If you wanna be the man you gotta beat the man editionNRL>GAME 1Canterbury Bulldogs v Penrith Panthers 4:05pm AEST on Fox, Kayo and Ch9Accor Stadium3.56-1.30>The Bulldogs coach & key players were part of the Panthers' first two years of their four consecutive titles. A Prelim in Brisbane is the winner's prize as Accor Stadium hosts a Sunday afternoon blockbuster as the battered but brave Bulldogs face their western Sydney rivals, the four-time reigning premiers Penrith Panthers, in a do-or-die elimination semi-final. The Bulldogs are limping into this clash after a bruising 26-18 qualifying final loss to the Storm, a defeat made worse by a significant injury toll. Their late-season form is a major concern, having now lost four of their last five games. The Panthers look ominous as they continue their historic quest to win the premiership from outside the top four. They were clinical in dispatching the Warriors 24-8 in Auckland and appear to be building towards their peak with their most influential players leading the charge. The Bulldogs face an injury crisis with Enari Tuala ruled out, forcing a major reshuffle. Matt Burton moves to the centres, with Toby Sexton and Lachlan Galvin forming a new halves pairing. Captain Stephen Crichton was ruled out on Saturday. Penrith has named the same 17 that defeated the Warriors, with hooker Mitch Kenny a chance to return from a hamstring injury after being named on the extended bench. The teams have split their two encounters in 2025. The Panthers won a tight, finals-like arm-wrestle 8-6 in Round 17, while the Bulldogs recorded a comprehensive 28-4 victory in the Round 26 rematch; however, that result is largely irrelevant as a form guide, as the Panthers rested 16 of their regular first-grade players for the match.Bulldogs 1-12 4.25Bulldogs 13+ 12.00Panthers 1-12 2.65Panthers 13+ 2.25Bulldogs +10.5 1.82 Panthers -10.5 1.99
>two super league teams
>>150891420Only 2 non Super League teams made the 8 and the both exited week 1. Sorry you had to find out like this
>>150891599Easts and Melbourne are the two non SL clubs that made the finals
Maybe I, as a staunch ARL loyalist, should support the storm from here… hmm maybe not
Not sure who takes this one
Penrith should be heavy favourites because Canterbury aren’t actually good
Melbourne Storm are canonically the successor team of the Hunter Mariners and were owned and founded by Rupert Murdoch himself. Some could say that by adding a new team in 1998 into an already overcrowded comp that needed to cut teams, the Melbourne Storm directly lead to North Sydney and Souths getting kicked out.
Based storm
>>150891871Let me have my delusion
I really want to see Sharks win and a Panthers vs Sharks Grand Final. But its gonna be Storm vs Broncos.
thank you for having faith in the broncos but walters is more important than people realise, especially at the oppositions expense they sleep on him too, they just see him as 'oh he's just the coach's kid' but he just reads the game and can just spurt out and be energetic at the perfect moment to just reinforce their forward play I have always like him

I forgot how injured the Doggies are. Not looking good for them at all.
BroncGODS how we feeling about panthers next week
>>150903163Called it in April to some extent https://archive.4plebs.org/sp/thread/148111468/#q148135635But seems I over-reached by a week
you guys seem to be forgetting that SextonGOD is back in the team and will single handedly carry the team to a win today
Well done sharts, well done...HOWEVER
RLPA polling data>80% of players want the rules of the game left alone>13% of players report having experienced abuse from fans>7% claim to have experienced racism>less than 50% have high trust in their own player agents>76% claim that mid-contract transfers are brought about by club "shoulder-tapping" rather than player desire
>100% of footy customers want diving OUT of the fucking game
i think penrith winning a 5th is the best option
it'd be their most impressive of the 5
>finals>30 postslooks like playing those games in america really paid off!
game doesnt start for another 4 hours mate
>>150904519>>less than 50% have high trust in their own player agentsThought it'd be higher
I really want to see the Sharks out of the /nrl/ and a Broncos vs Storm grandfinal
>>150904959But the spooncastle thread is still going strong so…
Going to hit bump limit soon though
>>150905303imagine that thing hunting you down
Bulldogs will win today Masha'Allah
>>150905650Kek. KEK
Temu Penrith vs. Penrith Lite
>>150904519One more point is that the majority of players report to have changed clubs due to problems with their current club rather than the benefits of their new club
>94.4kgNeed to drop 14kg lads
Cut down on the pizza
>>150906873Lightweight
better be a better game today
Hope so
This has been a season of upsets. Last night was no exception. Penrith started the season losing every game, and just when they were counted out they found form and started winning. Tonight, they're favourites. That means the Dogs will win.
Bulldogs will not score more than 14 points
the crazy lebdogs fans will keep them in it for most of the game but Cleary and the refs will prevail

