Panthers with the early running and field position, happily coming down their crack left-edge and targeting makeshift centre Sitili Tupouniua, who’s defending inside Sam Walker.

All eyes on Victor Radley in his return from a long-term ankle injury - and of course he takes the first run, while the Panthers have Nathan Cleary, Jarome Luai, Brian To’o, Stephen Crichton, Liam Martin, Isaah Yeo and Api Koroisau backing up from Sunday night’s big win by the Blues.Penrith are getting the job done in reggies as well, getting past the Bears in what was a 1 v 3 clash as the curtain raiser.
