This Round 3 clash, whilst in real terms is seen as a bottom of the table clash, there is still much to look forward to.
Both the Panthers and Dragons, nevertheless, have been disappointing in the opening 2 rounds. It is fair to say that the Dragons have been more so, at the end of two heavy losses, whilst the Panthers have had their chances, but have evidently never really been in the hunt to record victory.
PANTHERS - Competitive against the Roosters, but two intercept tries broke their back. Silly options in attack were also harmful.
DRAGONS - Once again, conceded a huge half time lead, this time against the Storm, and had to play catch up football in the second half.
It would be pedantic to suggest that this is make or break for both teams. But the Dragons need to arrest this alarming trend of slow starts, and the Panthers need to kick their season into gear.
These two teams have a lot to lose and gain from this game. At home, the Panthers have the edge, but the Dragons will come out breathing fire.
Attempting to speak subjectively, the Panthers seem to be in better shape going into this match, but trying to predict what Dragons team will turn up is impossible.
Panthers by 10.
