eware the wounded Bulldog.

While the first two rounds of the competition give weight to Penrith’s heavy favouritism for this match, I find myself with a few concerns heading into the twilight kick-off at ANZ Stadium on Friday.

The concerns certainly aren’t based on form, moreso the reality that the Bulldogs have to win eventually and that sides with their backs to the wall so often find a way to rise above the adversity.

The Bulldogs have been disappointing in their first two games, leaking 36 and 30 points respectively against the Storm and Roosters, but they certainly won’t be the only team on the wrong side of a thrash-

ing to those two powerhouse clubs this season.

Canterbury were always likely to start slow with new coach Dean Pay finding his feet and Kieran Foran needing some time to adjust to leading a new side around the park. Don’t underestimate the loss of James Graham either – he provided the leadership and spark that drove the Bulldogs’ aggressive style and the side needs someone to step up and fill that void. At some point it’ll start to click and I can see the Dogs going on a solid mid-season run that very much puts them in Finals contention.

That said, coach Pay has hit the panic button very early, dropping five-eighth Matt Frawley in favour of Jeremy Marshall-King for this clash. It is an intriguing decision given the Frawley / Foran combination had little time to gel.

As for Penrith, round three provides

circumstances that couldn’t be further away from what they faced in the opening rounds.

The obvious one is there will be no vocal home crowd to spur them on.

And after two games in searing heat, this week Penrith will find themselves playing in much cooler conditions after a week of rain in Sydney. It means that while superior fitness got the side home against the Eels and Rabbitohs, it’ll be ball control, improved discipline and possession that wins this one.

With Sam McKendry ruled out through another heartbreaking ACL injury, Moses Leota returns to the top side and simply must step up if he’s going to stay there.

He has been a ‘thereabouts’ player for a couple of seasons now – it’s time to prove he’s worthy of a permanent first grade spot.

Coach Anthony Griffin will also have

some re-shuffling to do in the backs with Dallin Watene-Zelezniak out for the next six weeks after suffering a broken jaw.

The momentum is unlikely to shift in this clash as much as it did in the opening games, which means those slow starts really need to be addressed. We can all praise the character of the side to come back from 14-0 down in two consecutive games, but pleased as he may be with the wins there’s no way coach Griffin would be happy with the way his side is coming out of the blocks.

The partnership between James Maloney and Nathan Cleary is improving quickly and once that has settled, the starts may improve as a result.

I’m sticking with Penrith in this one but I admit, I’m frightened. I sense something is cooking at Canterbury to turn things around – they will win very soon.

Tip: Panthers by 6.

PANTHER RUMBLINGS

with the Masked Panther

WE ALL FEEL FOR SAM » Heartbreaking news for big forward

Sam McKendry this week with the 28-year-old ruled out for the rest of the season. It’s the third consecutive year that an ACL tear in his right knee has ruined McKendry’s season, and you would have to think his career is now in severe doubt. Panthers boss Phil Gould summed up the feelings of the club’s fan base when he said it was “unbelievably sad news” for the former Test front rower.

“It’s a huge blow for our club as well. Sam really looked like he was getting back to his best,” Gould said.

» McKendry’s injury wasn’t the only

blow to Penrith’s forward stocks last weekend with Tim Browne suffering a ruptured bowel while playing in the ISP on Saturday afternoon. He was rushed from Panthers Stadium to hospital and underwent emergency surgery. The 30-year-old is expected to make a full recovery but it’ll be a long road back to complete health.

» The Panthers should be praised for

their quick and professional response to the claims by Greg Inglis that he was racially abused by a member of the crowd at Panthers Stadium last weekend. CEO Brian Fletcher was straight on the front foot, issuing a statement on Sunday morning indicating the strongest possible response. “I wish to make it clear our club does not tolerate this kind of behaviour in any form. We will work with the NRL to investigate the matter and any perpetrators will be swiftly dealt with,” Fletcher said. “Our club apologises unreservedly to Greg Inglis for the upset caused by the alleged incident.” Penrith officials spent Monday morning reviewing footage in an attempt to track down the member of the crowd responsible. The club is continuing its investigation but it’s believed they’ve narrowed down a likely suspect.

» Still on the unsavoury issue from Sat-

urday, reports in The Daily Telegraph suggesting Panthers utility Tyrone Peachey was also racially abused during the game are totally off the mark. There’s no truth to it whatsoever.

Injured again: Sam McKendry

» We all know how rampant the specula-

tion is about Nathan Cleary potentially joining the Wests Tigers to be coached by his father Ivan, but there’s also been a few whispers around about the Roosters being keen on a Cleary package deal in the coming years. Cooper Cronk is off contract at the end of 2019 and will almost certainly retire, meaning the Roosters will be looking for a quality halfback. Nathan Cleary just happens to be off contract at the same time, while Ivan Cleary will be nearing the end of his tenure with the Tigers. There is no doubt Penrith remains confident of re-signing Nathan, but there’s certainly some nerves around the place and that will be the case until he puts pen to paper.

