Penrith are clearing space in their trophy cabinet for more September additions, while the Eels have nothing but a clear schedule come the end of this month.
Brad Arthur is bang on when he says, “the grand final rematch doesn’t mean anything right now”.
By both the sum and sheer number of parts, Penrith’s annual exits – Api Koroisau, Viliame Kikau and Charlie Staines – fall short of the load Parramatta has carried out of last year’s decider. “Injuries happen but suspensions are within our control. And if there’s one singular thing that’s really hurt us [it’s discipline] … I’m proud of the effort. I’m not proud of how we played, because it’s not good enough.
“Our execution isn’t quite there,” Arthur lamented. “The other thing is you’re changing combinations, you’re changing players. We had a lot of players that were here for four or five years that worked well within our systems, our structure and knew exactly what we did.Again, Arthur is bang on.
