A long way to go in the season. But it would be nuts to win four premierships and then get the wooden spoon.

Absolutely.

Penrith are bad, but they ain't spoon bad.

Surely.

When they pull the tries back now it does seem like they have already looked at it and are quite sure.

It gets deflating when it's your team. Good when it's the opposition though.

Personally I think its deflating as a spectacle of the game when they get pedantic on the smallest detail… they are selling a product end of the day

Here we go again

Ruining the game

knights firmly holding the spoon IMHO panthers too good to stay down for the whole season

Touch footy within a couple of years. These moderate force tackles are a joke

Sin bin number 15 this round lol. Mental

 

[Ever Hopeful]

I thought they were going to crack down on milking? Simkins stayed down to milk after a great run instead of playing on.

The NRL made lots of noise and a rule change in regard to that in the off season.

Damn, up and down game hard luck Penriff.

 

[snake77]

If there is a lot of sin bins next week. Buzz Rothfield is going to be complaining how they ruined Magic Round.

He still brings up the one from a few years ago.

 

[Beastmode]

I wonder if they’ll fire up the “sack Ivan” thread at Penrith

Would he take an assistant role to Webby

 

[sup42]

Last year Penrith would have got away with that professional foul.

Wow what a Try.

 

[Rizzah]

1 try, 1 try assist, 3 offloads and 9 tackle breaks for Olakau'atu. Beast of a game.

 

[3rdstriker]

Garrick kicking @ 80%

 

[sup42]

Fark me that is a send off, total hypocrisy. Can't be seen to have eleven out there.

 

[Ever Hopeful]

Yeo didn't exactly miss Turbo there.

 

[sup42]

You can see cynical teams putting on high shots once they have a man in the bin.....

Boom! Panthers for the spoon.
