Convince me Panthers won't smash us Rd2

[dice]

The last time we were these odds Mini slotted a field goal to beat the Sharks.

The only thing I’m sure of is Penrith are going to put a cricket score on us wonder what the new sponsor thinks after signing the biggest deal ever with the club embarrassing for nick to say the least

[Eggspert]

Current Panthers team is not the Broncos of last week.
If we go out and bash em, smash em, trash em, including Martin and Cleary, (legally of course), we could keep the score at a reasonable level.
Something like R 12 P 26.
Seemingly teacher's pet team Panthers will likely get their usual truckload of penalties and six agains particularly in the first half.

Scored their first try in the 2024 GF on the 10th tackle.

Teddy is wasting his time talking to the refs, instead he should stay away from them, concentrate on bash/smash/trash instead.

The Panthers team on paper certainly looks weaker than in previous years.

But they have a coach who's got them to 5 GF in a row, winning 4 which is a crazy feat. He has always got them primed & ready to go in every match the last 5yrs.

Meanwhile Robbo is the opposite to all that & has been on the slide... Our defence is woeful with some ridiculously soft tries being scored for a while now.

Sure the Panthers might not get 50+ but certainly they will be in the 30's or 40's....they are a very good chance to keep us to "0"

I'm starting to think that Robbo bailed when the 6 again was introduced and that the club has opted for a Hologram of Robbo until Ivan Cleary becomes available.

There has been numerous clues along the way but the one that's given it away is our current roster.

This roster situation is perplexing...then throw in some injuries & suspensions & you have the perfect Storm (not the Bellamy type)

10 NRL squad players out and at least 6 or 7 would be in the 17 this week if available- Not sure how other teams would cope with such an injury toll -The Roosters had to obtain permission to play 3 players on the interchange who are not in the Top 30 squad - Zack Dockar-Clay / Makahesi Makatoa / Taylor Losalu

1. Xavier Va'a
2. De La Salle Va'a
3. Egan Butcher
4. Nat Butcher
5. Victor Radley
6. Sam Walker
7. Brandon Smith
8. Spencer Leniu
9. Fetalaiga Pauga
10. Beniah Ioelu

We will always back them win lose or draw unlike the rock solid as liquid water brigade

You mistake back them with cold hard reality.

Pretty sure no Roosters fans want the score that's going to happen but we all know it will.

It's like hoping the Titanic won't sink but after seeing the hole reality sets in.

How about asking more questions about the clubs retention policy & current style of play than having a go at reasonable questions from the fans.

This theory makes alot of sense when you think about it.

Biggest clue is the tape recorder at press conferences that repeats "Roosters Way" "Effort Areas" "I enjoyed certain aspects of our performance"

That's very funny.

[roosterchook]

Penrith know that they’ll win easily but what worries me is they’ll use the match to fix up their for and against and who better than us?

[Bansai Pipeline]

Our rag tag team of misfits might just pull this off.

If the Mighty Ducks could do it, why can't we?

Rooster6 would be with me on this.

That's pretty good.

Robbo doesn't exist.

Must have one set up for the pre-match media aswell with "It's Time to Play" and "We're ready to go".

We have prepared well , 3 more years would have been nice but unfortunately we only get a week.

[Lydon]

Like Robbo said last week when referring to our poor trial form defensively ,”Our defence will be better tonight against the Broncos” with a steely look in his eyes..

Have faith people
