Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3300734, member: 9052"] I've only just got around to watching the game, but our issue still lies in the spine. It cannot be understated enough how much Reynolds will bring when he gets here, simply because he will bring an elite kicking game with him. I thought Paix looked good when he was on... may have been overplaying his hand a little bit, but he was at least getting out of dummy half and putting some pressure on the defensive line. Tesi looked a little less involved than past weeks, but had a solid game again... ultimately we just couldn't really get any sort of roll on through the ruck to play off the back of. Even Haas was getting slowed down in the ruck as they held him up... even if he did skittle the Kenny several times. I thought the panthers defence was quite good at blocking our attempts at spreading it with a rushing edge defence, which prevented Gamble from getting it out to Staggs when he wanted to. If Staggs did get his hands on it they were jumping onto him straight away to make it hard for him. They were also good at slowing us down to a crawl and preventing us from getting any momentum... although the ref helps them out in that regard. I thought Isaako looked quite good on the wing in our get out sets and didn't seem to get as dominated as he usually does. Ultimately Penrith's defence was just too good and didn't give us any opportunities to play... i.e. typical Vlando ball. [/QUOTE]
