Additionally, a radio broadcast will be available for those who prefer to listen.\n\nThe day begins with the State Championship match between Penrith and Redcliffe Dolphins. The result from the first half is clear: Penrith has taken an overwhelming lead, scoring 40 points through three tries and adding another in the second stanza. Redcliffe Dolphins' star player, Jake Averillo, has showcased his talent with three tries, three line breaks, and two assists.\n\nDespite Penrith's strong performance, there is no repeat of last year's triumph. The Panthers boast multiple accolades, including the Jersey Flegg and NSW Cup championships, as well as the State Championship and NRL premiership. It appears that this grand final will be a memorable and thrilling event for rugby league enthusiasts.",
