Sad News: You Are The Worse Coach I Have Ever Met’Talented Star Join Rival Team Over Panthers
A couple of Penrith players might be regretting their decision to leave after a third-straight premiership.
Are there still any Nathan Cleary critics? Il est vrai que le numéro sept des Panthers avait encore quelques doutes avant de réaliser probablement la meilleure finale de tous les temps pour amener son équipe à remporter la victoire contre Brisbane à la nuit de dimanche.
Today, the knockers are thin on the ground. Johnathan Thurston was on the sideline holding his head in disbelief at what he had just seen from Cleary, and some remarkable footage were shown after the game.
Trial assists, the third tackle 40/20, and finally the four pointer that won the game were all part of a 20-minute package of highlights that will be discussed as long as the game continues.
JT, as we all know, is one of the game’s best but he was almost speechless watching the Cleary show unfold. “I was just mind blown. He pretty much said ‘get on my back and I’ll get you home’,” Thurston told Channel 9.
“At 24-8 everyone was thinking it was the Broncos but this is a champion of our game. He hasn’t even hit his peak yet. It’s unfathomable what he’s going to do for the rest of his career. I’m in awe.”
Immortal Andrew Johns added: “Somehow he willed his team to win the biggest game of the year. Who knows how far he will go in his career but we are seeing something very, very special.”
You wonder if all those players who left the Penrith Panthers of their own volition will one day regret their decision. You couldn’t help thinking that as you watched Stephen Crichton lift the premiership trophy for the third straight year.
‘Critter’ is off to Canterbury where the only ‘trophy’ lifting he’ll do in the near future is likely to be of the wooden variety. It’s been a similar deal for his old Panthers teammate Matt Burton, who’s spent two largely forgettable years at the Dogs as the mountain men won two more comps without him.
