NRL 2022 - MATCH THREAD - Finals Week 3

[Futtocks]

Milne tried to turn him into a Pez dispenser!

[Spotty Herbert]

That's Milne out of the Fiji squad for the world cup and Kikau could be missing a couple for them as well.

bad decision that as ball goes backwards of his hands then hits his heel.

I guess Teddy, Turbo, Latrell and Papenhuysen would all be in front of him. Then there's Edwards, Ponga  and Gutho?

Lucky for the selectors, as long as Teddy stays healthy, it'll be years before they're forced to decide the pecking order.

[Farmduck]

I think I would have paid that Crichton "try"

[Farmduck]

Cleary ices the cake.

[Graham]

Cleary finishes the game off with a solo try.

So it’s 30-12 ktc

32-12 Panthers.

FULL TIME

PENRITH PANTHERS 32 - 12 SOUTH SYDNEY RABBITOHS 

[Graham]

Panthers then into their third straight Grand Final… as the caption says.

FT:  Panthers  32   Souths  12

[DavidM]

The Panthers juggernaut rumbles on . Souths had a good start and rode their luck but that try on  halftime was huge I felt . The second half Souths looked demoralised . I always felt they would struggle to go all the way with Ilias at 7 , he’s got to many weak areas , but they’re bigger names like Latrell and Walker didn’t come to the party today and Penrith just do what they do and squeezed the life out of them

Latrell had 7 runs for 50m. Dylan Edwards had 24 runs for 230m, but Latrell is the superstar???

[Number 16]

God, but I dislike both the Panthers and the Eels... but Cleary sways it for me! 

Go Parra!

Latrell had a shocker. Forgetting his lack of work effort, his positioning in defence was woeful and badly exposed by the Panthers. He’s too hit and miss for me, I still think he’s a better centre than full back

[THE RED ROOSTER]

Slightly concerned for 25 minutes, but once the Penny Panthers got going - One way traffic. Four disallowed tries underscoring the gulf between the two sides.

Not sure considering the Cows game and Penrith's slow start that having a week off really goves that muich of an advantage as oposed ti playing each week.
