Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Panthers

[The Brain]

We’ll have to do it without JWH next week. He’s bound to cop a suspension. Maybe Collins starting won’t be a bad thing.

Fine only wont miss a game

[Johnny Brass]

That easy goal flanagan missed was crucial.
zJake Friend is crucial.
At least Freddy stuck up for us when Chrighton was disallowed..he scored

Yep I commented on that at the time

[Maxy Walker]

Lol Robbo some subtle bagging of the ref there

[Joel123e]

On the plus side, we're equal highest scoring team against Panthers this year

cleary missed an even easier one.

[MCMLXVI]

observations ....

Bondi wall needs a bit of rebuilding.

Kyle was ok tonight.

we miss rads a lot.

The wall is nowhere near as strong as it should have been, especially on our woeful right edge defence. Kyle is the definition of crap. The guy is not a first grader, nor a creative player. He does though win second place, after Cleary, as the ugliest head to have ever been called a halfback. Indeed, we have missed Radley enormously this year, but his return is not so far away.

Haha yep I caught that.

Mentioning how we weren't going to get anything.

Penrith completed 36/38 and stood offside all night and still only won by 1 at home.

If, and it's a big if, we get another crack at them in the GF then we'll get them imo.

[milanja]

...and the fact Bmoz and manu saw no ball falls on Flopaflagan. They have to fix that up

Manu must be the only player who doesn’t go looking for the ball, very disappointing from the “best” Center in the game.

[King Salvo]

This was a crucial result. We win this we probably get the 3peat. Robbo knows this and I've never seen such passion from him in the box.

Its going to take a supreme effort now.

Panthers in the box seat.

I think there was enough tonight to say the team that come through on that side to play them would have noted weaknesses in the Panthers game they can exploit which hasn't been tested most of this season-

[QWERTY]

Luai is a dirty grub

One of the reasons why I don’t want that team winning the gf

[Johnny Brass]

Robbo should blow up ... uncle Nick can take a hit to the wallet

[Bmw06i]

Lol Robbo some subtle bagging of the ref there

The comment when he said they will be against everything (quietly bagging the ref)

[The Skeez]

All you blokes are on the weed.

Past your bedtime bubby

[QWERTY]

Obviously a bit deflated but we showed some true character to get back into the contest. I reckon if we had friend we win the game, but what’s done is done. Next game we verse the raiders at home. I have a lot more confidence regarding that game, but the prelim against probably the storm is the one where we are gonna need a miracle

[Mad_Rabid_Rooster]

The fox commentators were more like the Panthers cheer squad tonight. You'd think they had beat us by hundreds the way they carried on.

You are not wrong. I wrote in the other thread that I turned them off at the 25 minute mark as I couldn't stand it any longer. Ennis and Voss were bloody disgraceful - and nearly as bad as last week.
