Feb 14 - John Lang has announced a 22 man squad for the NRL trial against the Knights at Carrington Park in Bathurst on Saturday night.
Faced with the unavailability of a number of top players who are recovering from injury, and the fact that Ben Ross has one final game to serve from last year's suspension, John has included a number of youngsters.
Among them are Michael Gordon and Peter Wallace, who did so well for the Cougars in last Saturday's VB Sevens tournament at St Marys.
Paul Franze will be playing for the first time in a Panthers jersey.
Craig Gower, who had a groin operation only a matter of weeks ago, has been back in training only one week, and is expected to play only around 20 minutes.
The full squad is: Rhys Wesser, Michael Gordon, Danny Galea, Paul Franze, Trent Clayton, Preston Campbell, Craig Gower, Trent Waterhouse, Frank Pritchard, Luke Swain, Frank Puletua, Luke Priddis, Garret Crossman, Jason Wrigley, John Nuumaalii, Ben Rogers, David McLean, Matthew Pow, Shannon Donato, Jono Rolfe, Peter Wallace and Damien Blanch.
All will get a run.

Great STuff.
Very strong I think.
