Finals Week 3 vs Panthers - 4:00pm Sunday 27th of September - Accor Stadium

Far out if we win this game im going to go absolutely bonkers! I dont think i would be able to sit for days i would be so excited.
The Newy fans are going to out number panther fans easy at this game
 
I'm overseas at the moment so can't go.

Great gritty win against the Warriors over there.

We are not clinical enough for the Panthers and rely too much on making it happen off the cuff. Our line speed in defence needs work to limit the opposition sets, and our end of set kicking is poor with Smith chip bombing kicks not making enough distance and not kicking to the corners. And we haven't been getting a man down field to tackle the catcher.

All of that will play in to Penriths game nicely.

But, making the Prelim has to be seen as a massive endorsement of coaching change and a true indication of where this club is at.

Prelim this year, build some belief, grand final next year, if not this year.
 
You know what, if there’s problems with Cleary and he either can’t play or only lasts ten minutes or something …

Then we go to the GF vs a Dolphins side that we’ve beaten this year and don’t have much finals experience …

This could be the ultimate “cards falling our way” premiership.
 
The Knights are going to have more fans than the panthers lol

I honestly believe we can beat the panthers but am extremely concerned with our kicking game. Sandon really struggles to get any distance with his kicks and we can't afford to give the penrith machine easy yardage.

KP put in a kick yesterday and he had some massive distance on it, Sharpe did the same also at one stage so maybe the last tackle kicks need to be mixed up a bit.

I really enjoyed Sharpe's grubbers behind the line which yielded us results.
