Not sure how the green men managed to hold on there.

Not a great way to end the first half. Hope DWZ's injury isn't too bad.

Really disappointing performance, this.

JC Metcalf in trouble too

 

[Coronis]

Api's reaction to that last try spoke volumes. He's not a happy camper.

Luai should take Koroisau back with him to the Panthers.

 

[Burgey]

Gee. Great start Kelma. Can’t fall on the ball for a try then becomes a speed jump at the other end for a 12 point turnaround

 

[Shady Slim]

panther going to be ensconced in the eight after all is said and done this round

Have to say Parra is well on the improve. Decent win without the starting halves, and they're playing footy which is good to watch.

Iongi is going to be a very special player imo. Has pace and vision with it. Two things you can't coach.

Can't say I'm as sold on the development of the forwards as some I have seen, particularly the young backrowers coming through, their efforts in defence are piss poor at best sometimes.

Smith, Williams and particularly Iongi though are real positives coming out of this season, Iongi has to be building a pretty nice case for rookie of the year if he continues to develop like he has the past few weeks.

Yeah he's been exceptional. I don't disagree with some of the young blokes. I thought Guymer would kick on this year more than he has. His "effort" last night for the Titans try where he just didn't trail across and left a yawning gap then threw his arms up in the air was bloody terrible. The sort of thing you'd think a coach would really notice, which might explain why he's spent a lot of time in reserves this year. It was a real contrast with Russell's big chase of Pereira when the intercept try was scored. That chase kept him wide and directly saved two points, which looked like being important for a lot of the game. The sort of thing a coach would love.
