Burns has been among the Panthers best in the last month or so, I still think it will be tough.

My concern is defence.

2 rookies (Walker and Seijka) ontop of Walsh and Purtell. Makes both our halves and wingers probable liabilities in defence.

In attack it will be great if the ball never goes to the right wing. But a much stronger side barely beat the Cowboys 5 weeks ago, with Adrian Purtell managing to turn a game pretty much dominated by the Panthers into a close match.

lol no thurston they will struggle against the mighty panthers imo.

 

[Didgi]

Will Malaki Watene-Zelezniak ever get a go Panthers fans? Must be better than some options.

Anywho, I think we'll win, particularly if Lewis is out.

Cows by 8...

Bowen first try.

Ok I should have said couple of years... but both those players were still over 2 years ago.

We can thank Adrian Purtell for holding back the debuts of multiple players. Last year he was clearly outclassed in the backs and still managed to hold players out of the team. Then when blokes who had covered injuries had proven themselves better, he just got moved to the second row and kept some young second rowers from being called up when injuries hit.

I was just being a smart ass, it's good to see Penrith bring through some more juniors.

Anymore word on Lewis?

You were technically righ. Although I did think it was closer to 3 years. Felt like forever between players making debuts. Fatiaki was an unlikely player to debut aswell, I would have expected Jesse Sene-Lefao ahead of him.

Shane Elford confirmed to one of the Panthers Forum mods at a pre-game function that he would be playing tonight.

lewis is playing folks!!

It's a shame Gibb suffered an injury early on in the season. Watching him play for Norths last season reminded me a lot of Gillett in the previous year. At least Weston proved an effective Qld Cup purchase.

 

[typicalfan]

who will kick for the Panthers. Seijka or Walsh? Maybe Tighe

 

[goosie]

walsh or seijka
