In essence, Penrith are bleating about losing the juniors they developed and not being rewarded/ compensated for their developing them.
I can understand not wanting to lose the players but this happens at every club in the NRL - we know that all to well. Wests supporters from pre-merger days would well and truly know what being plundered means all too well - they were never able to get anything done about what happened to them, nor has any other club. Penrith didn’t give a second thought to what would happen to us when they head-hunted Cleary and really ruined our next few years.
Surely, Penrith have been rewarded by the success of their club this year and will be in future years to come? That’s what putting a good roster means in the salary cap world (Roosters, Souths, Broncos and the Storm excepted) - you go up and you go down in strength (unless you are us
).
If the NRL did change the rules re junior development I woudn’t have a problem but until that day suck it up Panthers.

What sooks. They can’t expect to have a grand final team and also hoard a bunch of talented reserve graders as well. Players are always going to choose to leave they need to get over it.
-
I’ll expect they’re happy to give cowboys compensation for Kikau too?
-
Poor little Pamfers - feel so sorry for you…NOT!
-
I’m crying for them
-
No one gave a crap when we lost Tedesco, Moses, Woods, JAC and Papenhuysen, the media just blamed the club for poor management, now it is another team they listen, give me a break.
As an old Wests fan this has happened for well over 40 years, and we never got a break from the NRL or NSWRL at the time -
Hypocrites! Hopefully nothing is done to appease the poor penny panfers, double standards would be on full display if so

Ivan blowing kisses saying goodbye to his players
Seems like these guys want out -
Ivan has obviously lost the dressing room.

Many believe the Mt Druitt players will stick together, get one you have both. Crichton and Leniu.

#penriff in crisis
Suck 'em -
They can always just stop developing players if they don’t like it, nobody is forcing them to develop players

Big-Chin looks like a clown the ways he has been conducting himself lately. A handshake agreement with Stephen Crichton? Come on mate, it’s 2020. If you don’t get it in writing, don’t expect anything.

Poor Ivan, he’s losing good players and signing benchies from WT lol He needs to have meeting with his manager to see who else he has? Will that grin ever leave Pascoe’s face?

Pretty ironic from Ivan wanting some to stand by their word
