Penrith have staked their claim as one of rugby league's greatest ever sides, after Nathan Cleary engineered the biggest comeback in grand final history to beat Brisbane 26-24 and claim a third straight title.
Down 24-8 with 18 minutes to play at Accor Stadium on Sunday, Cleary set up two tries and scored one of his own in the dying minutes to give the Panthers the lead and earn himself a second Clive Churchill Medal.
