GO THE BLUES - 13+
To’o 1st Try Scorer 
Firstly I want all Penrith players to get through the game unharmed.
Second I want a NSW victory.
Third I want Dylan to win MOTM.
My (very hesitant) pick- NSW to win in a landslide
GO BLUES!!!
Hoping for our Panther boys to lead the way & get thru unscathed.
I was expecting a low scoring arm wrestle, and so far that is what we have. I have NSW 16-12 in pick the score, fingers crossed.
Brian To’o hit with a Grade 2 contract conduct charge for his involvement in an on-field brawl.
He will be charged 13% of his match fee.
No NRL games will be missed.
It’s been a great series. I get if it wasn’t for the send off in game 1 we would have clean swept that series.
It’s good to see that NSW has some depth now to cover positions.
Really impressed with Luai and Moses. Moses would not be my first pick at half, but he certainly rose to the occasion and delivered. Hopefully Nico Hynes never gets a look in again.
Now that the Origin is behind it, we are full steam ahead for the finals series and the “fourpeat” is on.
NRL.com reports Dylan Edwards picked up a posterior cruciate ligament injury, expected to miss 2-4 weeks.
I think Laurie will play this weekend, but if not is about a week away from injury recovery. He will do a great job at FB while Edwards recovers.
In WW, Masked Panther is reporting that Isaiah Iongi will make his debut on Sunday at FB.
[ I don’t know how to link reports] 
Though I also saw Peter Lang say that Laurie is a certain starter this week I guess we will find out for sure on the day.
I saw a video clip of the run-on for the Captain’s run & Laurie was front & centre, so looks like he’ll play. I didn’t see any of the SOO guys, so expect they will all rest.
As I typed this, the updated team came thru - Laurie in and NO SOO players backing up for us.
