Brandy Alexander recaps the 2023 NRL Grand Final - SEN BREAKFAST

[@Bluepr1nt23]

Saw Brandy at Panthers after the game. The man was absolutely mangled and having the time of his life. Good for you, Brandy. Earned it.

[@dogsquadstorm6861]

Let me remind you, 4 years ago, and an extra 5 minutes, the Panthers would've run down my beloved Storm⚡, and this would've been their 4th Premiership! I hate to say it, but I totally agree, this is the best Team of the Modern Era!!! Best Team won, but I think the new Rivalry of these 2 Teams have begun... Congrats Panthers!🐆

Yeah and less 5 mins this GF and we wouldn't even be talking about the Panthers

The rivalry is finished, Broncos had their shot. Without a fit Reynolds they aren't even a top 8 team.

My kids were crying. Yes I admit my heart sunk but I stayed positive all I kept saying was there’s 20mins left anything could happen and what do you know. 3 PEAT BABY. UP THE MIGHTY PANTHERS🏆🏆🏆

[@user-oj9sv4vx6o]

A mate in Brisvegas rang me when Ezra scored his 2nd., I said we had time, he laughed as Ezra scored his 3rd, I hung up saying there is still time. I wasn't confident but I was right.

[@ianchant2317]

I thought Crichton was a contender for Man of the match … strong for 80 minutes but I get the Cleary decision. One thing that might have gone unnoticed because of other things Nathan Cleary did was in the 64th minute when 10 points adrift, he attempted and was successful in kicking a 40/20 on the THIRD tackle. Who has the balls to take that risk in that situation? A champion does. 3 minutes after the kick Crichton scores to make it 24-20. BTW who gave the final pass to put Crichton over? Cleary. Oh and then he bangs over the conversation from wide out.

[@dbo4506]

He made a try saving cover tackle in that period as well. He was in every thing.

[@pavvyyyd8476]

Also when Cleary scored his premiership winning try, not many noticed sorenson ran through the line and when Cleary stepped back on the inside sorenson sprinted back towards the Penrith goal line to prevent any obstruction which Walsh 100% would of done. The brains all through that Penrith squad is immense

[@SlaintheMhath]

And Cleary had a strained MCL in his knee because of a Hass hip drop in the 10th minute.

[@pantherz9103]

Still on a high even over a week after the triumph 🖤 I still can’t quite believe how we won from 24-8 down, just a phenomenal comeback 🐆🐆🐆

[@OldPanther]

The reason you can ease off on penalties in the biggest games is because they maintain the standard all year. Its best two teams in a single game you couldnt officiate like that all year itd become a total mess with clubs deliberately breaking rules for an advantage.

[@dododoodoodo5400]

Brandy i been panther since birth and I thought we were done wow

[@lorih2249]

The refs didn’t sway the game at all. It was finally an honest fair game. The whole season had me thinking the refs were betting on the games and I expected that with this game. But it was a nice change to see the teams played each other and not the refs.

[@geomet1311]

[@AHuri505]

2019 everyone wanted to get rid of the Cleary’s And Crichton, Cogger and Spencer will be sorely missed

[@AlphaKingz4114]

This is the best team of the modern era by far. To think how young alot of these star players are, and how many more impactful years their foward pack still has left in the tank and lets not forget the halves and how many more years of domination they could produce, i think its fair to say the debate is over. Also, is it to early to put Nathan Cleary in the conversation of the greatest half back? Like is it actually? State of origin champion, 3 premierships back to back like lets be real, hes the goat at 25 years old!

[@R-vl9ue]

The Melbourne Storm have been a 25 year dynasty! The Melbourne Storm don't even miss the finals. Fair enough the Panthers deserve credit for three years.. although they would have lost the 2021 year too Nelson Got a try taken off him... I have watched it enough to know that reff blunder cost the preliminary final for the Storm! Talk about the Storm cheating! When all clubs do it...and the incompetent reffs!

[@AlphaKingz4114]

@R-vl9ue yeah but the whole cheating the salary cap thing, having a title taken away because of it definitely puts a massive cloud over there greatness like lets be real. What's so great about the Panthers is that, just like craig bellamy and the storm, it started way back when they decided to pump up there junior footy all them years ago and put there dollars into developing there own stars. Now it seams we are at the point where due to their success and everybody's trade/market value going up, players are now in the position to having to either sacrifice to stay amongst it or move on and take the money. Let's hope they dont do a "Melbourne storm" and cheat there way out of it

[@R-vl9ue]

@@AlphaKingz4114 yes but you don't know the real truth! My AFL team like all the NRL club's were caught over the Cap! But didn't cost premierships...An American basket baller that lived in Melbourne and worked for Sen in Melbourne Steve sailsbury on radio and played.. went back to the state's and heard about it! Rang Sen and said NFL teams even just get fined! Gallop is responsible for this joke! Google it all NRL clubs and probably AFL clubs have been over! Even Gus Gould blasted Gallop on the footy show! Even after that the Storm still are up there winning premierships! And in the finals every friggen year!