» Panthers five-eighth James Maloney

has revealed he hasn’t spoken to his former coach Shane Flanagan at the Sharks since the end of last year. Maloney quietly exited the Sharks in the off-season without so much as a farewell phone call from Flanagan.

» Brothers Dallin and Malakai Watene-

Zelezniak hope to launch their new watch range in June. ‘W Zelezniak’ is the brainchild of the footy loving brothers, with Dallin completing a business course last year and Malakai boasting some pretty sharp graphic design skills.

» Meanwhile, Dallin will be out for up to six weeks with a broken jaw.

» He’s got Phil Gould and Trent Merrin

as presidents of his fan club, but Penrith officials know that despite his talent, Jack Hetherington is going to be a handful as he continues to rise through the rugby league ranks. Believed to be on the verge of a first grade debut this year, Hetherington found himself in trouble last weekend in the ISP. Not only was he sin-binned during the game, but he also landed on the charge sheet. He’ll miss two games for a high tackle after his poor judiciary record came into play.

the CMC Rocks festival in Queensland last weekend, cheering the Panthers on to victory over the Rabbitohs.

CONFIDENCE GOT PANTHERS HOME NATHAN TAYLOR @natetaylor87

T

rent Merrin’s incredible act of determination got Penrith back into the game last Saturday against South Sydney, but the former Origin star admits his side can’t be making a habit of falling behind the eight ball.

For the second straight week, the Panthers defied the odds and rallied back from 14 points down in diabolical heat, to go on and defeat the visiting Bunnies 18-14.

Speaking with Extra Time, Merrin credited Penrith coach Anthony Griffin for giving his side plenty of belief during a half-time chat.

“Hook was very calm, just like he was in Round 1,” he said.

“He had full confidence in the team and what we were capable of doing. It was just about regrouping, taking a deep breath and focusing on the second half. ” Following Merrin’s four-pointer, the Panthers laid on two more tries through

Waqa Blake and Tyrone Peachey, to take the lead and notch up their second straight win to the start the year.

Merrin said the ability to be able to come back and win despite the hot conditions was rather remarkable.

“The heat over the last two weeks has been a good test of character for us group of men,” he said.

“It’s definitely a mental challenge out there to keep pushing through, especially in that second half to have the energy and fitness to come out on top two weeks in a row.

“We are all looking forward to a night game this Friday to get away from the sun.”

Penrith will travel up the M4 this afternoon to battle the Canterbury Bulldogs at ANZ Stadium.

Despite being winless to start the year, Merrin said he’s wary of the new-look Bulldogs.

“They are going to come out firing. They are at home coming off two losses, so we’re expecting a massive game through the middle,” he said.

MEET THE MAN BEHIND THE MAGIC NATHAN TAYLOR @natetaylor87

F

ighting through tears, Panthers recruitment manager Jim Jones has opened up for the first time about the impact former Penrith captain and Premiership-winning halfback Craig Gower has had on his life.

In the mid 1990s, Jones signed the then 16-year-old from Colyton to what was regarded as a fairly rich deal at the time.

Jones was taking a calculated risk, but club bosses weren’t so sure about his actions.

“I signed Craig on a bit of money at the time and then the club questioned me as to why I was paying a lot of money for him,” Jones told Extra Time.

“I had to have a meeting to explain myself. I told them he was going to be a very good player and would play NRL. I told them he’ll probably represent, so I think I won that battle.”

Jones’ instinct was spot on. Not only did

Gower become Penrith captain, he played for both his state and country.

Ironically, both Jones and Gower were reunited this week, receiving Life Memberships from the Panthers club.

An emotional Jones choked back tears when asked what it meant to him that he was becoming a Life Member alongside a player that he fought so hard to sign.

“It’s fantastic. I knew his family, his dad was a coach… I’m a bit emotional… my sons reckon I have a soft spot for Gowie because I always followed his career coming through,” Jones said.

“He was a little bull, you could just see how determined he was – he was a winner. He wanted to win every game, win every run, score every try. Gowie had a determined attitude and you knew he was going to be a very good player.”

Now in his 25th year as recruitment guru at Panthers, Jones can be credited for signing some of the biggest players in the game as teenagers including Luke Rooney, Frank Pritchard, Tony Puletua, Luke Lewis, Matt Sing and Brett Mullins.

Jim Jones has been scouting talent for the Panthers for 25 years. Photo: Melinda Jane Even Penrith’s current crop of youngsters have a touch of Jim about them in Dylan Edwards, Isaah Yeo, Reagan Campbell-Gillard, Tyrone May and Dallin Watene-Zelezniak.

“I remember when Dallin was coming through Harold Matthews and I said ‘I better sign you up one day’ and Dallin replied ‘show me the money’,” Jones laughed.

“I signed him for $2000, but he’s worth a lot more now.

“Us recruiters, we don’t have a crystal ball, it’s always a bit of a punt. As the years go by you get better at it.

“I remember seeing James Tedesco as a young fella but you just can’t sign everyone. It’s a judgement thing. Sometimes it’s a bit of a guess, but the more you get right, the better the chance you stay employed.”

