LIVE GAME Finals week III

[bptiger 0]

Lol...we all know klein will get it...as sure as death and taxes

I thought he was on side when they showed the replay , just the ref keeping the broncos in the game

I thought the momentum changed when Ezra didn’t get penalised for tackling the kicker (the opposite decision to the Luai decision this year). That’s the issue in the NRL, different application of the rules week to week.

PS Plus forward passes

Or did you mean "queue"?

He's an ordinary man manager - but excellent high performance coach!

Works with stacked teams - not so much elsewhere...

I was barracking for the sacked former-coach ahead of the other prick!

Whichever team loses next weeks grand final will be on suicide watch

Melbourne two in a row or Brisbane losing their last 3 grand final appearances

Should be a beauty. At half time Brisbane looked absolutely shot in that prelim

 

[BlackWhiteGold]

Hate the Broncos with a passion & have no respect for Stefano after his attitude last year. Oh well NZ Warriors v Burleigh Bears will be worth the $60 ticket.

Panthers , 2 options to get the extra 2 points in the game and didn’t take it up , big mistake .
Ezra not penalised for Cleary hit on the kick , again changed the momentum ,
Good game overall , Melbourne for me next week as this game would have taken the sting out of Brisbane , they went hard all game

Anything but the gf for me. Last time was 2004. Bumnuts vs dogs.

I didn't catch the game but did Nathan Cleary cry again?

 

[Flippedy]

I feel sad actually that Penrith just couldn’t put them away. One more try in those multiple sets of 6 on the Broncos line was all they needed, but they had nothing. Then they were just too tired to defend in the last 20. It was frustrating to watch, tbh. Kudos to the Broncos though, they sure know how to come back from looking all but beaten.

 

[Wezt]

Penrith lost because other then Cleary the spine were passengers.

Kenny just shovels the ball

Talagi is useless

Edwards has zero attacking prowess

Talagi will learn and get better but Penrith need to do better at fullback or hooker

 

[Flippedy]

Except a certain winger from the Tigers.

Remind me who that was?

 

[orange&black]

I don’t expect Madge has changed his coaching style too much in these past years, so the results he has achieved since leaving us say more about our group of players and our club than they do about his coaching.
So you can be an International team winning coach, a SOO winning coach, and an NRL grand finalist coach but unless you have the right squad of players you can suck for seasons at a club with a poor track record.

Penrith were very hard to beat this year and will be even harder to beat next year..

Ivan's reign of terror is finally over. One for the good guys.

Edwards and Yeo are starting to hit regression age

I think 2026 will be the last year of their window and they will go into a mini rebuild in 2027

Boo Hiss , us Sydney siders have nothing to cheer for in the main game next week

Happy for Madge, and Reyno.

Nothing wrong with the Mam tackle IMO - really glad they didn't penalise that because they love to ping that one. Round the hip, great pressure.

Martin not being binned for running in was weird. Nathan with a closed fist to the chin of Mam too.

it was noticeable tonight that Penrith were following with their head or a shoulder in tackles consistently

The end of a huge dynasty from Penrith
this wouldve been the first time they had the try and do it the long way from 7th

Just the same, I think Broncos will find the Storm easier than Panthers. That was a brutal game.

im not fan of Melbourne but it would be good to see Brisbane crap the bed again in a gf
