The Penrith Panthers will not get themselves caught up with their previous finals record as they have a lot of work to do to put themselves in the best position for this weekend’s NRL Grand Final against the Melbourne Storm.

Panthers prop Moses Leota has made it clear that nothing will change for them in the final as they will just do an extra bit more job for the team.

Leota says this season, they just focused on doing everything right during the year and stuck to the process as well as doing whatever the team needed.

He says this became second nature for them when they did it throughout the whole season.

Panthers’ star five-eighth Nathan Cleary says it is always going to be a tough game when it comes to the grand final.

Cleary says the Storm have been the best team all year, they have been super consistent and showed it again against a good Roosters team last week.

He adds it is up there in terms of their opponent and it is a great challenge but also a great opportunity for them.

The Panthers will be looking to claim their fourth consecutive premiership title this weekend.

The Panthers will take on the Storm at 8.30pm Sunday in Sydney.
