At 4:53 Chricton kicks straight into the arms of Cobbo and is held back by Brisbane defenders. Watch the work from Scott Sorrenson, he quickly plugs the gap where Chrichton would have been defending, Cobbo looks up sees him, hesitates and Crichton is able to recover and make the tackle. Its the 73rd minute, Sorrenson is fatigued but makes the effort to be there, if he isn't Cobbo probably runs 90ms and scores game over. It's efforts like this that make Penrith a champion team.
The moment Cleary broke through and setup Leota, he became possessed. What an incredible performance from him, the 40/20, catching Reynolds drop out on the full, converts Crichtons try and scores the winner himself. Immortal
Possessed? The only thing possessing him is a banana on his chin. Broncos were their own enemy. They allowed the panthers to score on the back of so many errors. So no cleary like tedesco hynes and Munster would’ve done the exact same thing. If you watched the game you would’ve seen when the broncos were in their season form in the middle of the match they dominated your little possessed boy and the panthers. So no your wrong just admit it the broncos were their own enemy.
Still in shock and disbelief. One of the greatest Grand Finals I've ever seen, up there with 2015. That final Cleary try will be remembered as one of the most heartstopping and amazing moments.
I wish Rabs was commentating this GF. Would have made it all the more special imo. Mat Thompson has improved in recent years, I’ll give him that. But I still would have loved to hear the voice of rugby league call this historic game.
Mat hasn't improved, he is annoying and doesn't really call the game, he spends most of his time spewing out factoids. There is another video on here, it must be from fox, that guy calls the game.
In the 80s Penrith we’re called Chocolate Soldiers & laughed at Gus Gould looked to the juniors & the set up he said this will take 20 years for it to pay off then began to set up the structure you have to day & for passionate locals they needed this & got it Cleary Father & Son deserve all the respect they are such wonderful people & to Gus Gould Thanx
Reece Walsh was completely unprepared for that play,he could've gone to the blindside when the play was directed there like the 3 people on his right. He just switched off. In the only time that your whole career has built up to the moment where you show what you're made of , and he absolute crumbled. Big lesson learnt.
@@SlaintheMhath as soon as he sorts out his defence he'll be dangerous... As a first year in a premier team it's somewhat understandable of his mistakes. But same goes for the whole Broncos team in general who made errors that Penrith capitalised on. Next year they'll be lethal
@@nigelmcculloch3746I was honestly shocked to see how tired the broncos looked. Looking at how both teams play I’d assumed broncos would outlast Penrith in terms of endurance.
penrith dead on their feet and 16 points down , i wrote them off , championship team possibly the best team ever ,4 grand finals in a row and to get the 3rd grand final like that i was almost as shell shocked as the broncos
Still don’t get how other fans think that the nrl favour Penrith. One of the smaller market, suburban teams in the comp along side Cronulla. They also don’t have prestige that the dragons, or bunnies have. If anything the nrl would be cheering on for a Bronx win in an economic and business sense. 37k memberships, the only team in the second biggest nrl city, growing population due to upcoming olympics. But again as they say, rugby league is a simple and working man’s game
Close to the greatest Grand Final I've ever seen. 1997, 2003, 2015 and 2016 were all amazing, but this is just about the best of the lot, and I'm a St George fan. Super happy that a great NSW team like Penrith won it all.
1997 was best as the scores were level and the try was scored on full time and after a field goal attempt was charged down the play beforehand. The man in both of those plays, Andrew Jones. He takes the field goal attempt and then passes to Darren Albert who finds the gap and scores to win the game, just unbelievable. But this one is the best of this generation, without a doubt!
That moment was huge when Staggs tried to milk a penalty for a crusher tackle; could have turned the game. Kick for touch and Brisbane attacking the Panthers line in the final moments. Big ups to referee Gee for not falling for it. Get up and play the ball pal 👏🏻👏🏻
There were a lot of incidents that would have drawn a penalty in a comp game, Mr Gee just let it slide and the footy was awesome. Some tried to milk a penalty and it usually works but not in the GF. Great game Mr Gee, thank you.
8:36 you can see the middle defenders and Reece welsh being lazy here and not covering the gap. I know there tired but Penrith would never make that mistake
What a Game One of the Greatest I've ever seen in Years Nathan Clearly has Won it for Penrith ❤.. Bulldogs Fan here but I was Cheering hard out for the PANTHERS 😂
Look at 8:36 where the bloke touted as the greatest front rower to have played the game missed his assignment in front of the posts, fooled into moving to his left by the sleight of hand of Mitch Kenny. No doubt a technique learned from Api Koroisau. The underrated Kenny a big contributor to this premiership winning try.
To all you Broncos fans, you should be extremely content with your team's performance and year! Well done to the Panthers back to back to back premiers!
Renoylds choked on big games. He even did when the Rabbitohs made finals against the Panthers, when he missed the drop kick. This time he missed a crucial tackle on Cleary and he drop kick the ball out on the full. Anyways, nextyear will be Broncons year. I remember the Panthers had a young team and they built a alot of confidence throughout the years and mantained a positive mindset towards winning, few years later they won 3 consecutive championships. So, hold your head up high Broncos, you have a young team. So build up your confidence move forward, take the loss as a lesson to be better nextyear. BRONCOS will come back stronger nextyear i guarantee it 100%.
So proud of my home-town club! When I lived there 40 years ago we were the easybeats, the perennial wooden-spooners. Now three titles in a row! And the gretest comeback since Lazarus! Nathan Cleary's performance, his 40:20 with a few minutes left, was amazing.
It's amazing as a huge fan of both NRL and AFL Two of the best ever GFS... whatch them both over and over best weekend for a long time. Oh and kiss was awesome! Next year maybe the Strolling Bones 😂
I’m Canadian. Watch a lot of America football Canadian football. I tell you what. This NRL is an incredible product to watch!!!! I have been instantly hooked for two years!!! It is gaining popularity here in canada and the US trust me.
It’s amazing reports are coming out that Payne haas did not get penalised for a blatant hip drop on Nathan Cleary in the 10th minute only to destroy the broncos outright in the last 20 minutes with a busted MCL injury, the folklore on Cleary is getting even crazier after 24 hrs of the GF
Broncos were trying to survive that last 20, not trying to win, running it on the 5th, reece walsh and staggs trying to milk a penalty, if walsh gets back into play and not worry about his neck he “miraculously” recovered from in 2 seconds that could have been a difference.
The short drop-out belongs in the sewage system of NRL history. That Joey kept insisting that Reynolds should employ it, even after the original disaster is a real disappointment. It's an awful tactic, unless you're behind and very short on time.
Not taking anything away from Penrith...but that last try was absolutely horrible défense from the broncos..to have 4 people miss a diagonal runner that isn't stepping is disgusting knowing that it's either win or lose moment...
The simple common sense to send in the short bomb on their last set, giving his defence time to get there and take away the chance for the broncs to swing and run was as smart as it gets.
There are great commentators like Ray Warren, Bruce McAveny, Richie Benaud etc. Then there's this bloke who does nothing but shout at you for 80 minutes. Awesome game.

