NRL Match Thread 2016 Round 16

[Graham]

40 shades of green.

The mind boggles.

Talking of green the pitch is just about up to my demanding standards in this game

[Irish Saint]

Have gone for the Panthers in this one though after watching item on Maguire/Rabbitohs on footy show last night was gonna change selection but didn't.

[Graham]

They've still to get into this game. they look somewhat flat footed.

[Graham]

Most of us have gone for Panthers in this one. From memory three have gone for Souths

On cue Panther try!!!

Overlap pass from Moylan

[Graham]

By the way DWZ scored it

Johnny Cash 40 shades of green for when there is a lull in the game.

[Graham]

Nathan Cleary converts 6-6

Breath a bit easier I St

[Graham]

Joe Burgess makes a good catch under a high ball that was competed for.

[Farmduck]

Different commentary here, none of that grasshopper talk here, Grasshopper.

Surprising because I think Ray Warren played for the Quirindi Grasshoppers.

[Graham]

Ah yes, the moorland and the meadows and their forty shades of green.......

[Graham]

Peachey collided heavily with the hard boarding on the fence. Ouch!

[Graham]

Surprising because I think Ray Warren played for the Quirindi Grasshoppers.

The stuff you know, amazing!

[Graham]

They keep nipping away for adverts while we get continuous coverage of the game, though usually nothing is said by commentators

[Graham]

Oh by the way it's 6-8 to Souths after a p goal

[Graham]

Decent crowd on what is called a cold night

[Irish Saint]

The stuff you know, amazing!

 

Farmduck as I have said you should be writing a book or books

[Graham]

Panther self destructing atm

[Graham]

Mansour touchdown

Ref didn't use Bunker Boy

Try

Commentators wrong shock horror!

[Graham]

10-8 Panthers

[Graham]

Cleary from touchline just misses the conversion.                                                                                                                          

[Graham]

Almost half time.

Game gone scrappy.

[Graham]

Half time:

Penrith 10 - 8 South Sydney

 

Not much between these two sides as the score suggests.

[Farmduck]

They keep nipping away for adverts while we get continuous coverage of the game, though usually nothing is said by commentators

The best change in 2016 - we now get all games live on Foxtel with Fox commentators and no ad breaks during play.

[Farmduck]

Farmduck as I have said you should be writing a book or books

I don't have the attention span. I once wrote a half-page article about immigration for one of the local Chinese newspapers and that's about my limit. When I was at Law School I'd have to be sedated after a 2-page essay.

[Graham]

Occasionally, when they go to adverts you'll hear the commentators talking ... lining up what's next or just a snippet of their own thoughts.
