2024 GRAND FINAL

The D had to give there. Storm have been given some latitude off their defensive line and have cut down the penny playmakers’ time quite well. Hard to see this intensity staying for the whole game. Cracker so far.
 
OK, this is weird. Stick with me here.

Parramatta's unfortunate early 80s hat-trick was bookended by the Bulldogs who won in 1980 and 1984. The Bulldogs beat the Eels in the 1984 GF to stop their run.

Melbourne won the GF before Penrith's current hat-trick and tonight they play Penrith with the chance to end their run and bookend their hat-trick.

In 1984, the Eels led by 4 points at halftime.
In 2024, Penrith lead by 4 points at halftime.
