The Penrith Panthers have made history in the NRL by winning their third consecutive premiership, solidifying their status as the greatest team of the salary cap era.
Despite the setback of losing star playmaker Jarome Luai, the Panthers staged an incredible comeback in the grand final, marking the largest in the history of the sport.
Captain Isaah Yeo emphasized their dominance by declaring the team "undisputed" champions during his trophy acceptance speech.
This achievement has not been seen in 40 years, putting the Panthers in a league of their own.
Now, the team, led by coach Ivan Cleary, has set their sights on an even greater accomplishment: becoming one of only three teams to win four successive grand finals.
The other two teams who have achieved this feat are St George, who did it twice during their remarkable run of 11 consecutive premierships from 1956 to 1966, and South Sydney, who accomplished it from 1926 to 1929.
The Panthers are determined to etch their name in rugby league history alongside these legendary clubs.
