Why im confident about the penrith game..

[likeadoggy]

it's pretty simple in my mind. If Reynolds plays better than a park footy player we'll win.

didnt you make a thread similar to this about us being MP when were tearing up the comp? what transpired was a slippery slope and consequent struggle to make the 8.

i am not a superstitious man, but i don't like this. Mods, and I am being dead serious, can we delete this thread? this bloke is a reverse indicator and has basically signalled our downfall.

I'm confident about the Penrith game as both times they beat us this year the refereeing arguably decided the outcome and the second time was during the post Origin flat period we had.

Will be tough as Panthers play for 80 mins but the week off could stall their momentum.

Haha!

I feel the same. It's a funny feeling... I just expected Manly to hit back and to eat into the lead. We had 7 line breaks in the first half and could not capitalise on most. It just goes to show how badly we can struggle without a renowned finisher in the team. I hope the Panthers game turns into a real slog as we will lose if its as open as last nights game.

This is what happens when an australian nsw representative jmoz gets the ball twice a gamw. Its a fukn joke no.matter how injured he is

segyaro is going to blow us off the park.........we struggled to contain symonds last night..we tended to sit back and wait for them in defence last night....segyaro will kill us if we do this against penrith

Thought the refs didnt go too bad last night - just hope we dont get Shane Hayne .

On the Pansters , our game plan has been a bit too basic for my liking . I just hope it changes sometime soon . A clever coach ( with a fresh team ) could pick plenty of holes in us . Their little men worry me . But if we can keep the intensity up - who knows

Personally I think the game will be won in the middle of the field. We have a far superior forward pack which will lay the platform for us to stroll through to the GF.

we had a far superior pack against manly but we just scraped home....our kicking game needs be spot on.......and our halves need to take control.....

That may be true, however with Docker returning and Plum picking people off... we won't be getting through easy.

Obviously you are a superstitious man. But if you look at the Panthers forum theres a lot of similar threads to this so they are very very confident of beating us.

Feels very similar to the lead up to the Melbourne game though at the moment.

It does nervous times !!

Any one who believes in superstitions as weird as "jynxs" clearly need god in their life or something, cause thats just fair tale stuff

 

[Sauce Head]

If we complete and get good kicks away like last night then we are a good chance.
What I did not like was in the 20-40th minute we had more than enough chances to our the game to bed but we started to be careless in their 20m. Hopefully that kind of behaviour gets a mention at training this week.

 

[CB1935]

Not confident at all.

Our second halves have been absolutely pathetic. If a team matches us in the first 20mins then its game over for us

This is not a criticism of Perrett but if him and Stewart swap jerseys we would of scored 3 more tries.

 

[magdog]

Week 1 final vs Storm. We scored 5 tries. That is all.

Erm, we scored 2 tries off intercepts....so technically our attack produced 3 tries....our defence 2 v Storm.

Think the point people are making is that our attack needs to be more efficient.
To not score a try for 62 mins in a match is not good enough.
To aim to defend a lead with the current "lucky dip" rules/ refereeing system for an extended period of time is asking for trouble.

 

[finchie]

We should of scored 6 tries in the first half.
we made 4 line breaks that led to nothing. Bloody reynolds trying to milk a penalty instead of just playing the ball and sending it to jmoz or lafai early with room to move.

 

[ouwet]

People on here keep saying we are not good enough!! We cannot score points... We have no finishers, no attack, questionable D! News Flash, we are in the Prelim Finals and we ARE NOT MAKING UP THE NUMBERS!! It's the way we play, we are never going to blow a team by 30 or 40 especially in the finals, but we will grind, force errors on them, attack with our defence, we are the Dogs of War... We can and will beat anyone as long as the attitude and confidence is there and it's there in the bucket load!!!

 

[Malla]

Penrith is a tough match up to ours because we play similar games. Both are powerful through the middle. Soward has been playing good footy on the back of his forward pack so for us, it's going to be up to our forwards. We gotta get in there and complete our sets and defend strong and we should be there in the end.

I would have T-Rex and Tank running at Will Smith all day as he has shown in the last few weeks he is a poor one on one defender.
