South Sydney lose most in-form player as Panthers win six straight



CommBank Stadium: Wayne Bennett has been coaching for 40 years, but this year’s shocking and relentless run of injuries at South Sydney surely has to be a first.

Souths’ casualty ward somehow grew again on Friday night when prop Keaon Koloamatangi – arguably the club’s best player this season – hobbled off the field with a right ankle midway through the second half against Panthers.

Koloamatangi reeled out of a tackle against the Panthers, clutched at his right ankle, hobbled back into the defensive line, but was quickly assisted from the field.

Two minutes later, hooker Peter Mamouzelos came from the field for a head injury assessment, which he later failed.

“Pete will be out for a week at least because of concussion and Keaon’s got an ankle problem – we just don’t know how bad it is,” Bennett said.

“It’s just the way it’s going at the moment. We’ll see how long he’s out for.”

When asked who was expected back next week, Bennett smiled and said: “I’m not game to ask. I hate being disappointed.”

Penrith triumphed 30-10 and did well despite resting stars Nathan Cleary and Isaah Yeo. Brian To’o was given a 20-minute early mark after clutching at his left quad, but the winger appeared to be moving freely on the CommBank Stadium sideline.

The Panthers made it six wins on the trot. They have a sense of timing about them. Not only will their strike weapons return, including backrower Liam Martin, in the coming weeks, but the likes of Dylan Edwards, who ran for almost 300m against the Bunnies and bagged a double, is incapable of playing a bad game.