Bizarre start to the season is footy at its best

ANDREW VOSS I

feel blessed to say I have called covering rugby league my job for the last three decades.

I have ridden the roller coaster that this sport has felt like it is bound to in all that time.

But let me declare, what I have witnessed over the first two rounds of the 2018 competition is as remarkable a start to a season as I can remember.

And barring the seemingly regular unavoidable injuries to some key players, it’s nearly all positive.

I could not have predicted even half of what has unfolded in terms of results and storylines.

The Panthers’ comebacks, the Knights’ dramatic finishes, the Tigers’ 10-8 winning scorelines that has included the return of Benji Marshall, a thumping Manly victory over Parramatta, the goalpost padding that stopped a Cowboys win, big crowds, milestone games for some of the NRL’s greats and so it goes on.

It has been sensational entertainment and on Fox League we have the privilege of broadcasting the lot.

After just two weeks, five teams are

feeling the heat having recorded back to back losses. In the case of Cronulla and Parramatta, I had them both in my top eight for 2018, yet one will remain winless after this weekend.

The signs are there early that we are all in for a very special season.

Can I finish by also saying a big thank you

to the Penrith fans that attended Panthers Stadium last Saturday night.

The ‘Stand Up, Flags Up’ concept is a huge winner. What a great sight. What a boost to the atmosphere at the game.

It would be hard to believe that it hasn’t played some part in the team’s two remarkable comeback wins so far.

I wouldn’t be surprised if McKendry plays again

JAMIE SOWARD I

was around Sam McKendry for three seasons during my time at the Penrith Panthers, but unfortunately I didn’t get to play too many games with him due to his long history with injury.

When you think of Sam McKendry, immediately you think toughness.

Before all of his recent drams with his knee, you only have to cast your mind back to 2013 when he played on with a broken neck and still had the mental toughness to come back from what was a very serious injury.

For people that don’t know Sam away from the footy field, he’s a very funny albeit rather dry kind of guy. And if Sam doesn’t like you, he’ll tell you to your face.

On the field, Sam is one of those guys you love to play with because if you need a tough carry in the 79th minute, you can pass it to him and you know he’s going to give you a big strong run and a quick play the ball – they are the kind of forwards halves dream of.

I know Sam loves the game, he loves his family and loves pulling on that Panthers jersey.

For Sam, it’ll be hard to give up the game

if this latest injury forces him to. I’m sure the club and his doctors will be looking to do what’s best for him, but I wouldn’t be surprised if he gave it another crack.

Sam’s all about the team and if he manages to come back from three straight ACL injuries, it will be an inspirational effort.

I also want to give a huge wrap to Tyrone Peachey this week for scoring the winning try for Penrith despite spending most of last weekend’s game warming the interchange bench.

The Peachey puzzle is a tricky one. I don’t have any coaching experience but if I was the coach, I’d put him on after 25 minutes and let him just play.

Peachey absolutely dominated that 15-minute period towards the end of the game last week and it wasn’t because the other team was tired and he had fresh legs. He absolutely dominated every time he got the ball, it felt like something was going to happen whenever he had possession.

Peach is a hard puzzle Anthony Griffin will have to solve, but he’s a crowd favourite and one of these utensils that you have

to have in your camping bag because it does everything.

For me, he is one of the most important players in that Panthers squad alongside

NRL CONFIRMS NEXT CHAPTER FOR IMMORTALS » Let the debate begin! NRL Chief Ex-

» Bad news for Roosters fans with

ecutive Todd Greenberg this week announced that up to two additional Immortals will be chosen in 2018. Another six retired stars of the game will be inducted into a new Hall of Fame, joining the ‘100 Greats’ who were named in the Centenary year a decade ago. Up to two players will be added to the Immortals every two years. Importantly, the rules for the Immortals have been altered and players from right back in 1908 can now be included. That will almost certainly spark discussion around Dally Messenger (pictured) being included this year, while other potential candidates include Norm Provan, Darren Lockyer and Mal Meninga.

» Last Saturday night’s clash between

Melbourne and Wests Tigers attracted an incredible 349,000 viewers on Fox League, the most watched game of the year so far. The NRL would be impressed with the crowds and TV ratings for the first two rounds, after criticism of crowd figures early last year.

Daniel Tupou ruled out for the next 10 to 12 weeks with a torn pectoral muscle.

He suffered the injury in last weekend’s clash with the Bulldogs.

» There’s a big test for Tigers fans in

Campbelltown tonight with absolutely no excuse for fans not to come out in force and support the Wests Tigers.

Crowds have been shaky at Campbelltown Stadium in recent years but with the Tigers having won two straight matches against competition heavyweights and the Broncos an appealing side to watch, the ‘house full’ sign should really go up tonight.

However, what happened at Lottoland on Sunday? Just 10,000 fans turned up to watch the traditional rivalry between Manly and Parramatta unfold. We know Sea Eagles fans are too precious to cross the Spit Bridge but are they now adding hot weather to their reasons for not attending footy games?
