The Penrith coach believes his son Nathan is only now set to enter the best years of his career,despite the loss of champion five-eighth Jarome Luai.
This might be tough reading for league fans who do not support the Penrith Panthers.
And the arrival of a new hero to tackle pond scum.
The high turnover of players departing Penrith has worked in the team’s favour. The champion coach explains why.
