This was Billy's first go as a coach (well head coach) anywhere and by all accounts was fucking brilliant at it. Real attention to detail. Also helps that he brought in guys like Cam Smith, JT, and Josh Hannay who appears to be a good coach.
The guy already has a book of plays that most commentators are jealous of, but that coaching team is full of ex elite players too
As for NSW, they may actually go with a regular full time NRL coach this time. They are all guessing.
Agree with Edwards and Yeo being the glue for Penrith.
Interestingly for all the talk of SJ, Gus Gould suggested his player of the year was Tohu Harris..similarly with Penrith when SJ and Tohu weren't playing we weren't nearly as effective

Fitter never struck me as being "cerebral" enough to be a coach. He may have matured but he was essentially a very laid back bogan who lucked out in the talent department (first grade at 17) and was happy to coast on that.
I always considered it a real shame that Peter Sterling never became a coach. Maybe the fact he never gave it a shot is a reflection on him not having the stones? Or maybe the Channe 9 gig is so sweet he'd have been made to give it up.

Re Sterlo: Why take on the pressure?

For sure. He's had the best life. It's just a shame that we never got to see what he could bring as a coach.

I'm not a big league guy, but I'm looking forward to this. It's farking hot here in Sydders today today, probably still be in the 30's for the game apparently. Last 20 minutes will see some pretty tired lads.
My care factor for this took a huge drop from the time of that uncalled blatant forward pass last week.
Will probably have it on while arguing with fools like us on the internet.
I also saw some Kiwis discussion that has pissed me off. DWZ has gone to Tonga. Fuck him and his stupid 1980s hori haircut. We also have no hooker as Smith and Marshall King are injured, that blond dude from Newcastle who is apparently a Kiwi is also injured, and guys that could fill in like Kodi Nikorima and Te Maire Martin are unavailable.

The opening 18 minutes has been played at a hell of a pace.
Broncos too many errors so only fitting that Penrith get the first try off yet another error.Come on Broncos!
Despite the fact they'e getting through most of their sets the Panthers handling has been average, lots of inaccurate passes.
Herbie should have just caught that ball.

Fucking Penrith do not make errors

@mariner4life Brisbane do though

They’re immune to being penalised too, by the looks of things.
