Quote: karetaker "Is it always the case player of the match is selected from the winning team. Up till Cleary scored that try I didn’t think he had done an awful lot, I say this as Mam with those 3 try’s was electric and for me was player of the match.'"
Got to disagree Karetaker. I’d still go for Cleary.
If you get chance just rewatch the game again. Penrith were best side 1st half You could only see one winner Cleary’s kicking game controlling it. First 20 minutes of 2nd half Mam with the hat trick was awesome. But then why you pay the big bucks Cleary turns up with a performance that people will talk about for years to come. 40/20 etc, finishing off with the winning 6 points.
