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

Would he take an assistant role to Webby

He is a pretty average coach without the Roster.

I would rather have our bloke to be honest.

Panthers looking like Ivans Tigers stint now.

Panther's fans.

Destined for the

I’m starting to believe….

I'm a bit confused on how you could not give that even a penalty. IDK how a player can hold into a ball after getting a knee to the temple.

 

[tyrael]

They really missing JFH

 

[The Warrior Waka]

Officiating is at a all time low.

 

[Christchurch_Warrior]

Should be a penalty against Jenkins there

 

[Tookey 2.0]

The absolute fear and joy Manly fans must have with Tommy Turbo. One of the best runners of the ball of the last 20 years but looks hurt almost every game.

 

[Worried2Death]

I thought that was a monkey.

That'll teach me for getting on the beers, after a two year break.

Quitting drinking's easy, I've done it hundreds of times

Did Ivan look at the players leaving Penrith over the seasons and spend too much time thinking "She'll be right!"?

Or was what made Ivan actually the triumvirate of Ivan/Andrew/Cameron and the pathways covered two seasons of them being gone but if anything else happened....

Outside of fucking up and picking may over critta. I'm not to sure what ivan could of done outside of the storm double book special when it comes to keeping there players.

Well, well, well.

The riff really do be paying the premiership piper.

Winning the premiership once is difficult. Consecutively four times is an achievement anyone would be proud of. To have the wheels wobble and fall off is inevitable.

They still have a good spine. But Mcleans are not the answer, short 1-2 props and Yeo is less effective without those props. Papalii is a 13 so getting less impact.

I don't think they are Ivan tigers territory but it's not great. Last week showed they still have potential.

Ivan all day!!! 4 trophies in a row He's royalty in terms of the Warrior's the door would always be open.

The McLean's are not spine players bro? Is that what you mean? - Or as players in general? If so - Casey is only 19. He definitely will be the answer one day. He still has his training wheels on

Be interesting to see if they make the top eight. And next season looms....interesting times for Ivan.

Ivan and Nathan to come over here at the end of their contract on 2027 to have an all Cleary halves combo for 2028-2030 you reckon?

Man the pressures of being a coach eh,
Perfectionism at its best even if he wins or loses two or three spoons in a row he's still an amazing modern day coach.
