But overturned! Jarome Luai again involved in a disallowed try.

Crazy short dropout from Souths up 12-0, Kikau scores but its the 3rd disallowed try of the night for the Panthers!

 

[ashley bach]

Panthers still slight favourites even though they're down 12 nothing, say what?

 

[ashley bach]

That's just a freak try from Apisai, game of inches as he just manages to slide across.

 

[Son Of Coco]

That's got to break Rabbitoh hearts!

 

[ashley bach]

NOOOO WAY! To'o scores with 5 seconds remaining on the clock with an intercept.

Broken mine too, can't help but feel that's a total game changer, psychologically damaging for the bunnies.

That was embarrassing from the bunnies at the end of the half. Bowling pins

@Burgey sorry mate, think the winner of this game wins the grand final next week, it's going to be the Panthers for you now I think.

A tight game has very quickly turned into jokers wild in the twinkling of an eye, anything could happen now, 3 tries in 8 mins for Penrith.

They only had to make one tackle, and they had plenty of chances to do that, back breaking. lol commentator referenced Lomu esque.

Edwards having a whale of a game

 

[duffer]

Panthers got a helluva flex.

 

[duffer]

Dirty af play that

 

[Son Of Coco]

When the tackle is so high you almost miss. Hit him on the forehead. Atrocious effort.

 

[Son Of Coco]

Don't think it would be wise of Walker to take on Dylan Edwards either.

 

[James]

First game of league I've watched all year and must say I'm jealous of the open rugby with so few stoppages compared to union.

 

[ashley bach]

That was a disgusting piece of work there from Taane Milne, what was the guy thinking? Blocker says he'll be in for a long holiday.

No injuries tonight for the Panthers means it's going to take a mountain to stop them next week.
Since round 1 when they beat Manly 28-6 with an almost flawless display, it's been blatantly obvious that they would follow the last 2 years trend.
3 grand finals in a row, a very rare achievement in NRL these days, Ivan Cleary has done wonders, seems to have a very good mind for the game,
no better example was resting nearly the whole team for round 25.

I think most teams who are multiple games clear in no.1 position would rest their entire 1st 13. There's no advantage to playing them.
