2022 NRL Grand Final Panthers v. Eels (Contains Spoilers)
The Accor Stadium in Sydney was the venue for an NRL Grand Final between runaway Minor Premiers and defending champions Penrith Panthers and the side which finished four places and eight points behind then at the end of the regular season, the Paramatta Eels.
The twenty-fifth NRL Grand Final was the third consecutive for the Panthers with the Eels making their first appearance in the showpiece event since their loss to Melbourne Storm in 2009, a victory later stripped from the Melbourne side for salary cap breaches.
The bookies were convinced that the Panthers would be lifting the trophy again in 2022 and had handicapped them by ten points on the coupon and making them odds on favourites on the win market. A packed house held its breath.
