clear example of no communication or plan.
Luke kick through and everyone back.
Mansour takes it dead.

 

[Cold Roses]

But also the squad, pack isn't up to this,

Kearney made the decision about halfway through the season to go with a smaller, more mobile, defensive forward pack. It hasn't worked.

6mins left.
0% chance of winning.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Mansour knocks bomb and called all Warriors sums it up.
Shoulder charge missed as well by JFH

That can't be right, the commentators have assured us the warriors pack is enormous.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Maloney sold his soul.
What an amazing kick.

 

[Alan Johnson]

8 places better than the Spoon, which is what we were supposed to be getting. Not too shabby.

 

[JJ]

Hope Johnson is watching Maloney

Better than expected before a ball kicked.
But disappointing when we saw what they where capable of.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Hope Johnson is watching Maloney

That's all he seemed to be doing.
Johnson isn't capable of that kind of tough , rugid, mental game.

 

[gordynz]

Harris and Tevaga were huge for us but that's it. As soon as Gavet went down in the second tackle of the game I had a feeling it was going to be one of those games where nothing went right.

 

[TheDMC]

Well gutted but fair chop to Penrith they were awesome in that second half. Johnson and green were utter mud. SJ disappeared for 76 minutes.

 

[Big Marn]

brave effort defensively. something like 85 tackles more than penrith but missed less. Unfortunately missed some important ones.

The young ones were exposed in the playoffs which should have been expected.

Tevaga pinged twice for the same thing, Kata and Maumalo not upto the pressure of finals.
That side of the field is a serious problem that wont be remedied with our only buy of the season in Leeson Ah Mau.
Hope someone is coming up in reserve grade thats going to send Kata back to reserve grade.

 

[Alan Johnson]

Harris and Tevaga were huge for us

Yeah fair play to Tevaga. Harris is what genuine quality looks like.

 

[Sphagnum]

Bad luck guys. Disappointing performance from Shaun Johnson. Expected him to at least try and do something in the second half.

 

[Philip_Smith007]

Turning points.
Kata penalty play the ball.
Blair offload at line, Panthers knock on not picked up.
Maloney 40/20.
Luke kicking out restart on full.
RTS injury.
Kata defensive reads.
Kata bad play the ball.
SJ not coming out of shreds mentally at half time.
Panthers kicking game.

 

[Cold Roses]

That can't be right, the commentators have assured us the warriors pack is enormous.

Yeah sorry, what I meant was, our huge forwards got gassed and ran out of steam.

 

[sup42]

Got to adress the Elephants in the room.

Mannering should have retired last week, missed vital tackles.

Kata without reading other posts I have little to say about....dude killed us.

Lastly why are we paying SJ a million to start playing in the last 6 minutes.

Bombing to the Panthers on the 4th which hasnt worked for him since 2008....ten years....while Penrith used the tactic that has been working for SJ this year....kicking to the in goal

Hope SK gets the broom out...again.

 

[JJ]

Meh the pack is big enough it's just not good enough

Tevaga tries hard but seriously he's not what's needed

Penrith were great though that was a pounding

 

[Philip_Smith007]

When is SJ contract up?
While little options around, this should be his last big money one as not delivering constantly.
