Yes they are a very good team. Not much finals experience though. A very good defence.
Expected a defeat but not by that many.
You can't give them as much ball as we did though and expect to get a result.

We will awake this glorious day with a breath knowing there’s more to life and many more waking moments to be blessed and be thankful for…so in conclusion..fcuk Penrith panties 
We pretty much fucked it from the start.offsude on the first kick chase is what webby singled out.
Weather that's enthusiasm or whatever it's a lesson he will drill.
Whenever we dud anything good we would be penalised etc.
Great set, good kick , great kick chase - tough crusher penalty....
Little things.

His intention went from 100% to 20% when he rested SJ lol, Walker at 6 and doing half the kicking?
He had an eye on week 2, if they pull off an upset then great, but seriously, his selection wasn’t helping his intent, if it’s a do or die, do you think he would have scratched SJ?That’s why I am not upset about the result, it was done on Thursday

I'm not sure rested is the right terminology
Soft tissue injury. No gurantee he gets through the first 5 minutes.
The luxury of a non-sudden death allowed them to be cautious.
I genuinely fear it is worse than what is being mentioned, I'm certain he plays if he is even 90%
The whole situation has just come off as weird from the top down.
lol blaming the coach is laughable.
only thing I’ve ever second guessed webby about is ford over Curran. But he’s got them up and going so what do I know, could be an attitude thing.
That game was just frustrating because warriors never got a chance to play like we know they can. We definitely won in spells during that game , and we weren’t too bad close to the line. Defense was immense for large periods too. (Although disappointing when some players gave up towards the end)
Don’t get me started on the to’o try or the ruck. Every top tier team is bending the officials their way, we need to be able to counteract that. This is what guys like Reynolds, Cameron smith, Munster are really good at.
Anyway, fk Penrith…

Laughable?
They pick the team and run the subs.
Both of which left a lot to be desired.
This match does not define an amazing season that is not over yet. I expect us to win next week and head to suncorp with a GF on the line, that in itself is mind blowing!
But to me it was a good reminder this week we have a rookie coach too. I have great faith they will internally acknowledge their mistakes from this game.
Situation is not that extreme
There were lots more reasons we were cellar dwellers than who was at halfback.
So do you think we would’ve made the 8 this year if we didn’t have a decent halfback?
That's a seperate debate entirely
There is a difference between missing the 8 and being cellar dwellars.
Rubbing it in a bit

Penriths ruck control is top class. I haven’t looked at the stats but I imagine their PTB speed outshone ours by a big margin.
Our 5th tackle option went to Walker when we were deep in our half far too many times - not sure if Walker was over calling or TMM wasn’t?
Our attacking line often seemed disorganised in the middle and edges as well I thought.
Lots of work ons and growth from to come from this game - is exactly the reason I wanted Penrith first up; I think we learn a lot more from them as opposition than we could have from the ponies.
On to next week!
edit: just checked the stats and our average PTB was marginally faster, must have been the beers
