Penrith, NSW — In a stunning revelation that has fans and rivals buzzing, sources close to the Penrith Panthers have unveiled the team’s newest—and perhaps most unconventional—training method yet. Head Coach Ivan Cleary has reportedly introduced midnight yoga sessions under the full moon, designed to “align body, mind, and premiership energy.”

According to insiders, these sessions take place at the team’s secret training grounds, where players gather barefoot on the dewy grass. The atmosphere is said to be “both eerie and electric,” with moonlight reflecting off the Panthers’ black and teal gear as they stretch in silence—until star halfback ‘Lightning’ Lolo bursts into action, performing his now-famous flaming kicks.

Eyewitnesses describe the sight as “unreal,” claiming Lolo’s precision kicks ignite specially prepared fireballs that light up the night sky. Meanwhile, the team’s beloved mascot ‘Spike’ reportedly serves as the official “judge,” holding up numbered signs with his oversized paws to rate each player’s focus and flair.

Since news of the ritual leaked, ticket sales have surged, and the Panthers’ social media accounts have exploded with fan theories. Some believe the lunar-inspired training gives players “supernatural stamina,” while others say it’s all part of Cleary’s next-level strategy to outsmart opponents.

When reached for comment, a club spokesperson laughed but neither confirmed nor denied the reports, saying only:

“The Panthers are always exploring innovative ways to stay on top of their game. The moon might just be our secret weapon.”

With the NRL season heating up, fans are already predicting another championship victory—and perhaps a few more midnight miracles along the way.
