Panthers fans, you can hit the panic button now.

In fact, you can smash it as hard as you can.

After last weekend’s 24-12 loss to the Bulldogs, it’s clear now that the Panthers are facing a severe uphill battle to

reach the finals.Injuries have of course crippled Penrith’s

chances of building any momentum in this year’s competition but you have to wonder if the problems go beyond the obvious toll of hurt players.

For the last month, we’ve watched the Panthers be totally dominated by their opposition early in matches, forcing the side to play catch-up football.

In their last three games against the Eels, Storm and Bulldogs, the opposition has led by 12-0 by the 8th, 18th and 15th minutes respectively.

When you play catch-up football, there’s a good chance that your error rate and frustration levels will rise – particularly when you’ve got young players filling in for senior guys who are on the sideline.

Penrith’s confidence appears shot at the moment.

At ANZ Stadium last weekend, the Bulldogs sprinted back onto the field for the second half – keen to tackle the next 40 minutes of football. The Panthers on the other hand strolled out like they were going for a team walk at the beach. Some-thing wasn’t right about it.

As it turned out the Bulldogs scored just five minutes into the second half and the rest is history.

So yes, hit the panic button, but be care-ful where you lay the blame as only those on the inside really know what the issue is at the moment.

Pointing the finger at individual players is risky business, particularly when many of them are doing their best in trying circumstances. Nobody plays to lose.

Penrith’s obvious problem at the moment is scoring points.

The side has scored a total of 12 points in their last 160 minutes of football and is constantly failing to convert opportuni-ties close to the line.

Defence isn’t really the issue – despite an at times awful completion and error rate, the Panthers haven’t been blown off the park during this period of poor form and that’s definitely a plus for coach Ivan Cleary, who almost certainly would have worked solely on boosting the side’s attacking credentials this week.

If the Panthers are to crawl out of the hole they’re currently in, it will most likely be on the back of Bryce Cartwright who has been sensational for the Panthers over the last month. Cleary had some trouble with Cartwright earlier in the season but a stint in the lower grades has had the desired result – he’s Penrith’s best at the moment.

The Panthers also add some power this weekend with the return of Josh Mansour.

I’m willing to say that the side that loses this game at Leichhardt Oval on Sunday will not make the finals – or at least will find it very difficult to do so.

If both sides can show the form they’ve threatened to produce at various times this season, a good game of football may just break out.

My fear for the Panthers is that even a good performance might not be enough – they’re in a slump at the moment that could take two to three weeks to come out the other side of.

Let’s just hope that when the wins finally do come, it’s not too late.

» Penrith’s injury woes continue with hooker James Segeyaro to miss at least the next month of football after suffer-ing a knee injury against the Bulldogs last weekend. Segeyaro suffered a grade two medial ligament tear in his left knee, and was assisted from the field mid-way through the second half. It’s a huge blow for the Panthers who have very rarely had their spine of 1, 6, 7 and 9 on the field at the same time this season.

» The Panthers will introduce a new Hall of Fame next season as part of the club’s 50th anniversary celebrations. There is likely to be heavy debate over who will be the first inductees, though most would accept that both Greg Alexander and Royce Simmons should be there. Despite the way he left the club, you would also think that 2003 premiership-winning captain Craig Gower should be part of any Hall of Fame.

» Panthers cheerleader Jess Gilarte (pic-tured) is a finalist in the annual Big League Cheerleader of the Year competition. She’ll feature in next week’s Big League magazine, going head-to-head with Steph from the Dragons. Keep an eye out for the magazine and vote for Jess!

» Daily Telegraph journalist Phil Rothfield was beating an old drum on Monday, having a shot at the Panthers and Phil Gould over the current state of the club. Rothfield, who for whatever reason has an axe to grind with Gould, declared that the much-hyped five year plan isn’t work-ing. Rothfield fails to acknowledge the extraordinary turnaround that Penrith has undergone off the field, and has bizarrely declared the club’s injury crisis as an “excuse”. The best thing Penrith fans could do is ignore Rothfield and his obvious vendetta against the Panthers and Gould. I’m making the pledge today that Rothfield won’t get another mention in this column. It’s a Buzz-free zone!

