You mean like their metaphorical wheels? Or their euphemistic wheels?

The ones on their bus. Raiders to win by forfeit

Wow that is dodgy to take a captains challenge from a coach

Probably happens more than we know. Just happened to have a camera on him at exactly the right time.

Extra time please, thank you.

Need a few more players on report too please

Where was the roosters trainer this time

Suck that Robinson. Let’s see you challenge now.

Gee Panthers are good

Cleary spank fest is sickening

He's lucky he was held up, would have been double movement

Hopefully we get the chance to send these ***** packing next week

Why didn't the Panthers go for goal... if they were going to eventually go for field goal?

Now the Roosters score. What an error from Naden.

Panthers 29-28

Was that a shoulder charge from Kikau at the kick off?

Feeling less confident about next week than i was at half time

Keary misses the field goal.

Toho almost as bad as our Semi.

Roosters have let in a combined 89 points in their last 2 games

JWH must be injured. He's been pretty ordinary the last few weeks.

FULL TIME

Penrith Panthers 29
Sydney Roosters 28

Same. Was hoping for a Roosters implosion but that fight back shows that they are still in the fight.

Assuming Hargreaves doesn't play next week.
Kikau possibly for his tip over.

We're in for a tough game next week v Roosters should we beat Sharks.

Quality to come back like that.

Baden a goose for taking that kick off.

We have to beat the Sharks tomorrow and get an amazing grand final rematch against the roosters in a big final.

Can’t think about next week until after tomorrow’s game however. Sharks first.

I reckon Easts were a fair bit dudded last night and were, at worst, on par with Penrith. I actually think they were the better team over all.

2 of Penrith’s tries we’re pretty blatantly wrong calls from the officials imo.

Also. How many set restarts were there all game? How obvious is it that would happen.

The slowing down of the game is something that will suit us should today’s games be officiated the same.

Which 2 tries? Roosters were charging off the 10 metres for the first 20 minutes. Wighton got sinbinned for doing it once.

I’m probably on my own here, but despite the closeness of the game I thought it lacked finals intensity. There was impressive attacking football with very few errors, but it felt to me like the defence from both sides wasn’t finals intensity. I think that will be to our detriment because Roosters have another gear in them I reckon.

Agree that Penrith were hit in the butt by the rainbow that was the refereeing - two of their tries were very suspect.

Edit - @gergreg, assuming julian has the same opinion as me. Think it was Cleary’s first try which looked to come from a knock on with the tackled player dropping it forward and it rebounding back. The second for me was that Luai was offside on his tap back.

Five. Let's not complain... we're one of the most "penalised" sides with set re-starts.

You're not on your own. I was expecting a typical finals slugfest from two of the toughest defense's to crack. Turned out to be a fast paced shoot out punctuated by a number of defensive a errors. Normally tries are much harder to come by when the top sides clash in finals. Wasn't the case last night.

The one where Liam Martin (?) lost it onto his own knee and then a Roosters player? If that is the one then I agree it should have been a knock on.

Hahaha always spins me out that Jules is younger than me and refers to them as “Easts”

That’s the sort of behaviour I usually reserve for old blokes down the pub who complain that they don’t push in scrums anymore

Wait, what? When did they stop pushing in scrums?

Naden couldn’t tackle Morris for the life of him last night. Terrible defence

Naden had a horror night all round. If Roosters got that last field goal he couldn't have found a hole big enough to crawl into.

Him taking that kick off had me in stitches
