The Panthers won their fourth straight premiership over the weekend, officially cementing themselves as one of the greatest NRL teams of all time.
Throughout the match, and the season, one of the most consistent players was winger Brian To'o, ran for 213 metres in just 57 minutes.
But there were concerns for the Panthers' origin star, after he left the game early due to an apparent knee injury.

Brian To'o gives injury update after dominant grand final
Amongst the premiership celebration, there was a sliver of concern around To'o from the Panthers faithful, after he left the game limping and did not return.
But according to the winger, it was simply the result of an early knee clash, and not a significant worry heading into the off-season.
"It’s alright, it’s just a little bit stiff," To’o said.
"I just told them straight away, in case it was bad. I’m not too sure what it is at the moment.
"It was a bit of a knee clash at the start of the first half. It started getting to me towards the end.
"I thought I would be a bit of a liability if I was still out there.
"It’s obviously what is best for the team, the team always comes first. As much as I wanted to stay out there, I was really happy with my decision."
The Panthers took down the Melbourne Storm to claim the title, winning 14-6.
