Our top 4 aspirations were severely dented thanks to Klein/poor defence in the Newcastle game. It is still a possibility, however we are now reliant on other results falling our way. A win against the Pathers puts us within one game of the top 4.

All we can do is continue to build and worry about our own game.

Biggest game of the season. If we can't get up for this then we don't deserve to be in the top 8.

Finals start this week.

Very interesting how the final 3 weeks fixtures have turned out given we have the Panthers and Roosters in the next fortnight who were trying to dislodge their place in the top 4.

As mentioned all we can do is keep winning and if we can i think we're still a pretty decent shot for a top 4 spot given how it pans out for the other 2 teams. All 3 teams have a tough run home so lets hope we can knock them both off and the Warriors also do a number on both of them. It's gonna be an absolute roller coaster made much harder due to the Newcastle game we were ripped.

Us: Penrith and Roosters (A), Broncos (H).
Penrith: Us (H), Manly (A) Warriors (H)
Roosters: Warriors (A) Us (H) Souths (H)

Panthers have lost just one game at home this season, however Storm are strong favourites according to the bookies.

[riders of the storm]

Segeyaro's been ruled out apparently. Huge blow for Penrith.

What a win by the roosters geez they have hit top form at the right time, it's gunna be a massive challenge for us to beat them in Sydney

No different to Cowboys v Souths last night. You have to ensure you turn up to play. Anyone can beat anyone at the moment.

Moors is out and Weston is in (Bench)

[brisbanestorm]

Would much rather see Garbutt than Weston if Moors is out. Especially after the stats people have been posting here the last few weeks

[bula]

Yeah I'm not really a Weston fan. Not much impact for a man his size.
Garbutt adds punch and skill to the pack and would love him in the side.

[Scooter]

Weston hasn't had a lot of chances in first grade at Storm. He has looked quite good the few times I have seen him in NSW Cup. Plus the Panthers are one of his former teams so hopefully he gets a reasonable opportunity and takes it with both hands.

[Brian]

James seggys father has passed away in PNG He has gone back for a few weeks.

[sallymay]

Panthers and NRL have confirmed James will not play today due to the death of his father