i didn't spot this. great analysis!
Agree 💯
He wasn’t held back just saying fleggler let go of him straight away
The whole 80 minutes determine the best result. Not just some parts of the game
Wasn't that fatigued, he was subbed on less than a minute before
The moment Cleary broke through and setup Leota, he became possessed. What an incredible performance from him, the 40/20, catching Reynolds drop out on the full, converts Crichtons try and scores the winner himself. Immortal
Best player in the league currently.
An immortal? Not yet.
Do that in origin and he will be.
He was totally possessed! Possessed by the rugby league gods!
@someoneunseen5168
Winning Grand Finals is 10x harder than winning origin. Not Cleary's fault that NSW have had an inept coach for the past 6 years.
Possessed? The only thing possessing him is a banana on his chin. Broncos were their own enemy. They allowed the panthers to score on the back of so many errors.

@@AGTV10 how to say you're a hater without saying it lol
Fantastic performance by the referee in this game. Light touch meant a fast game, major drama, and hardly noticed him. Great job
Nathan Cleary deservedly Churchill winner , but Stephen Crichton was the man in this final 10. Without him they just wouldnt have got there.
I picked Crichton at the start of the game. I still think he is a bit underrated
@@aidangreen294he’s a superb player. He will be missed when he goes.
Stephen Crichton deservedly Churchill 🥇 💯 %

I can't believe the result. Imagine being Scottie Pippen and this is your first game of Rugby League.

I’m not even a Penrith supporter but I’ve seen the highlights heaps of times. Total feel good factor with this 👍👍
Nathan Cleary 2 try assist 1 try 4/4 goal conversion ( 1 from sideline Crichton try ) that is an immortal performance

Penrith Panthers a champion team. I am converted after that amazing grand final.

Kenny fooled them by feigning to go right. That was enough to take Haas out of the equation.

It would have been even more massive if Ray Warren was Commentating.
