General NRL 2018 Round 10 - General Discussion

[leaguejunkie]

Newcastle are average at best. I'd like to see them play without Ponga....

You can guarantee that they would be sitting on the bottom of the ladder without Ponga.

Newcastle would stink without the Pong

Panthers lead 21 to 12

 

[Sup42]

Ponga's ball playing is next level. Best ball playing fb in the comp atm.

He has the whole package, his work rate is massive, his step is magic, his defence is primo, the short kicks.

 

[mt.wellington]

Ponga looks better than Roger Tuivasa-Sheck....no criticism of Roger Tuivasa-Sheck.

Such an unbelievable talent. He's Roger Tuivasa-Sheck body with Thurstons mind...

Penrith come to life at the end. There was a big period of the game where they didn't finish a set.

Still have Cleary to come back as well which will help a lot.

 

[snake77]

Frawley goes through and at first glance I thought it was Woods. Damn beards.

Haha I made that exact same mistake.

Don't really care about the eels or doggies, but man this is a good game.

 

[Swanley]

I think his defence is OK. i guess once he puts weight on he'll be better.

 

[Makasene]

Foran having an absolute shocker

 

[Aman]

Has any other star fallen as far as Kieran Foran has this year?

 

[Ranger]

That won't be going on Gutherson's highlights reel

 

[AlexM]

Both these teams are mud.

 

[JaggedJ]

Foran having an absolute shocker

Game or season? Can't tell the difference anymore.

 

[leaguejunkie]

Somewhat entertaining first half. Total derp-fest second half. Wtf was "King Gutho" thinking?

 

[bruce]

Foran is a star? I guess he is on star money, some clubs can't recruit for shite.

You can guarantee that they would be sitting on the bottom of the ladder without Ponga.

They lost Pearce too, just imagine the Warriors with one class half.

Penrith come to life at the end.

...and into second on the ladder. What chance us putting 30 points on the Chooks today to get back to second?

With half our spine out and the weather looking undesirable, chances are it turns into a set for set slug out. If thats the way it goes, Cronk vs Lino's kicking game worries me. Forwards are really gonna have to dominate for us, and Green will have to put his long kicking boots on.

We don't need to put on 30 as a win will get us back to two competition points ahead.

So it will

 

[Centurion]

So it will

Precisely but a big win of 20+ would still be nice and get our points balance looking better.

 

[brightman]

So it will

Haven't the Panthers had a be already?
