TROY DODDS

n any other season, injuries to Jarome Luai, Stephen Crichton and Mitch Kenny just six weeks out from the Finals, before a crucial match with arch rivals Parramatta, would have had disaster written all over it. But this is 2022 and with Penrith four wins clear on top of the competition ladder, it is instead an opportunity and a much-needed challenge. There is no question about Penrith’s Premiership credentials. No question about a top four finish and a home Final. No question that the players out this week will come back. Therefore, the need to constantly win each week in the same way, with the same players, simply isn’t there. Sure, it’s fun to keep piling on the points, but Ivan Cleary is surely running out of things to learn in this dream run.

BROADCAST CHANNEL 9 FOX LEAGUE ABC 702 2GB 873

FRIDAY, JULY 29 | 7.55PM | COMMBANK STADIUM | REFEREE: TODD SMITH The opportunity to play a crucial match against a fellow Premiership hopeful with a few forced changes can only be a good thing. It’s also a chance for Cleary to tinker with his bench rotation. I’ve never been convinced that running Kenny on as a middle forward mid-way through the second half is Penrith’s best use of the number 14, but that’s why I’m writing about footy and not coaching it. Still, the chance to try new things, new rotations and new methods will be one I have no doubt Cleary will relish. I’m not convinced the team named on Tuesday, however, will be the one that runs out on Friday night. I’d suggest some late changes, including the return of Moses Leota and possibly an NRL debut, are likely. Penrith’s defence again came to the fore last week, denying the Sharks a second half point

in what was in the end a scrappy, hard fought 20-10 win. It was probably just the kind of victory the Panthers needed. This Friday night’s game against Parramatta shapes as the game of the round, with the Eels desperate to prove their Premiership credentials, while the Panthers would be keen to get one back on their western Sydney rivals after Brad Arthur’s men beat them earlier this season; still Penrith’s only loss this year. After their dramatic Finals game last year, there’s no doubt that the Panthers v Eels rivalry has stepped up a gear, and Parramatta could argue they have Penrith’s measure in some areas. Putting that to bed would be a huge physiological advantage for Ivan Cleary and the Panthers, particularly given they are destined to meet at some point in September.

PANTHERS

The Eels were disappointing against Brisbane last weekend, and it’s not the first time this season they’ve had a significant period of lost concentration that ultimately cost them the game. If such an occurrence happens this Friday night, there’s no question the Panthers will make them pay. As much as the Eels would now rate their chances with Penrith’s injured trio missing, as long as Nathan Cleary and Issah Yeo are running the show, I have total faith that the Panthers will get the job done. With the Origin hangover now gone, it’s time for a statement victory for Penrith against a fellow top eight side – and this may just be it. I’m expecting a high scoring, yet generally close encounter. Tip: Panthers by 6.

WITH THE MASKED PANTHER

LUAI’S SANDWICH SHOP REVEAL !

Sandwich shop’s breaking news: It was the innocent photo put up by a local sandwich shop after an impromptu visit from some players, but it sparked plenty of conversation and rumours this week. When Penrith stars Api Koroisau, Jarome Luai and Viliame Kikau called in to Murrays Sandwich Shop on Monday, the staff were naturally excited and posted some pics on their Facebook page. But keen observers noted a knee brace on Luai – sparking fears he’d done some real damage at a crucial time of the season. As it turns out, Luai is facing around six weeks on the sideline. However, he’s definitely on track for a Finals return.

Sorensen’s record: Interchange forward Scott Sorensen has secured himself a slice of Panthers history. He has been involved in 25 consecutive wins, a record for any Penrith player in the history of the club. He beats out Spencer Leniu with 23 straight wins and Isaah Yeo with 21.

Spotted: Tony and Frank Puletua at the Chairman’s Lounge for last week’s game between Penrith and Cronulla.

Spotted: Panthers Director Greg Alexander, who also works with Fox Sports and SEN, meeting with Wests Tigers officials in Sydney last week, alongside leading NRL commentator Andrew Voss. The major talking point out of the lunch was that Vossy showed up in a moving truck – which he parked in a nearby loading zone.

