Storm played crap and without some dubious calls - they probably still win it.

Bloody hard to play when an obvious call goes against….Craig’s presser will be interesting.
I’m mad at the system and officiating…

But congrats to panthers…

The Kid Larry has to be the worst NRL act since the Tina Turner impersonator last year. Absolute shocker not helped by NINE's terrible sound production.

Will never get near what St George did.

 

[The Nostradamus]

Keen to see how they go without luai, turuva and fisher Harris next year

Whilst storm not losing anyone

freakish record, but different era with no tackle count then.

I’m amazed that these decisions are glossed over so Quickly by the commentators

Hahah
RIGGED IS TRENDING MORE THAN NRL GF

It’s chan 9 pro let’s hang on to the old Sydney NSW 80s comp thinking
Go back and watch any storm gf and it’s the same….
My sister who can’t stand league walked in on one listened and made the comment ….holly heck are they for real…… says it all

Cracking old school game, full credit to both sides. Four in a row is something else.

Thanks Ivan.

 

[Roostorm]

Thanks Ivan.

Oh the irony of what happened…….
As l said…a lot of chickens coming home to roost.
My anger is at the officiating and non calls.

But to RS and desie and any other north supporters that follow Penrith….go and enjoy….

Disagree that they played crap. Basically defended all game. Harry Grant with 59 tackles. Certainly the game never opened up and the running power of Storm was barely in action, but they worked their socks off. Penrith are a good unit and targeting the centre of the park was smart. Massively missed NAS. There can be little complaint about their effort, imo.

Defence is only one part man

Yeah I get that, not sure any other team doesn't get smashed. The work rate was there, Penrith were just better.

 

[Roostorm]

Thanks Ivan.

Yep got his man on the inside for tonights bunker

Yes missed NAS….but that non call was the absolute gut punch….to the whole team…they knew it was a try …and that is about as big as a fudge you ….
This bloke was pretty spot on too…this would have been shocking as well…


you could see Munster and Harry prior to that getting shirty with Kline non hold calls…..
But the icing on the cake before the non bunker call was straight after kick off in the second half ….Jack H l think …tackled by 3 players …the ball is stripped….Jack puts his hands up to complain…Kline is no where near the play …touch judge 2 meters away…..nothing…play on …..
Pretty sure at the start of the match in the first five there was a mighty swinging coat hanger in a three man tackle that if it connected would have been interesting…
The review will be interesting

Officiating was fine, Penrith just played better.
Storm will be better for the experience, good bet for next year

Enjoy what? A rigged outcome that would make Kim Jong Un wince?

Already said thanks, Ivan.

I have no quarrel with our fellow north panthers supporters KC..
But boy am l fired up about this outcome…..worse than the manly on…
It’s right up there with the biggest stuff ups…( there were a few ) of any sporting code in the world.
Can’t wait to see what lip service of fudge all the media will do….
It will be gently gently ow this happened but the result was x….
Yeah it was x because the whole game changed right there….l can’t think at the moment of a grand final anywhere where the intervention call changed the entire outcome….suppose the guy was unbiased …being a life member of said club that benefited.
There’s just soo much to unpack….and the fact x has exploded with rigged , cheating l can’t see how they can burry their heads in the sand with this….

But unlike previous years ……we don’t loose a bucket load of players..
# revenge 25 ….

But agree with next year thoughts.

And assisted……makes a huge difference….
