We’re now a week away from the NRL grand final.
Here’s what you need to know about the game before kick-off.
Who’s in the NRL grand finals?
The Melbourne Storm and the Penrith Panthers.
Melbourne defeated the Sydney Roosters in their preliminary final on Friday, 48-18.
The Panthers secured Saturday’s preliminary final with a 26-6 triumph over the Cronulla Sharks.
When is the NRL grand final?
Sunday next week.
That’s October 6, which, as seems to be tradition, is also the first day of daylight saving time for the places that observe it.
That’ll mean there will be five different time zones in Australia, which has the potential to cause a few headaches with the timing.
