In a H2H matchup at their peaks how would the Panthers fair against these great teams?

[Freakzilla]

Who wins these matches if they faced each other at their peaks?

01. Panthers vs Raiders 1994
02. Panthers vs Bulldogs 1995
03. Panthers vs Broncos 1998
04. Panthers vs Knights 2001
05. Panthers vs Bulldogs 2004
06. Panthers vs Storm 2007
07. Panthers vs Sea Eagles 2008
08. Panthers vs Storm 2009
09. Panthers vs Storm 2017
10. Panthers vs Roosters 2018

We already saw these Panthers lose to the 2020 Storm & in my opinion that was the worst team to win the title under the Bellamy era.

 

[Freakzilla]

I think that the only teams that they beat are the 1995 Bulldogs & 2008 Sea Eagles.

 

[Bad Billy]

tough question.
01. Panthers vs Raiders 1994 = Raiders
02. Panthers vs Bulldogs 1995 = Panthers
03. Panthers vs Broncos 1998 = Broncos
04. Panthers vs Knights 2001 = Panthers
05. Panthers vs Bulldogs 2004 = Bulldogs
06. Panthers vs Storm 2007 = Storm
07. Panthers vs Sea Eagles 2008 = Manly
08. Panthers vs Storm 2009 = Storm
09. Panthers vs Storm 2017 = Panthers
10. Panthers vs Roosters 2018 = Panthers

 

[GoTheDoggies]

The answer is Panther.

The more Panther you sign the better your team will get.

Panther would beat all of those teams.

You don't think that the 2017 Storm team is way better than the 2020 team that beat the Panthers in the GF?

 

[B-Train]

Let's get in the Delorean and find out.. It's impossible to compare eras to 20-30 years ago with so many rule changes and different tactics

 

[Shanked]

are you just trying to find ways to discredit them?

 

[Bad Billy]

Yea, but I think the current panthers are better than the 2020 panthers.

 

[Bulldog1966]

Yea, but I think the current panthers are better than the 2020 panthers.

Heaps better.

 

[Freakzilla]

Yea, but I think the current panthers are better than the 2020 panthers.

That’s arguable, they’ve lost a lot of good players since 2020. The 2020 Storm team didn’t have Slater or Cronk though. I don’t think this Panthers team beats any Smith-Cronk-Slater title winning team.

 

[DogsOfWar1704]

In todays game panthers win all of them

 

[Cappuccino]

Panther wins every game

 

[w00t]

Probably shouldn't include the Storm of 2007/09 given their team was unfairly built

I think the 2020 panthers weren’t anywhere near their best. Their current team pumps the 2020 storm by lots.
Obviously, vs the 2017 Storm it’s a close game, but I reckon the panthers still get them.
Their senior players have matured brilliantly and rarely play poorly. Especially in big games.

So was our ‘04 team.
gun sides, are gun sides.

 

[Bad Billy]

That’s arguable

The best questions always are.

 

[S.B.W_Jnr]

Slater, Cronk and Smith > Edwards, Cleary and Kenny.

 

[Freakzilla]

Slater, Cronk and Smith > Edwards, Cleary and Kenny.

And it’s not even close. Storm spine is the best ever.

 

[ILiveForDib]

Prime storm would give them a game

 

[soc123_au]

If you are including 04 Dogs and the Naughties Storm sides then it's only fair we get a best of Panthers 21-23.

In saying that 04 Dogs were pretty much the 03 Dogs and they couldn't get it done against us either.

The illegal Storm side had a gun spine, but I reckon we have a better pack.
