He’s on the verge of becoming one of the greatest players in NRL history, but Nathan Cleary has revealed how grand final heartbreak and the ability to ignore criticism helped him get there.
Soaring temperatures and fire warnings are in store for parts of the country this weekend as Australians gear up for dangerous weather.
Stephen Crichton has achieved more by the age of 23 than some players will in a lifetime. And on Sunday, he’s looking to do something out of this world.
Nathan Cleary and Dylan Edwards played for the Junior Kangaroos seven years ago, and there’s a strong chance they will represent Australia again next month.
Panthers players have grown used to winning comps, but grand final week is completely new to Luke Garner who was stuck with the wooden spoon just 12 months ago.
Jarome Luai is a firm believer in what happens on the field, stays on the field. And he says rivalries with opposition stars is great for the game.
The Broncos have been dealt a massive injury scare five days out from the grand final with a star failing to finish training due to injury.
Jarome Luai will soon have to choose between earning an extra $2 million or staying at his beloved Penrith Panthers as rivals circle.
James Fisher-Harris is a man of few words, but his actions speak volumes and it’s why Ivan Cleary is backing his star prop to lead the Kiwis.
Jarome Luai made a stunning return from a dislocated shoulder to help Penrith reach another grand final, but the injury could force him out of Samoa’s end of season Tests.

Call in the heavy artillery. Grand final spots are on the line this weekend and NRL coaches are taking big risks by backing top guns with injuries.
He’ll be the most important player on the park on Friday night, but there’s a world in which Dylan Edwards could have been lost to Penrith after a shocking night against the Storm in Bathurst.

Nathan Cleary has sent a huge scare through the Panthers after the star halfback was sent to hospital just days before the preliminary final.

The Warriors are the feel-good story of the NRL this season but the two-time defending premiers didn’t care about the fairytale at all.
The Panthers have been dealt a massive blow with a key member of their squad ruled out of their game against the Warriors.
They made their NRL debuts together four years ago, but Spencer Leniu and Stephen Crichton are now preparing for their final home game in Penrith.
Penrith have wrapped up a third minor premiership in four years but Panthers fullback Dylan Edwards was left baffled by a personal shout out.
Penrith have gone back-to-back and secured the minor premiership for the second year in a row, and have messed up their closest rivals in the process.
The minor premiership and the signature of a star playmaker are the two things Penrith coach Ivan Cleary is after.
Cameron Ciraldo has been criticised for his coaching style, but the Bulldogs mentor has received staunch support from a Panthers star.
Jarome Luai has avoided surgery and could make a shock return in the finals, but his replacement is confident he can step up.
