The Prime Minister of Australia Scott Morrison is tipping a tight grand final on Sunday but has the Penrith Panthers edging Melbourne by four points.
Speaking to Andrew Voss on SEN, Morrison said Penrith’s run in 2020 reminded him of his beloved Cronulla Sharks back in 2016.
“The Storm are always a classy outfit, there’s no doubt about. They’re very hard to beat, particularly in finals,” the Prime Minister said.
“But a lot like back in 2016, I see a real similarity in this grand final. The Storm always go in looking very strong, but I think the passion, and I hope the passion at the end of the day gets over the top.

“I think it will be one of those great rugby league stories to see the Panthers come through.
“Panthers all the way… by four.”