Ciraldo given deadline: The Panthers don’t want speculation and uncertainty about Cameron Ciraldo’s future to spill into their preparations for the 2023 season, and have given him a November 1 deadline to commit to the club or confirm his departure. Should Ciraldo decide to stick with Penrith as an assistant next year, he will see the 2023 season through – there won’t be any mid-season switches. The Bulldogs remain supremely confident they’ve landed Ciraldo, but an individual with close knowledge of the situation told me this week that the deal was “far from done”.

Wallace has player support: With Andrew Webster on the move at season’s end to take up the head coaching role at the Warriors, Penrith is on the lookout for at least one new assistant. Panthers rookie Soni Luke believes his NSW Cup coach, Peter Wallace (pictured below), should get the vacant gig next year. “Definitely, for sure,” Luke said last week. “A lot of our reserve grade stuff is just based off what first grade is doing anyway. He would be a good fit for the attacking coach role or whatever role there is in the top-grade squad.” Luke also made the cheeky remark that Penrith better tie down Wallace soon before “somewhere else looks to grab him”.

The photo that revealed Jarome Luai’s injury.

Listen ear: Stephen Crichton had surgery on his injured ear on Monday, after that frightening incident involving Cronulla’s Dale Finucane on Saturday night. The damage to Crichton’s ear was so confronting that Instagram put up a ‘sensitive content’ warning on Nathan Cleary’s post featuring the injury.

Locals love 2GB: There’s no doubt that the Continuous Call Team remains extremely popular, with a huge crowd heading down to the Basement Sports Bar at Panthers to watch the show’s live broadcast last weekend. Panthers CEO Brian Fletcher and champion hooker Royce Simmons both joined the show live. Former Panther Darryl ‘The Big Marn’ Brohman was clearly the most popular team member on the day – he was flooded with selfie and autograph requests, which he granted between meals.

Spotted: A bunch of Panthers players at American rapper Jack Harlow’s Sydney concert on Monday night. The boys had a great time – and were able to catch up with Harlow afterwards (pictured below).

0 weeks into the NRL season and Parramatta are still the only team to inflict pain and disappointment on Penrith and their fans this year. That night on May 6 still stings, not just because it was Penrith’s first and only loss of the season but because it came against their slimy arch rivals from up the M4. Matt Eisenhuth – funnily enough a Parramatta Eels junior – still remembers that Round 9 clash at BlueBet Stadium, where Penrith lost 22-20, like it was yesterday. “They are the only team to beat us this year, I know I definitely remember that,” he admitted to Extra Time. “Looking back on that game, I remember it was a game that we could’ve won, but we let ourselves down. “Of course, that loss stings, any loss stings, but the fact that it was to them maybe makes it sting a little bit for some.” Eisenhuth played his junior rugby league with the Wentworthville Magpies before being signed by the Eels. He played with Parramatta’s NYC team from 2010 to 2012 before graduating to their NSW Cup feeder team in 2013. Midway through the 2013 season, Eisenhuth was released by the Eels and linked up with the Panthers to play reserve grade before signing with the Wests Tigers in 2016. While Eisenhuth hasn’t played in the Blue &

Gold for a decade, he does remember the strong rivalry the clubs have for one another from way back then. “When I think back to it, there was always something extra in games against Penrith, but it wasn’t something I bought too much into,” he admitted. “These days, the games between Penrith and Parramatta are still pretty big occasions. The Battle of the West is always built up as a good clash and over the last couple of years they’ve been two teams up the top of the ladder and always competitive. “They’ve had some good clashes in the past and I’m sure it’ll be another good clash this Friday night.” For the second consecutive week, the 29-year-old has been named to start at prop for tonight’s encounter at CommBank Stadium. With fellow forward Moses Leota touch and go to return from a hand injury, Eisenhuth – who has played 12 NRL games this year – is relishing playing so much first grade. “I’m stoked! It’s the best team in the comp and there’s a lot of good players that aren’t in the 17 that could fit into most NRL teams,” he said. “It’s competition for spots and I’m always going to be competing hard to be in that best 17. “That’s where I want to be. I’m happy I’m there and hopefully I can stay there.” Eisenhuth is off contract at season’s end and remains hopeful of securing a new deal with the club beyond this year. At the moment, he’s letting his footy do the talking.

