Can't believe that Canberra got fined 10k because their trainer got caught up in the sideline scuffle when it was all started by Stephen Crichton and he gets some measly fine. https://coupler-foxsports-com-au.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/coupler.foxsports.com.au/api/v1/article/amp/nrl/nrl-premiership/nrl-2021-canberra-raiders-fined-10000-over-scuffle-raiders-vs-panthers-round-5-don-furner-stephen-crichton/news-story/bcd76ac7d58fa06145afdf7f86ab294c?amp_gsa=1&amp_js_v=a6&usqp=mq331AQFKAGwASA%3D#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=16184357069696&csi=0&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com
 
Would love nothing better than to see Penrith, it's arrogant players and it's poxy coach get beaten on GF night again. Would shut their mouths good and proper (although strangely it didn't after last year's GF). Nothing worse than an arrogant, showboating winner IMO.
They play entertaining footy but are cultivating a very unlikeable brand of person at that club.
They haven't played a good team away from home yet this season, interesting to see how they perform away from their own cesspit when a bit of pressure comes to bear.
 
As annoying as he can be on TV it's hard to imagine Gould being happy with that sort of behavior. With him gone it looks like there's nobody to control some of the excesses.
 
That Trainer was completely out of line and there needed to be a penalty. He is VERY lucky JFH didnt dish out an on the spot fine of his own.

He is VERY lucky Capewell didn't dish something out as well👀
 
Good on Furner for making those comments, and as far as the penalties that were dished out, they were the wrong way around and Penrith should also be docked competition points and a few weeks off for that grub Crichton for starting the whole thing.
 
Cleary has that bit of arrogance, self- righteousness, smugness in him. Wouldn't be surprised if it rubbed off on his team.

A loss might actually be good for them

Prefer another scandal

100%

Watching it live i was really surprised that a bigger deal wasn't made about the trainer putting his hands on the players. Crazy scenes.

As for the team being cocky, good on them. Young blokes who are clicking and absolutely killing it. From memory Crocker was a bit pushy after have a score tried on him and Penrith players reacted. No biggie.

That's what I saw too. Seems a mountain out of molehill. As for Penrith, they're now leaps and bounds ahead as my most disliked team. Parra and Souths rank two and three.

There’s cocky and then there are some of the things those guys do. Seriously it was last season, but the way Luai deliberately trod on the back of Nikorimas head was as grubby as it gets. Now I don’t have a problem if somebody is going to be a grub, but at least have the balls to own it instead of all this crap of pretending it’s just youth and confidence etc.
 
Classless feral poor sportsmen grubs.... Many in RL are seeing them for what they truly are.

It will bite them... It always does
 
I enjoy watching Penrith play. Cleary and especially Luai are great to watch. Liam Martin runs like a runaway truck and hits like one. Yeo is just everywhere. There is a lot to admire about them.

I know this won't go down well but IC is smooth and you can see why his players respond to him, as did ours. It is just a pity he is not with us now.

I like watching Penrith but that crap last week was disgraceful. Reminded me of that Kenny Edwards wanker.

Grabbed and pulled him by the shoulder, then went around the other side of the fight to interfere again.

No place touching any of them. Lucky he didnt get belted

Probably should have been suspended. Didn't Stanley the Steeler get a suspension for getting involved in a fight?
 
Two aggressive teams in what was a great match. The Raiders and Stuart don't mind dishing it out. It is good another team not only gave it back physically but on the scoreboard.
