Both Todd Carney & Mitch Pearce on Footy Talk League’s Half-Time questioned whether or not the minor premiership is really important.
The NRL braces itself for a mammoth top of the table clash between Penrith Panthers and Melbourne Storm though there is a sense that fans are watching a Grand Final preview rather than a game for the first trophy of the season.
LISTEN HERE:
The duo are the likeliest to finish first past the post but with no bonus outside of financial incentives, there really isn’t a difference between finishing first or second with home finals locked in for Week One and possibly Week Three.
Even when Pearce was asked how many minor premierships he had won, he answered, “three of four” much to the amusement of host Adam Peacock who highlighted that he didn’t even clearly remember.
