Zac Hosking yearns for a grand final, reflecting on success with Penrith and Canberra's top position.
Zac Hosking is finding it hard not to dream of achieving what he missed out on at Penrith - playing in a grand final.
The back-rower is part of a Canberra side who were top of the table prior to Canterbury's clash with Brisbane on Friday night.
It's a familiar place on the ladder for Hosking from his time at Penrith, when the Panthers led the 2023 competition for much of the year, before claiming a minor-major premiership double.
