2020 Finals discussion thread

Compare the speed , energy and fitness levels from Penrith to our plodders ! The game has changed and sadly we were playing in a dark ages style and being totally exposed. Sadly we let one of our players go to them who was one player that really suited the new game !!!

Not only that but I believe we are paying about $400k for API to play for the riff ☹️
 
Jerome Leuai best player in the game right now. They keep talking about Cleary but my goodness Jerome every time he gets the ball the defence line goes into suspended animation.

Spot on champ, he's the goods absolutely. We're paying 1.3 million for someone inferior to him unfortunately
 
Watching Api out there, horrible passer but wow he does all the game management. He directs the forwards, sets up the next plays, gets Cleary in the right position on the field so Cleary can just skip across the field and ice the big plays. We need a hooker next year or we have no chance

But the whole team is doing the job around him. Could you imagine Crocker at hooker or Levi doing his typical dummy and run on the 4th in this side. They have API directing the players around the park, forwards just steam rolling onto the ball then when Jerome skips across the field, he has so many options. Can hit Cleary, a back rower, their backs are skillful. Very, very good team all in good form and playing with confidence and self belief.
 
Tonight again shows us how far we have fallen as a club, so far off the pace.

We are still playing a old style of game that just don't suit the modern game

Penrith pleasure to watch play

We need a huge shift in our playing style to even be a remote chance of a top 8 spot next year.

Could be again a very long season for us next year if we aren't careful.

If we paid Jerome 1.3 million and put him in the Manly side they played second half of year would not of made one difference. We need a big big improvement next year, not just getting players back, attitude and belief
