Warrington fan flies 10,000 miles for historic Grand Final

A Warrington Wolves fan traveled 10,000 miles from Sydney to attend Saturday's Super League Grand Final at Old Trafford, saying he "couldn't miss" the club's first chance to win the trophy. Paul Keppel, a 27-year supporter, will watch the match against Wakefield Trinity with 17 friends. Keppel, who moved to Australia two years ago, said he woke up feeling "nervous" but gave his team a "50/50 chance" of winning. He launched a podcast called The Wire in Bondi after relocating, and even encountered a Wakefield fan on his flight from Sydney. Neither Warrington nor Wakefield has previously won the Grand Final, making this a historic occasion for both clubs. Keppel, first hooked at age 11, acknowledged one fan will be "very disappointed on the way home."
