After the Melbourne Storm’s victory over the Penrith Panthers in the NRL Grand Final on Sunday night, it was unfortunate that a significant chunk of the chatter was dedicated to the commentary of the game – specifically Gus Gould’s – rather than the game itself.
State of Origin is now less than a week away, and we want you to tell us who should be in the Maroons side for Game 1.
As we all know, Blues dynasties are historically celebrated with exaggerated claims of Origin’s death and nice lithographs.
They may have come up short against the Melbourne Storm in the 2020 decider, but the Penrith Panthers are being heralded as the team of the coming decade.
The Roar welcomes guest columnist Phil Gould to bring his unique take on the grand final.
Phil Gould has taken to radio to hit back at claims his commentary during the NRL grand final wasn’t up to scratch.

Penrith may have made a game of the 2020 NRL grand final late, but they were comprehensively blown away in the first half and took far too long to get their act together.
The Melbourne Storm have won yet another NRL premiership, defeating the Penrith Panthers 26-20 in the NRL grand final.
If you hear the names Cameron Smith and LeBron James in the same sentence, it would usually be regarding the heralded ‘GOAT’ discussion.

With just 15 seconds left in the NRL grand final, no one, least of all the Storm and Panthers players, were in a joking mood. But looking back on it, we reckon Brandon Smith getting shoved into touch by Penrith winger Josh Mansour, after trying to stretch out his exit from the field for a […]
With the Panthers conceding an early lead to the Storm in the NRL grand final, you could forgive Phil Gould for being a bit grumpy.
We’d pay money to see Brandon Smith do stand up comedy!
He was all smiles in the early stages of the second half, but that all changed for Craig Bellamy as Penrith recovered from a 26-point deficit to go within a whisker of tying the game.
The NRL bunker had a huge call to make to start the 2020 NRL grand final with Penrith player Tyrone May using his foot to knock the ball from Storm player’s Justin Olam’s hands.
Scott Bailey from AAP just made a name for himself.
In the 26th minute of an August 2009 match between the Manly Sea Eagles and Cronulla Sharks, NRL referee Phil Haines faced a testing situation. Manly player Chris Bailey lay prone on the ground after being struck in the head by Cronulla’s Luke Douglas.
