Looks like the media are in overdrive over the retirement of Coach Cleary at the end of 2027.
So far we know
Liam Martin has expressed his desire to stay at Penrith under Coach Peter Wallace and has instructed his management to get the ball rolling
It’s been reported that Brian To’o will likely sign with the PNG Chiefs. He has been playing for unders on his current contract at Penrith and understandably is looking to get a good payday for his family.
In his time at Penrith, To’o has played with injuries that would kill a brown dog and never complained. If he leaves, I hope whoever signs him pays him BUCKETS of money. He deserves every dollar.
News coming through that Freddy Lussik will be at the dogs for 2 seasons, commencing next year.
He has been great for us, and his form only enhanced his value.
A good player who has definitely benefited from his time as a Panther. Maybe he will be another player departing Penrith with a ring 
Saw that just now on Facebook, which is disappointing. Hopefully lock up Kenny, Freddy was a great insurance policy at worst, and bold call, potentially even offers a little more than Kenny.
Although the strengths of both are more offence vs defence.
Not sure this is for real; there is a huge amount of bullshit on-line at the moment e.g. Royce Simmons and Steve Carter recently dying which thankfully was not the case. Steve was actually reported as being 10 years older than he was.
There needs to be more policing of the internet and more particularly Farcebook.
From the Western Weekender:
Fake news
The NRL is understood to be working with Meta to put a stop to some of the disturbing AI-generated fake news stories that are popping up on its platforms, particularly Facebook.
The articles have killed off the likes of Royce Simmons and Greg Alexander and spread bizarre rumours about a host of Penrith figures, including Ivan and Nathan Cleary.
While most of them are far from believable, it’s still concerning enough that the NRL is trying to put a stop to it.
A lot of these stories come under my “Why does Nigeria always get the news first” banner. Very few of the stories pass the pub test. I wouldn’t be clicking any links in them, they all look dodgy.
There’s a few NRL-focused fake news sites that pop up on facebook feeds a lot, with attention grabbing headlines. Then you click into them and they’re just essay long “news” articles that dribble nonsense about historical positions, and maybe, eventually, might, if ever, elaborate, try to explain, discuss, describe, cover off on, educate, explore, or even talk about the headline or potentially related topic. maybe. 
I’m sure they’re just engagement farming and getting the comments rolling.
