No Yeo gives Penrith rare unknown ahead of finals

Penrith are preparing for the possibility of their first stint without Isaah Yeo since the start of their dynasty, with the lock's shoulder injury a concern for the run home. The Panthers' trainer fiasco has dominated headlines in recent days, with Corey Bocking facing a five-match ban for the goal-kicker interference last week. But the bigger deal could be the fitness of Yeo, who did not finish the golden-point win over Gold Coast and is facing at least a small stint out. Yeo will not form part of Penrith's team for Friday night's clash with Newcastle, with Isaiah Papali'i to wear the No.13 jersey. Since the start of the Panthers' run in 2020, Yeo has only missed 16 games for the club. Some 14 of those have been through State of Origin duties or being rested, with the other two in 2020 and 2022 following head knocks. Penrith coach Ivan Cleary confirmed this week Yeo had not completely dislocated his right shoulder when he fell awkwardly last Saturday. But Cleary could also not say how long the Australia Test captain would be out, or if he could have played this week had it been a grand final. "Clearly there's been a little bit of a concern with his shoulder," Cleary said. "We'll just give him as much time as he needs, and we're very confident he'll be back." Asked how soon the 30-year-old's return could be, Cleary responded: "We don't know. "It was a sublux, so it didn't come right out. They all vary," Cleary said. "The fact that he can keep playing is a really good sign. Obviously he pulled up a little sore at halftime and then after the game. "He won't be playing this week, and we'll just take it as it comes and see how he goes." Panthers prop Luron Patea will also miss Friday night's clash with a collarbone injury, but Cleary said the 20-year-old's scan was "better". Penrith are no strangers to facing a run into the finals with shoulder issues, with Nathan Cleary and Jarome Luai having carried them in recent years. "Yeoy he is a massive integral part of our side ... To fill his shoes it is going to be a bit of a joint venture," prop Lindsay Smith said. "There are definitely a couple of us boys in the middle that need to take a step up. "You can't replicate Yeoy and you can't replicate his leadership and calmness on the field. "But everyone can chip in there in their own department to fill that void as a whole ... When he's been out, we've been able to do that in games." Penrith were beaten by the Knights in an Origin-affected round-12 game, with that match marking their last loss before the club's eight straight wins. The streak means Penrith are now a chance of going from last two months ago to the top four as soon as this weekend.

Max Gawn makes surprising admission about Simon Goodwin

Melbourne's much-loved captain Max Gawn says he was shocked by the club's decision to sack premiership coach Simon Goodwin but has denied suggestion he is angry about the situation. In fact, Gawn has surprisingly revealed he is optimistic about the future and indeed excited about what is next. Speaking on Triple M, Gawn shared details of the Monday night when he found out, revealing he received a call from football manager Alan Richardson and club director David Chippindall ... who suddenly appeared at his door 'a minute later'. 'Here am I again, hey? This is fun. I initially took the Triple M job looking to get involved in some fun stuff in the morning,' Gawn said Triple M's Mick in the Morning. 'I found out Monday night, the Test match was coming to a climax between England and India, and I get a phone call from Alan Richardson and David Chippindall saying, 'Can we come over?', and they knock on the door within a minute of the phone call, so I reckon, they might have been out of the front. 'They walked me through the process, and I appreciate that I was involved in some early conversations. By Tuesday morning, it was all out there.' Simon Goodwin was blindsided by Melbourne's decision to sack him. Credit: Getty Gawn said the decision came as a 'shock' for most people but believed that showed 'good' management from the club. 'If you did see it coming, it means things were leaking and the board are struggling to keep things in-house,' he said. 'I've had some great times with Goody; we've had nine years (together as a coach), and as an assistant coach it's 11 years.' But he denied was angry about the situation, while surprisingly admitting he had already moved on. 'No, definitely not angry. I'm a supporter of the team. I love the Melbourne Football Club,' he said. 'They've sacked people that I love before, and I move on, and so do they. 'This one is harder to take at present, but I have some great relationships with the people that have made the decision, and they've explained carefully to me why. 'I'm excited for what's next. It's funny how quickly you move on in football. Goodwin sacked ... and I'm like, 'Jeez, my life is over, what's happened here?' (and) I'm down in the dumps on Tuesday morning. 'We train Tuesday arvo and again Wednesday, and today I can't wait (to play) the Western Bulldogs, can't wait for what we do in the trade period, and I can't wait to (see) what coach we get in. It's happened, now let's move on.' Gawn insisted he did not hold any resentment towards the board for making this decision. 'No, not at all. Some interesting takes: (Hawthorn great Luke Hodge suggested) I was going to get traded. I'm a lover of the Melbourne Football Club, and in the end, I'm going to support most decisions that they make, and this is another one I am going to get behind,' he said. 'I'm very close with Goody, and we're going to stay in touch. I've stayed in touch with Gary Pert (former CEO) and Kate Roffey (former president). Nathan Jones (former captain) got told to move on and I'm still incredible close with him.' 'We're trying to support Goody was much as we can. We're also supportive of the club moving forward and trying to win a flag, so we're supportive of club decisions and we want to broadcast to the supporters that we're OK. 'I appreciate that after nine years that a new voice could help. I was pretty bullish about what we were building at the football club and the old voice was working for me, but we were also 6 (wins) and 13 (losses) but the good clubs don't wait, and I appreciate that. 'It's natural to be scared of change. But when change happens, you go, 'Oh, OK, nothing really happened.' I'm still rocking up to my job and I'm quite bullish about what's next. I'm scared of change, and I've got a lot of relationships in that building and I hope they all keep their jobs.' Former coaches Nathan Buckley, John Longmire and Adam Simpson have all been linked to the Melbourne job.
