NRL: BRONCOS v PANTHERS - Boyd still out!

FINALS WEEK 2

The Penrith Panthers have made their way to Brisbane, to take on the Broncos in a Friday night blockbuster at Suncorp Stadium.

The Bronco's lost by 2 points to the Roosters in a thriller last week - however they were without their Captain and Fullback Darius Boyd. Well news out today is thatBoyd has ruled himself out again - hamstring injury.


Boyd out!

Nikorima will be back at Fullback and crowd favourite Benji M will start again in the number 7 jersey.

The Panthers on the other hand are at full strength and are raring to go after their 22:10 win over Manly last week - and their beards and mustaches are being groomed to intimidate.

We at Community News however fear that the Panthers will need more than facial hair to defeat a Bennett coached Bronco's team at Suncorp, Boyd or no Boyd.

However the Bronco's are currently $1.45 favourites - and they are far from a sure thing. Were the odds on the Panthers to blow out a little further from $2.85 (say to $3.00) they might just be worth the flutter.

The Panthers have been strong finishers this season - if they can stay within striking distance with 15 minutes to go - expect fireworks!

Brisbane win 25 - 18

Milford to get man of the match and a 2nd half try.

Going with heart again B! Panthers to take down Broncs convincingly - 24:10 - Wallace to lead the way and take out MoM.

Was able to get $2.90.

Good luck man. I thought the Broncos were very unlucky last week....while the Panthers probably got the game gifted to them by the refs. But hey, this is NRL so anything can happen :)

This is all true B - but if your not living on the edge mate, you're simply taking up too much space!
