Summary
Pennrith’s season revived with an 18-10 victory over Parramatta, propelled by State of Origin stars, lifting them from the bottom of the NRL ladder. Nathan Cleary, after a challenging performance in the Origin, made a crucial sideline conversion and assisted in securing the win with a final try from Brian To’o. The Panthers now sit 14th, needing to win eight of their next 12 games to achieve a 50% record, while showing improved defense despite the Eels dominating possession for stretches of the match.
