That should put the Cleary is shit in the finals myth to bed.
In 2020 the merkin scored a hat trick and kick the field goal that ultimately won the game over Roosters in the finals.

In 2021 he played with one arm and led Panthers to a premiership winning a CCM.

He has dominated many big games. One loss and suddenly he's written off again though

Talk the star halfback out of any team mid match in a tight contest and they lose

expect for the tigers they actually improve when Brooks and Douehi aren’t playing

Your star half back got the spoon playing a heap of games.

Remember when he got likened to Mitch Pearce in Origin games?

Job far from done but it feels really good that we’ve put the ‘we can’t win against Eels myth’ and the ‘we can’t dominate a finals game’ myth to bed.

Eels forwards lost their groove.
Someone could tell me that the Penrith players were all Westworld-style robots/hosts and I wouldn't be surprised

They are in a different realm of fitness and conditioning to the other 15 teams
They do a lot of muscle memory stuff, game replication.