Galvin has the hair of post menopausal woman
If that was the raiders, he was clearly tackled off the ball, penalty and 10 in the bin

Okay game on then
Do the panthers know you're not suppose to let them through?
Tranny Critta LARPs as a woman and a heckin sideline coach
Klein must’ve got a call to make it more believable
Yep. Just as I predicted. That wanker asshole cancer that is Lachlan Galvin has officially infected the dogs, and they are now terminal. It will be a slow painful death from here on in. He single handedly killed the tigers off in 2025, now hes done it to the bulldogs. Or is it pure coincidence that the dogs season has gone downhill ever since that pumpkin pie haired little poof joined them... I think not.I told you this last year when the hype started and sad cunts in this general had a cry about it telling me how good little Lachie is. You know who you are. He's an average low skill plodder and too young he should be in reserve grade. Dogs are brain-dead to change a team topping the table.They've put all their hopes on that fucking rookie plodder oxygen their lachy galvin...his mere presence in the team is a major handicap...
Alamoti was a Bulldogs reject btw
YOU MAY NOW RESUME IT'S OVER POSTING
It's over
What's with the bow
poodogs cousins...
This Bulldogs winger with the funny name is kinda shit I thought Wilson should have been picked over him
a champion team of champions will always beat a team
>>150908493someone has to beat brisbane/melbourne and dogs aren't capable
Holy moly the Bulldogs are so fucking bad, I was hoping they'd at least injure cleardog but they can't even grub it up properly
Tries to Kiraz and Edwards. Please please please 54 minutes is a ton of time
i hope bulldogs go full scorched earth and just start injuring players
Why the FUCK is Ray Hadley hosting Vonnys show?

Just so much bigger and stronger than their opponents
Kek wtf
That is so fucking soft
They're taking their shirts off lol
Why can't this big chinned CUNT do this for NSW
Kek doggies customers are seething
wasn’t Ciraldo supposed to be a defensive mastermind?
nice interception... HOWEVER
ive stopped trying to understand Klein's penalties
What is the ideal Australian sports team for a man who hates the army, hates soldiers, hates the navy, hates the air force, and wants the most anti-military team of all?
Refball not even needed here

would be pretty cool if Penrith win this year. It'll give everyone hope if their team is stuck at the bottom even after 12 rounds. Plus they break the "can't win outside the top 4" curse AND the 50 point curse.
Klein is a quantum theory ref. There's no such thing as a metre long ruler due to atomic degradation on the atomic level, all mathematical equations are abstract as there is no way to determine an actual measurement at any actual moment in real time in reality although maths is still real

The Bulldogs really did ALLAT, treating random regular season games as Grand Finals, behaving like they won't a Grand final after beating spoon contenders, talking down to other fans just because they're in their first hot period in a decade and splashing all that cash on players just for THIS?kekKEKK-E-K!
bulldogs better be careful here, if Penrith puts 50 on them they wont be able to win the comp.
Allah giveth, and Allah taketh away

How does that negate the knock on? You're supposed to regain control of the ball, which he did not do.
Did they not end up playing Mahoney? I haven't seen him

Was having dinner and just checked the scorelol dogs
I've done the math and poodogs are going to need to score more points if they want to win
