Don't see us coming back here sadly.
No.

28-12, Panthers. Eight mins left.

Reality check. Let's get out of the top-four, it hasn't been helping us.

Taufa with a late try bust, which he nearly dropped over the line. 28-18, Penrith. Final.

DWZ injured but ref allows play to continue and Penrith score. DWZ should've laid down
The player who committed the illegal foul was the one who scored. Poor miss by refs and touchies.
I know bunker can't get involved anymore.

Yes. And the Broncos next week in Brisbane. Let's get the mats out, it might be like getting on the old hydro-slide.
:D Haha class.

I wanted to like this but I've had to turn dirtyfreeloader back on because the ads were making the site unusable for me.

What a mess.

I expected a bit of a wrestle in the first half. It's the Panthers, they weren't going to turn up without a fight. But it looked on track after Laban scored, the floodgates should have opened and well, I guess they did the opposite way.

Absolutely slaughtered our chances on their line, Talagi shouldn't have got anywhere near our line, we started letting the ball bounce for some crazy reason and it backfired almost every time. Injuries weren't helping obviously, but we eased off the intensity and mongrel for the first time in weeks and that did us.