CLEARY: WE’RE READY FOR CHALLENGE

Nathan Cleary leads Penrith out against Cronulla last weekend. Photo: NRL Images.

NATHAN TAYLOR

hey may be a similar age and grew up in the same circles, but Friday night will mark the first time Nathan Cleary and Sean O’Sullivan have played a rugby league game together. With Cleary’s regular halves partner Jarome Luai succumbing to a knee injury, 23-year-old O’Sullivan will get another shot in first grade in tonight’s Battle of the West blockbuster at CommBank Stadium. While O’Sullivan has filled in for Cleary on five occasions this season, this will be the first time the Dolphins-bound half will play fiveeighth in place of the injured Luai. Speaking with Extra Time on Wednesday afternoon, Cleary said he can’t wait to partner up with O’Sullivan for the next few weeks. “I don’t think I’ve ever played with Sully before. We were in the SG Ball team together – him, Romey and I – and I’ve always been around him, but it’ll be cool to actually play with him now and on the big stage too,” Cleary said. “Sully’s been a great asset to our team this year, just filling in where he can, and even around training and stuff like that. I’m really looking forward to playing alongside him.” O’Sullivan remains undefeated playing first grade for the Panthers this year and has been the perfect replacement for whenever Cleary has been unavailable. Cleary said while their haircuts are certainly similar, they also share quite a few other things in common as well. “I think we share a similar footy brain of our understanding of the game, so it’s always cool to chat footy with him and it’ll be fun to play with him now also,” he said.

“The boys always give it to him about his haircut but he reckons I copied his.” While Penrith definitely wanted to keep O’Sullivan beyond this year, he will be on the move in 2023 when he links up with Wayne Bennett’s Dolphins in Redcliffe. O’Sullivan signed a three-year deal last month to be the Dolphins’ starting half in their historic maiden season.

“It’s always sad when you lose people, especially good blokes like Sully,” Cleary said. “The job he has done this year has been invaluable – not only on the field but off the field as well. He’s great for the culture and stuff like that. “He was sad to leave but it’s something he’s got to do for his own career, and I

think everyone understands that.” While O’Sullivan’s experience and success around the team softens the blow of Luai’s injury a tad, there’s no denying that the defending Premiers will miss what the champion NSW Blues five-eighth does bring to the side. Luai’s try in the dying minutes of Penrith’s win against the Sharks last weekend only emphasised his x-factor status. Cleary said Penrith’s lofty position on top of the NRL ladder means that Luai can take the time to recover, knowing that Finals footy awaits. “It’s disappointing obviously but I think we’re in a pretty lucky position where we can give him time to try and get his knee right,” Cleary said. “I think it’s a great opportunity for Sully as well to come in. He’s done a great job every time he’s filled in this year and I’m really looking forward to playing alongside him.” While Luai is expected to miss up to six weeks, Penrith will also be without Blues centre Stephen Crichton (ear) and utility Mitch Kenny (knee) after the pair were also injured against the high-flying Sharks. After being quite lucky in the injury department this season, Penrith are starting to feel the pinch. Cleary knows that it’s all part of the roller coaster ride of an NRL season, and he sees the positives in the situation. “It sucks, you know, but it’s all part of footy. To be fair, we’ve been pretty lucky with our injuries so far this year,” Cleary said. “It’s a great challenge for us to step up and good opportunities for guys like Rob [Jennings] and Sully to show their cut out for it. “I’m looking forward to seeing how they go on Friday.”

