The lads over at penrithpanthers.com.au are rallying around their mate James Fisher-Harris as he makes the tough decision to head back to his homeland.
Long-term buddy Nathan Cleary is feeling the loss, but acknowledges that it's time for the star prop to move on.
After a decade of battles on the field and three premiership wins together since their SG Ball days back in 2014, the Panthers captain knows that Fisher-Harris' departure to the Warriors in 2025 will be a big blow.
However, he believes that his mate's winning spirit will continue to inspire the team.
As they prepare to carry on without their mate, Cleary and the boys are determined to honor Fisher-Harris' legacy and keep the team's winning tradition alive.
It's a tough loss, but they're ready to step up and fill the void left by their departing friend.
