6′ Panthers can’t convert first chance
The Roosters get a restart late in the count but drop the ball seconds later to put Penrith on the attack.
Panthers go left on the last and Alamoti tries to position To’o but the pass is no good. Roosters hang on.
Penrith kick us off!
The Panthers are running left to right.
Tips
With Edwards back it’s hard to go past Penrith, even without Isaah Yeo.
No Tedesco also tips the scales in the Panthers favour but given how many points the Roosters have in them you’d be a fool to write them off.
Let’s go Brian To’o to score first and Penrith to win by ten.
Last time they met
It was much earlier in the season but the last time the Panthers played the Roosters was perhaps the former’s most impressive performance of the season.
This was back when they looked invulnerable. After a shaky few weeks they’d do well to get some of this back tonight.
Final teams: Panthers vs Roosters
Big changes for both teams.
Dylan Edwards will start at fullback for the Panthers with Jaxen Edgar dropping back to the bench.
The Roosters, meanwhile, will again be without James Tedesco with their skipper succumbing to an ankle injury. He will again be replaced by Cody Ramsey.
