Silver lining to a black grand final day for the Arthurs

Parramatta were comprehensively beaten, but the coach’s son scored a try in the 77th minute of a grand final.

Arthur came into the game with plenty of critics questioning why he was even included in the final 17. Despite the online abuse at different stages this year, the coach stuck with his son, and young Jake will be a better player for the big-game experience.Arthur pounced on a grubber kick back in-field from his good friend and former Rouse Hill Rhinos teammate Will Penisini.

The Eels lose plenty of experience with Reed Mahoney, Marata Niukore and Isaiah Papali’i leaving the club for the Bulldogs, Warriors and Wests Tigers respectively, but youngsters like Arthur and Penisini will be better players.