FOUR OF THE BEST: PANTHERS V EELS ALWAYS DELIVER A CLASSIC I

lang on

league with Peter Lang

2011: Panthers 23 Eels 22. Round 19. Luke Walsh kicked a thrilling golden point field goal to give Penrith a heart-stopping victory in extra time. That was after Lachlan Coote scored the equalising try just as the full-time buzzer sounded to signal the end of regulation time. What made the game more heartbreaking for the Eels was the fact it was also Nathan Hindmarsh’s 300th first grade game.

t’s the Battle of the West, big brother versus little brother. One thing is certain, it doesn’t matter where on the ladder Penrith or Parramatta sit, this one is always a ‘ding-dong’ affair which often goes down to the wire. Throw away the script which has the Panthers as clear favourites with the bookies to win the match on Friday and expect the unexpected. The one thing you can bank on is that, over the years, there have been some colossal battles between the two sides. Here are my ‘Top Four Favourite Matches of the Noughties’ between these two sides, of course all four are Penrith victories but not by much, which makes them all the sweeter. 2021: Panthers 8 def Eels 6. Semi Finals. Played at a breakneck pace for the full 80 minutes, both sides defended their backsides off in an absorbing Finals encounter. Defence was the order of the day with neither side giving an inch. One of the lowest scoring but best Finals games of recent times. To be honest, I thought had Eels prop Junior Paulo not dropped the ball on the third tackle with less than a minute on the clock, the Eels probably would have won this one in Queensland.

The Panthers celebrate their Finals win in 2021. Photo: NRL Images.

2016: Panthers 20 def Eels 18. Round 5. The Eels were leading 18-12 after 75 minutes before two quick late tries to Penrith saw the Panthers steal the match after Jamie Soward kicked the ball across field, Waqa

Blake batted the ball back to Bryce Cartwright who twisted and turned and crashed his way over the tryline, just as the full-time hooter sounded. What made this last second thriller even more enjoyable was that it was at Parramatta.

2009: Panthers 38 Eels 34. Round 17. A see-sawing affair at Penrith Stadium saw the lead change multiple times during another absorbing contest. The Eels looked to have the game won with only two minutes left on the clock. That’s when Michael Jennings came alive for the Panthers and set youngster Junior Tia-Kilifi over for the match-winning try. The home crowd of course went nuts as another ‘w’ was recorded for the Pennys. So folks, get ready, get set, because another chapter in this Battle of the West will again be written on Friday night at CommBank Stadium. I can hardly wait for kick-off at 7.55pm.

PANTHERS PILE ON THE POINTS IN LOWER GRADE COMPETITIONS T

lower grades report with Lachlan Jeffery @LachlanJeffery

he Penrith Panthers have returned to the Knock-On Effect NSW Cup winner’s circle in emphatic fashion, thrashing the Blacktown Workers Sea Eagles 48-6 at HE Laybutt Reserve. Jack Cole starred in the absence of Kurt Falls and Sean O’Sullivan, scoring 20 points from a try and eight goals, as well as setting up three other tries. Daeon Amituanai scored each of the first two tries, first finishing off a simple shift to the left, then supporting Lindsay Smith after Soni Luke put him into space. They scored again minutes later when Thomas Jenkins finished off another left edge movement. Charlie Staines got involved from fullback just before halftime to add another try and open up a 24-0 lead. The Panthers lost Sunia Turuva to the sin bin early in the second half, however it didn’t hurt them as they again scored down their left-hand side, this time through Preston Riki after he ran onto a good ball from Cole. Cole scored the next try himself straight off the back of a scrum in prime attacking position.

Luke added his name to the scoresheet when his grubber ricocheted back to him to score under the posts. Chris Smith scored after he was put into space by Cole before a late Blacktown try to Pio Seci brought the final score to 48-6. It was a similar story in Jersey Flegg as Penrith beat Manly 44-10, a crushing victory at a crucial time. Keegan Russell-Smith scored first as the Panthers opened up a 6-0 lead in as many minutes, before Manly hit back through Sanele Aukusitino. Penrith took the lead back in the 19th minute when Hohepa Puru crashed over following repeat sets. A pair of William Fakatoumafi tries either side of half-time gave the Panthers a 22-6 lead, before a tryscoring blitz saw Addison Williams, Isaiah Iongi (twice) and Aston Warwick all score within 11 minutes of each other, before Kaeo Weekes scored a consolation try for Manly in the dying seconds. In round 20, the Panthers travel to Parramatta and Kellyville to tackle the Eels in KOE Cup and Jersey Flegg respectively.