[@R-vl9ue]

I would be putting my money on Bellamy's last year being another premiership to the legendary Melbourne Storm!

[@leighcouper4594]

Adam Reynold's short kick offs cost Brisbane the Grand Final. The first one cost them 6 points. the next one 2 points. At half time they should have been up 6 nil. Silly boy.

[@chrisedlibi8865]

Yelp, and the poor completion rate in the first half took a lot out of the Broncos as it was noticeable in the final 20 minutes as the Panthers were making easy yards.

[@dbo4506]

Walshys two 7 tackle sets had more impact. Short drop out or not panthers still were getting the ball in good attack. Walsh walked them down the field twice.

[@apelismathews6646]

That was their game plan...

[@simeonkorihio779]

Absolutely right. 8 points scored from bad drop kick options. Broncos gave those 8 points to Penrith on a golden plate. With wishful thinking , Broncos could have gone to half time break 6 points up.

[@safarijoejnr534]

To be fair the first one Farnworth should of just caught the ball

[@homestarronny]

at half time I was telling anyone that would listen, this is a BAD scoreline for the Panthers. with their dominance, they should have been ahead by more. But in the end they were fine, and an absolute classic grand final it was, but the Panthers EASILY could have lost that one. Even something little like Reece Walsh making no effort to get back into the field of play after Turuva hit him and kind of rolled over. Walsh laid there and Crichton came and finished the job off and only just got him into the in goal. If Walsh was smarter he could have at the very least rolled further upfield and broncos probably go on to win.

[@flimflama9333]

There wasn't many blatant ruck infringements, but plenty of 50/50s that get called in other games.. Can't deny that letting games flow like that is great for the fans, But it favours the panthers style of game.

[@DMGC529]

as long as it goes both ways Im happy for those soft 50/50 calls to be ignored as they were in the GF. It was so much better.

[@flimflama9333]

@DMGC529 yeah even as a broncos fan I agree, but would be ideal if the gap of difference between the most lenient and most harsh games was a lot closer than it is in general..

[@Whistler112]

If Reynolds had done what he was there for, and kept leading them around, zipping passes and playing footy when they were up, you would be celebrating instead of clutching at ref excuses. Reynolds fucked up big time and he knows it.

[@flimflama9333]

@Whistler112 that's a little harsh.. I understand what Ur saying and to a degree it's fair to say he didn't have the best game, but the whole team was gassed, players were making errors, missing tackles, repeat sets.. Ultimately some responsibility is his as captain to own but without his presence over the last 24 months we aren't even close to making a gf imo.

[@flimflama9333]

@Whistler112 the game was lost in first 30 minutes, 44% completions and by 80 mins 11-1 errors. Anyside who comes up with then numbers against a side like panthers will be red lining in the last 10 mins

[@allworldmusic8270]

Unless something unforeseen happens these two teams will meet again in the Grand Final next year.

[@SkeletorsSon]

Giving away offside penalties during a GF is far more impactful than a regular season game which keeps them behind the line and not going early, relaxing the rules like that won't work during the regular season

A real shame that the refereeing was non existent in the Grand Final! Also a real shame that the Panthers weren't disqualified from the 2021 finals series when their trainer illegally stopped the game when the opposition had momentum 5 metres out from their try line when the Panthers were leading by 2 points! Again another diabolical refereeing display that saw the Panthers progress and later win the premiership. It shouldn't be 3 peat but 3 cheat

[@anthonymiller6081]

@@JohnOniana Mate your so far left field your out of grounds! I'm not a Bronco supporter although I must say they were the better team for 65 minutes of the game. The refereeing was diabolical and practically non existent. 1 ruck infringement penalty in an 80 minute game is unbelievable! Go over the past 2 years of Rugby League games and see if you can find 1 game where in 80 minutes there was only 1 ruck infringement penalty of 6 again given? Good luck you'll need it! Penrith players were offside most of the game ( no penalties) attempted crusher ( no penalty) high shots ( no penalty) forward pass led to the Leota try (no penalty) and yet the Panthers get a penalty given to them for a ruck infringement with 4 minutes to go 5 metres out from the Broncos try line and 4 points behind on the scoreboard! Mate if that's not a clear set up then my name is Donald Trump! The game of Rugby League is no longer a game for equal teams anymore. It's tainted by the greed for $$$$$$$ end of story.
