  • Coach Ivan Cleary admitted "something wrong with it" regarding the foot injury after Cleary told a physio "my foot is f***ed" and deferred the final conversion to Dylan Edwards.
  • Penrith advances to a seventh straight Preliminary Final at Accor Stadium on Sunday, September 27, with captain Isaah Yeo and Jack Cogger available for selection.
