Who’s just this week brought TTurbo into his Supercoach Squad?

It's going to be one of those weeks when we set off expecting 1300 and breath a sigh of relief when the last updates scrape you just over 1000.

That was a very entertaining game . The Dolphins are one of the best sides to watch . Few iffy decisions in that game from the two most experienced refs in the game , not just the Turbo incident but Klein penalising a soccer style run into a player after a kick and dive then missing Herbie being throttled round the neck . I know the NRL piles millions into officiating but I honestly don’t think they’re getting a good return 

[Spotty Herbert]

Personally, I think Klein and Sutton are well past their best and younger refs need to be brought through more rapidly.

He did score over 70 before his injury.

PANTHERS   v   DOGS

[Farmduck]

Still 0-0 after 24 mins

[Graham]

Garner scores a try and bags the first points of the game after about 25 minutes.

[Graham]

Good finish.

Goal from you know who…

6-0

[Farmduck]

Looks like rain has stopped for a while. The Weather Bureau has been forecasting apocalyptic rain for the last week but it hasn't quite happened here. It comes down in buckets for about 3-5 minutes then nothing for an hour or two.

[Farmduck]

I was wrong. I thought the Doggies blew it when they got rid of Armadillo and kept Kiraz. At the time I would have gone the other way but now I think they were right.

37min: Try'o to To'o

[Graham]

To’o in for a try.

Dogs their own worst enemies gifting Panthers the ball over and over again.

[Graham]

Nathan Cleary has left the field just before half time. 

[Graham]

Edwards goaled.

12-0

Cleary, hamstring tweak?

[Farmduck]

Edwards kicks the goal because Cleary has left the field with 90 seconds to HT

Only a minute or so, and the Panthers use up a sub rather than leave him out there on the fringe of things. Worrying.

Must be bad if they didn't want him to tough it out till HT

[Graham]

All the initial summary talk of the first half on Fox revolving about the Cleary injury and it’s ramifications for Panthers, NSW, the world, etc.

It certainly has me re-evaluating the last 50 years of my life. Maybe Drew Hutchison will have to play for the Blues with Alex Twal in the centres.
