Being a diehard Penrith supporter i am probably a bit biased in saying i think we have a great team, so my question is, is it just me because i support them or am i right and we haven't got any confidence and self belief at the moment to win games????
In my opinion we have a team capable of being a top 4 side and even winning a premiership, yet week in and week out we put ourselves in winning positions or even positions to strike and we dont go on with it and it is getting very very frustrating!!!!

I would say you have a good team, not a great team. With the players you have you should be making the top 8, but I don't think you are a contender for the premiership.
You miss ball playing forwards like Puletua and Galavau (is that how you spell it?) and right now I think guys like Clinton and Waterhouse are badly out of form.
The Panthers also seem very one dimensional in attack. Every attacking set of six is pretty much either Gower or Campbell running across the field and the only bloke that consistently breaks the line is Rhys Wesser.

I am happy to see Penrith get beaten any day of the week!!!!
Wesser is the standout player in a team of good not great players.
Penrith lead against Manly by 26 to 6 and got beaten 36 to 26. No stamina. Maybe the boys from the mountains should train a little longer each session. Then again John Lang is your coach. I don't really rate him in the same league as Folkes ,Stuart, Bennett, Murray, Hagan, Smith or Sheens.
Manly's comeback yesterday was unbelievable. I thought they where Goooooorne after about the 55 minute mark. It just goes to show what a little self belief can do for you.
Go Manly!!!
God I can't believe I said that. ;)

Testa, dont know what is wrong, they have some great players and the rest are pretty good also, but for some reason they are not playing as a TEAM ,a leeser team like the tigers are playing as a TEAM with not many "glamour" players there, and JD thats not a very nice thing to say about the panthers, as a TRUE roosters fan, its a great day when the Bulldogs and Saints get rolled.