» Anyone who saw the end of Ivan Cleary’s press conference last Saturday night when the issue of Trent Barrett came up could tell that it’s currently a very awkward situation. However, I’m told that newspaper reports suggesting Barrett was under fire for luring Lewis Brown to Manly next season are wildly inaccurate. Brown was told some time ago that he was free to talk to other clubs and in fact, I was told in the opening

weeks of the season that it is was highly unlikely that he would be retained for next season. Brown has signed a three-year deal with the Sea Eagles.

» Former Panthers Chairman Leo Armstrong passed away this week and Rob Weaver, who was once the club’s Media Manager, has shared this great story that shows how well thought of Mr Armstrong was at the club: “As a young man, Leo Armstrong flew as navigator in the famous Lancaster bomber, ‘G for George’ over Germany. The aircraft, now restored, is in the Australian War Museum in Canberra. I can’t remember now what year it was – but I think after Leo had stepped down as Chairman – that we went to Canberra to play the Raiders on a cold Saturday night. On the Satur-day morning, we all climbed aboard our coach and headed for the War Museum. Shane Richardson, Barry Walsh, Leo, John Lang, a couple of others and I went into the RAAF section to look for George. Unbeknown to us, the famous kite had been taken away for renovation, but they did have a display where it normally stood – and one of the items was a black and white photo of a group of young men in front of George, ready to fly on a mission. Among them was an impossibly young but unmistakable Leo Armstrong. Barry Walsh spotted Tony Puletua, Joe Galuvao and a couple of other players sauntering along nearby. He beckoned them over and asked Tony if he recog-nised anyone in the photo. Tony bent down from his great height to study the photo, then straightened up and looked at Leo, and his face broke into a broad smile. Tony and the boys departed, but

over the next 15 minutes or so, most of the team came by to look at the

photo. Later, in the courtyard wait-ing for the coach, and on the coach

itself, it was obvious there was only one topic of conversation. And that was Leo Armstrong. We beat Canberra that night, which wasn’t something we had a good record of doing at night in the icy capital.”

» There’s talk that prop Brent Kite may never return to the field. Kite is retiring

at the end of the season but is struggling to over-

come an injury and may pull the pin early.

Former Penrith Panthers club chairman and life member Leo Armstrong has died, aged 92. Mr Armstrong was first elected to the Panthers Board of Directors in

1980 and served as club chairman for 16 years, from 1984 to 1999.

In that time he oversaw the growth of the licensed club, which moved to its Mulgoa Road site in his first year as chairman, and the football club, which won its first premiership in 1991 under his chairman-ship.

Mr Armstrong was honoured with a Panthers life membership in 1991 and continued to serve as a club director until 2003.

Current Panthers chairman Don Feltis paid tribute to the significant contribution Mr Armstrong made to the growth and success of the Panthers Group.

“Under Leo’s astute and respected leadership over many years, the Panthers Group was able to implement numerous innovative and productive initiatives,” he said.

Born in the small Queensland town of

Gayndah in 1922, Mr Armstrong lived a very long and fruitful life.

He finished high school in Brisbane in the 1930s before taking up a job with the Commonwealth Bank.

The commencement of World War II saw Mr Armstrong enlist in the Royal Austral-ian Air Force (RAAF) where he trained as a navigator and joined the RAAF Bomber Command in February 1944. He completed 32 operations in a Lancaster bomber before seeing out the war working with Transport Command in India.

Upon his return to Australia, Mr Armstrong re-joined the Commonwealth Bank and became manager of the Penrith branch in 1969 – a position he held until his retirement in January 1984.

Speaking with Extra Time, Mr Armstrong’s son Tim said his father wasn’t just a great dad but also a great bloke.

“If he wasn’t my own dad and I met him, I’d say what a nice fella he was,” he said.

“The first year Penrith won the premier-ship he was chairman and he was abso-lutely chuffed by that.

“He loved his time at Panthers and was a very passionate fan.

“He never got upset, never got angry or frustrated, he had a heart of gold.”

His funeral was held on Thursday.

ORIGIN’S NEW HOME IN MELBOURNE

State of Origin is without doubt the most intense, competitive and bril-liant sporting contest in Australia, if

not, the world. Every year it just keeps on getting

bigger and every year the build-up and the series just keep on giving, never fail-ing to deliver.

