Round 8 Discussion

Its not that. They just have a lot of players i just cant stand. So many who need a good punch in the mouth.
It's the arrogance of youth @Wolfie so maybe it's more resentment than dislike?
 
I actually dont mind a bit of arrogance tbh. I just think they go a bit beyond it at times. Just cant put my finger on it.
Penrith was where I first settled when I came to Australia but as my wife was a Qld'r and the Broncs had just started I thought new country - new team - I'll go for the Broncs. Penrith were my second side and I was there for the 1990 GF loss and the 1991 win. They have been my second team ever since. But like you I'm totally off them. It's the niggle and the subtle unsporting gestures that irk me. Their 5/8 changing direction to stomp on KniK's head last year was the beginning for me.
 
I'm going to take a stab at this for you @Wolfie.

It's because they're NSW through and through. A talented group of individuals who are capable of playing a quality brand of footy but boy don't they know it. For all the bluster they really haven't always delivered in the key moments and when things go against them their true nature comes out.

Then to really seal the deal, Gus is their biggest cheerleader and he can be terribly obnoxious.

Gus could be a part of it, lol
 
That's terribly lazy from Elliot. Barely into the opening stanza and he turns his back from marker. Mahoney spots it right away, breaks free and sets up Gutho for an easy try.
 
What a dumb challenge from the dogs on Gutho.
 
I'll take the Panthers arrogance over Roosters and Storm every second of a billion years.
 
Adam Reynolds is out for 4-6 weeks with an injured thumb
There isnt a part of his body left that has not been broken at some point and we are now down to his last few fingers.

Halve our offer i reckon.
 
Doggies struggling badly here. They cant get back the 10
 
Eels starting to go off the boil here after a hot start. I like the way they're using their edge forwards, it just gives them so many options in attack and makes it easier to get the ball to their strike weapons on the edge.

Canterbury just being outclassed in all facets at the moment.
