Nathan Cleary spent time with Brad Fittler after Penrith's 48-4 smash-up of the Roosters by plotting the next challenge that awaits them - taking down Queensland in this year's State of Origin series.
Cleary acknowledged the challenge being thrown at Luai by Hynes and Walker, who he has spent time with at the Origin level previously, and said it was only healthy that Fittler had selection headaches to make throughout the side.
"State of Origin is always going to be like that, there will always be great players available," he said.The Panthers moved two competition points closer to ladder-leaders Brisbane, who they'll face next week at Suncorp Stadium after piling on eight tries in their big win over the Roosters. "It was a fun night, particularly back at home where we haven’t been for a month and with all the ’03 boys as well," Cleary said.Up Next
