They're going to relentlessly attack Whitehead and Croker, and it will pay off enough.
Not enough speed to cover those guys out there

Kikau literally dropped his shoulder into Raps while Raps was on the ground

We have literally seen players suspended for that.

He's allowed to make a tackle. He's not obiligated to do it softly at all.
Sorry but that's the rules. Kikau was entitled to do that, and Hudson had no business reacting. Welcome to a contact sport
He's allowed to drop in with his shoulder, with his arm tucked into his side? If the player wasn't prone on the ground there's no argument about the technique of that tackle being a shoulder charge.

38th min Rapana forced to take the ball out after a kick to the corner. Panthers get another shot in the red zone.

Wasn't that touch in goal? His knee smashed the corner post before anything else went out... A drop out is better than a 10m play the ball...

Questions need to be asked of why Stuart is carrying two hookers on his bench.

Well it’s over because of bad team selection. 2 x hookers on the bench!

CNK is there to contest that. Maybe not stop it, but he’s atleast in the picture. Raps was by the posts. **** this 18th man rule **** me!

39th min TRY PANTHERS to Jarome Luai. He kicks ahead and chases and scores. They went the length of the field after the Whitehead knock on, and then got a repeat set. Cleary converts. The Raiders will trail by 12 at half time, and it probably doesn't reflect the play. But they have paid for mistakes.

Panthers 18-6

HALF TIME

We had our chances and didn't take them. Had the Panthers right on the backfoot, making errors left right and centre. No one to blame but ourselves here

Nothing unlucky about the injury. Kikau belted him in the back of the head.

The Rapana penalty has turned this game on its head, and I knew with our luck CNK wouldn't be coming back either. At least it's Round 5 and not the granny.

There is a lesson here somewhere..oh yeah... ground the ball Croker.

And how about a bench that we actually utilise?

2 middles and 2 hookers when our captain (a hooker) plays 80 mins.

Games done...

We are still in this. Remember the Melbourne game when we lost Hodgson and just lost. We were also behind against Roosters as well and won. But need to play very well. Stupid unenforced errors and ill discipline not helping.

We will leave the bench composition and our best 13 including the centres for another way

It's been a game which really shows the fine margins of game management, and scoring when you need to

He's allowed to complete a tackle, yes. He's obligated to do it gently. Hudson Young cost us possession. That's on him. Focus on the things you can control.

The shoulder charge arguement is interesting. Could make a case for it, though admittedly i've cant recall seeing anyone get penalised for a shoulder charge in that circumstance unless there is direct contact to the head. Much as fans here are screaming there was on this case, there wasnt based on replays i saw

Glad to get to half time here. Not a great first stint from our boys. Some poor errors from some experienced heads havent done us very well. To be perfectly honest the period we were on top you could probably say Penrith were well below their normal standards too.

CNK out is a massive loss. The reshuffle plays a fair bit of havoc. This was never going to be easy. Time for the boys to show the heart we know they have.
