Penrith v Panthers
15-09-24
Final score - 41-5

Penrith panthers


On Sunday, the Panthers made the journey to Penrith for their first league clash of the season, eager to showcase their hard work and determination. From the whistle, it was evident that the match would be a physically demanding game, with both teams applying significant pressure on one another.

The first half saw Penrith strike early, scoring their first try within 20 minutes, quickly followed by a second try. As the half-time whistle blew, the score stood at 12-0 in favour of Penrith. Despite the score, the Panthers remained focused and committed, gearing up for a stronger performance in the second half.

As the second half commenced, the Panthers were fired up and ready to make their mark. However, Penrith managed to break through the Panthers' defence a few more times, extending their lead. With the Panthers fighting back our flanker Nesha Wood made a decisive move, breaking through the defence with our new winger, Joanne Clayton, in support. Wood's effort paid off, resulting in a try for the Panthers and bringing the score to 31-5.

Penrith continued to add more tries to their tally before the final whistle blew, concluding the match with a score of 41-5 in favour of the home team.  While the final score may not reflect the effort put in by the Panthers, the team's determination and focus remained unwavering until the very end. The players displayed great resilience and a strong team spirit, which will undoubtedly serve them well in future matches.

Recognizing individual performances, the Forward of the Match award went to Sheona McIntyre for her outstanding contributions in the pack, while the Back of the Match was awarded to Joanne Clayton for her crucial support play on the wing. The Captain, Steph Gicquel, also received recognition as the opposition's player of the match, highlighting her leadership and tenacity on the field.

Despite the challenging result, the Panthers are ready to regroup and build on the positives from this match as they prepare for the upcoming fixtures in the league. The season is just beginning, and the Panthers are determined to rise to the challenge ahead!
