5 GF's in a row doesn't rate a mention?This is 100% true.
The answer is Bellamy, because he's the best coach, and daylight is second. But he probably won't win it. But he should.
To be fair, you can make a case for Ciraldo when the Dogs have only conceded 389 points all year, narrowly second behind the Panthers. That's pretty outstanding. He's done pretty well with a roster that isn't elite.
Players that have departed Penrith since 2021 and he has maintained the standards.
Burton, Capewell, Naden, Momirovski, May, Jennings, Katoa, Hopgood, Kikau, O’Sullivan, Staines, Koroisau, Cogger, Hosking, Leniu, Salmon & Crichton.
While I'm no Panthers fan, what Cleary has done whilst losing the above players is nothing short of extraordinary. It has to be Cleary with Bellyache a close second.
