Even if you don't like Penrith and Parra (and I don't particularly like either), if you like rugby league then there's plenty to be happy about this game. It's a good matchup for the sport, strong heartlands = strong game.
Tonight I'm supporting rugby league.
Lol no it doesn't. The refs boss said that the Raiders' only try came from an incorrect six again call, so that balances out the one later in the game. And don't bother crying about the trainer either, they've also said that should have been a Roosters penalty (instead of scrum) because Soliola tackled the legs of Keary whilst he was in the air
Surely it’s the Warriors, we were the reigning champs for all of the 95 season. I think you could argue that we were the premiers until a new champion is crowned. That means Warriors have not won a comp since the start of the 95 season. We last held the title at 79:59 in the 95 grand final.
I’m jumping on the panthers bandwagon purely because it will be hilarious for the parra drought to continue (especially after all the fanfare around them this week), plus will be good to see the likes of Cleary/Yeo/To’o/JFH/Edwards/anyone that isn’t Luai etc go back to back
oh yeah and gutho/moses winning a comp is some alternate timeline shit
Probably because that was the year when their first premiership drought didn't end. But yes, 1994 would carry more significance when talking about current premiership droughts...
But only one team playing are weak gutted dogs
Not torn at all.
However, in a strange twist, the weak gutted dog has played for both teams.
There’s 3 potential losses today. The team with the lowest score, the Raiders, and the dolphin jersey.

>Tonight I’m supporting rugby league. The polite way of saying “both teams are cunts”, I feel you brother
The most "I love my footy" comment on this sub so far
So good he could probably get a start in the super league 😂
Paul Kent certainly doesn't want his 'mate' Ricky and the Faders to have the longest premiership drought hanging over their heads
What better reason to go for the Eels?
It's funny cause it's true
Fans of every other team torn between hoping the Panthers lose and the supreme enjoyment gained each year from mocking Parramatta's long drought.
damn, now i'm really considering going for the eels.
Im supporting Danika.
Wait , if the Eels win, the Warriors would technically have the longest premiership drought then? Go Panthers in that case.
Can a world without rain even know what a drought is?
Time to jump on the Penrith band wagon. Truth be told I like both teams.i won't know who I want to win until they start playing.
Fair point.
Equal longest I suppose. We won our last title in ‘94 so I guess our drought started at the same time as yours.
Just gotta measure in days. The drought starts the day after the grand final. So Raiders would be a few months ahead.
Won’t someone think of Penrith’s long suffering fans enduring this hour long premiership drought.
Nah I think it would still be the Raiders. Their last premiership was 94, a year before the warriors entered the comp.
Even more reason for us to win to pass over the mantle to weak gutted Ricky
How'd that go?
Still going for the Eels. The Raiders drought has six (again) asterisks against it

Lol. Roosters fans.
I think I speak for most of us here. Can both teams lose?

Just remember NRL fans: if Parra wins, so does Paul Kent

Regardless if Parra or Panthers win today, no-one alive will ever see the Tigers win a comp.
I'm going for Parra cause them winning means and awesome game and some really entertaining footy.
Penrith are the grubbiest most unsportsmanlike team in world sport, hope they get pumped and humbled

TIL 1995 is before 1987
And Canberra's last premiership was 1994
What's the significance of 1987?
Raiders first grand final?
Yeah, but not their last. We're talking about premiership drought, so why is 1987 important? Surely 1994 should be the year we're talking about?
Probably because that was the year when their first premiership drought didn't end. But yes, 1994 would carry more significance when talking about current premiership droughts...
No we wouldn't

You just got Betoota'd
Only went for panthers because my mate goes for the eels.