How good was Origin II this year at the Melbourne Cricket Ground?

I was lucky enough to be there and wow what an atmosphere and what a game for the 91,000 strong crowd.

There was a black mark on the event, of course, the shameful behaviour of a few idiots during the one minute silence for one of Australia’s greatest middle distance runners, Ron Clarke.

What goes through the heads of these complete morons? Obviously not much!

But, putting that aside, State of Origin in Melbourne was a massive success and is a must to return every three years.

The crowd was probably 80 per cent pro Queensland and yet still Laurie Daley’s Blues managed to out niggle and outplay

the mighty Maroons to square up the series and take us to what will be a classic decider in Brisbane.

I remember being at the MCG back in 1994 when Origin was played there for the first time and what a difference 20 years makes.

Back then it was the strangest thing to see and hear a full stadium with virtually no passion or engagement from the fans.

They really didn’t understand what they were watching back then, but that’s certainly all changed now.

This crowd was right into it and it was hair on the back of your neck stuff.

I know the players all consider it a career highlight, the fans loved it and will spread the word. And as far as promoting the game beyond NSW and Queensland, it’s a definite winner.

Yes, I was one who was a little skeptical about taking a game to Victoria, but I’m a skeptic no more. It was win win win and I reckon it’ll become a must on every sport lovers’ bucket list to be at an Origin game at the ‘G’. Bring on Origin III!

Politicians and Panthers have had their first training session together ahead of an eight day Kokoda Trail trek in September.

Last Friday, Member for Mulgoa Tanya Davies put a few hard hits on Penrith’s finest in Royce Simmons, Brad Waugh and Kevin Kingston to prove she’s got what it takes to mentor seven Year 11 girls along the gruelling 96km Papua New Guinea trail.

Ms Davies said she wants to lead by example and challenge herself mentally and physically.

“In life there will always be great obsta-cles and great challenges that will come to you and I think it’s really empowering to know what you can handle,” she said.

“I’ve always wanted to do the Kokoda Trail because my grandfather fought over there, but it’s also going to be really enrich-ing for young women to find their inner potential and learn in a practical sense teamwork and supporting each other.”

After the success of the first Panthers on the Prowl Kokoda Trek in 2013, which saw a number of local Year 11 boys embark,

Ms Davies approached Prowl General Manager Brad Waugh about running the same thing for young women.

Current mentors for this year’s trek are Ms Davies, Federal Member for Lindsay Fiona Scott and former Olympian and Federal Senator Nova Peris.

Ms Davies said they are still seeking more support for the young women.

“We are approaching business women to participate as a mentor during the project,

but also provide funds to pay for one of the students that has been selected,” she said.

Mr Waugh said corporate sponsorship will cover the mentor and one of the young girls’ trips, with a small amount going to the Prowl’s other community projects.

“It is a fundraiser but I can guarantee it will be one of those once in a lifetime experiences for everyone,” he said.

To be involved contact Mr Waugh at [email protected].

KEV’S KORNER

In the rugby league community, many of us grew up with a passionate attach-ment to our local grounds.

Pepper Stadium, Henson Park, North Sydney Oval and Leichhardt Oval are

just a few examples of suburban grounds which Sydneysiders would frequent on the weekend.

Pulling on the team colours, enjoying a pie and sauce, getting a great view from the vantage point of dad’s shoulders and watching your heroes play was, and still should be, a regular outing for rugby league loving families.

The Panthers travel to Leichhardt Oval on Sunday in what is a must-win clash for the boys. They will face a hostile Tigers crowd and will need as much support from Panthers fans as possible.

I’m excited to see what Apisai Koroisau can bring to the team after being named to start the game for the injured James Sege-yaro. He stepped up when the Rabbitohs needed him last season and walked away with a premiership ring. I’m confident he can deliver for the Panthers in their time of need.

Another week at fullback will have done wonders for Dallin Watene-Zelezniak and his combination with Peter Wallace and Jamie Soward will continue to improve. And, of course, we welcome back fan favourite Josh Mansour on the wing.

