World Cup 2022 discussion

Thought I might make this thread seeing as the first game starts in a couple hours and a fair few of our boys are playing

Former Panther Tyrone May just suffered a nasty injury. Stretchered off.

Samoa look underdone to me.

Luai getting BADLY found out

 

[snickers007]

Few injuries for Samoa messed up their rotations, forcing some to play much longer minutes.

Plus their spine is terrible. Neither Milford or Luai have any game management, Danny Levi has the slowest dummy half service in the game, and Suaalii is simply not a fullback.

Thought England played at 3-4 gears above Samoa all game. Great line speed, tackled in pairs, and played at the advantage line.

Best we can hope for with this Samoan team is that the Panthers cohort come home uninjured.

I'll die on this hill and I know I'm f**king right. Burton is such a better footballer than Luai and no one try the hEs A bEtTeR fIT wItH cLeRy shit

Cleary and Burton never played together to establish any kind of 'fit'. I'll admit, I was one who thought they were too alike to work together. But seeing Burton this year, I reckon it would have been epic to see.

Luai has had the easiest job in the world. Let Cleary do all the hard stuff, and he just needs to feed Kikau, Tago/Burton, May/To'o as they stroll into a yawning gap.

Not saying Luai is bad but he needs "merkin" in his game to fire. It was no where to be seen tonight. He's on holiday it seems

Well that was f**king shit

He didn’t play good but not sure what he’s supposed to do. Don’t think Samoa touched the ball for the last 20 mins. Forwards were weak as piss

"Merkin" what does that mean?

Penrith are such a good side because of the dominant middle.

Yeoweh and Fish (with Leota to a lesser extent) are the James Hetfields of the NRL. They zero in on their rhythm and are near perfect.

Yeo is a human metronome in attack and defence with everything he does being executed at the highest possible level.

Luai and the other blokes are now going to be playing an extended run of games without the best player in the game making all the decisions off the ruck. Hopefully they learn the lesson that they are just bit parts in a great scheme.

Even better if the WC plummets their market values.

Also, big kudos to Huth who did a fantastic job filling in for Yeo this year. No wonder Ivan gave him his ring since Penrith lock is probably the toughest role in the game.

It's disgraceful that Yeo isn't the first name on the Kangaroos' team sheet.

There’s a lot of Parra fans on social media “celebrating” England’s win.

Whatever makes them feel better I guess…..

It’s understandable. The Samoan contingent of Penrith men are those within your club that outsiders do not like the most. It’s nice to see them shown up because they aren’t as good as it is claimed they are.

3 grand final in a row says your wrong.The difference between the best and worst player in the pacific teams is way wider than the big 3 teams

It's the word filter for the C word. It's also a pubic wig.

It's the system.

Luai, Critter and Leniu are low involvement players when on the back foot.

It just happens so rarely at Penrith.

To'o will beast it at all times but can be taken out of the game if the rest of the back three are weak ball runners.
