Nathan Cleary is heading into the big end of season games as the NRL’s Mr Unbeatable.
Remarkably, Cleary hasn’t lost a game since last year’s grand final on October 25 – 313 days ago.
The stunning winning run underlines just how vital Cleary is to the Panthers’ hopes of winning this year’s premiership.

The goalkicking halfback has missed some games through injury – but Penrith has won all 15 games he has started.
He has also won the two Origin games he played, missing game three, which the Blues lost.
Panthers teammates Isaah Yeo (20 games) and Brian To’o (17) are also unbeaten at club level, but both were members of the New South Wales team that was beaten by Queensland in that final Origin game.
Cleary won just 38 per cent of his games in 2019, but came of age last season, batting at 90 per cent as he led the Panthers to the grand final.
He has taken his game to a new level this year with his staggering winning run – and is right in the firing line for both the Dally M and a premiership with the Panthers.
