Another terrible news hit the Penrith Panthers ahead of the clash with Kansas, as the Black Cats have sorrowfully announced…
When a black cat was seen running across the field during their NRL debut, most superstitious people would want to avoid that team going forward.
Not Kurt Capewell, though. He signed a two-year contract with Penrith and is sporting the black Panthers emblem on his chest with pride.
“Night of the black cat…” Looking back at that and realizing that four years later, I am here playing with the team I made my debut against was hilarious, “Capwell told NRL.com about the round 18 encounter at Penrith Stadium in 2016.”
The Sharks won 26–10 that evening, so there were no bad vibes. Furthermore, Capewell does not consider himself to be a superstitious person.

“Maybe there were some signs there that this is where I needed to come,” he stated.
For Capewell to replace what he had during his four years at Cronulla, it had to be somewhere exceptional.
“Leaving the Sharks was undoubtedly difficult. I still have a special place in my heart for the sharks because they are like family to me. I was an avid fan of the team.
It was a little difficult to leave all that behind. Having said that, Penrith welcomed me right away and has continued to make me feel at home ever since.
You could argue that I’ve increased the size of my family.
Here at Penrith, I’m making new acquaintances and developing a new connection. It will also be difficult to break.”