Make sure you get down to Leichhardt Oval early and watch the high-flying Panthers NYC team, who will be shooting for their 10th win in a row against the seventh-placed Tigers.

The Panthers, having had the second of three scheduled competition byes, re-sume their defence of the NSW Cup when they travel to Central Coast Stadium this Sunday to take on Sydney Roosters’ feeder club, Wyong Roos in a battle of 1 v 5.

The timing of this game (4.30pm) is odd to say the least as it has been scheduled to kick-off 30 minutes after the conclusion of the NRL game between Sydney Roost-ers and Gold Coast. Most NSW Cup games if played at a NRL game-day venue will preclude the main game.

The Panthers went into the bye having avenged their early season loss to New-castle winning the Grand Final replay, 30-24 at Pepper Stadium while Wyong Roos come into this clash having returned to their winning ways in defeating Manly away from home 38-26.

This clash has proven to be fiery in recent years. In 2014 honours were shared between the sides with the home team winning on both occasions; Wyong defeated Penrith 30-26 before the Pan-thers returned the favour defeating the Roos 32-24, a match highlighted by the controversial suspension handed out to Dallin Watene-Zelezniak after then Roos skipper, Jay Florimo made an on-field

allegation he had been eye-gouged in the last minute of play.

This game also represents a battle between the competition’s two best defensive teams; Penrith’s climb to the top of the table has been built all around their defence, conceding just 15 points per game with Wyong having conceded just 19 points per game.

In team news, Wyong have named a very strong team, including the likes of Samisoni Langi, Lagi Setu, Mitch Wil-liams, Matt McIllwrick as well as recent recruits Omar Slaimankhel and Lopini Paea and their aggressive style of play especially in the forwards will be a good test for the Panthers.

Conversely injuries and suspension have forced Penrith to make several changes for this clash.

Robert Jennings returns from injury to take his place in the centres but the suspension of hooker Sione Katoa and yet another injury to Adam Docker sees a reshuffle to the starting pack. Matt Eisenhuth comes onto the bench with Andy Saunders promoted to start at prop, Leilani Latu moving back to lock, Chris Smith comes into the back-row and Brendan Attwood moves to hooker. Ato-nio Pelasasa also comes onto the bench.

REFRESHED PANTHERS LOOK TO CONTINUE WINNING WAYS AFTER BYE WEEKEND

Penrith’s incredible winning streak almost came to an end last Saturday evening, at the hands of a fast-finishing Canterbury Bulldogs side.

The Panthers were well in control with a 30-10 lead before the Bulldogs made things very interesting, scoring four tries in the final 10 minutes to go down narrowly 30-26.

Penrith got on the board first through Corey Waddell after playmaker Dylan Edwards put up a deft cross-field kick to the wing of Fuimanu Enese, who caught the ball and passed it to Waddell to dive over from close range.

Canterbury hit back soon after with two quick tries which put them in front 10-6 before Panthers hooker Soni Luke steamed out of dummy half untouched to put Penrith back in front 12-10.

With Penrith in charge once again, it was time for them to score a few more points before the end of the half, with Edwards putting up another brilliant bomb, which was this time caught by captain Brent Naden, who soared above the rest of the pack to grab the Steeden and touch it down between the posts.

Penrith went into the break 18-10 leaders.

Cowan Epere got Penrith’s tally tick-

ing over not long after the players hit the field for the second half, with the big forward powering his way straight through some paper-thin Dogs defence to go over and score his first of the year.

With Penrith up 24-10, Naden was for-tunate enough to get his second try of the evening following an incisive break by Luke with 12 to go which saw him feed his captain on the inside to cruise over and score.

The most interesting aspect of the night happened in the final 10 minutes when the Panthers, up by 20, put the cue in the rack and fell asleep.

With both sides down a man due to a late heated scuffle, Penrith quickly fell apart with Canterbury scoring four quick tries to narrow the score.

However the Bulldogs were their own worst enemy, missing four straight conversions which, if made, would’ve saw Penrith lose their first game in nine weeks.

This Sunday afternoon the first-placed Panthers will look for 10 in-a-row when they visit historic Leichhardt Oval to take on the seventh-placed West Tigers in Round 16 of the Holden Cup competi-tion.

Kick-off is at 1.45pm.
