Final Teams
Panthers - J'maine Hopgood joins the interchange with Charlie Staines dropping out of the side.
Chris Smith starts in the second row with Liam Martin a late withdrawal before kickoff.
Jarome Luai (knee injury) returns at five-eighth with Jaeman Salmon making way.
James Fisher-Harris returns from suspension at prop pushing Matt Eisenhuth to the interchange.
Sunia Turuva is the reserve player.
Warriors - Chanel Harris-Tavita (knee injury) returns at five-eighth replacing Daejarn Asi.
Dunamis Lui starts at lock with Bunty Afoa moving to the interchange
Josh Curran moves to the second row replacing Jack Murchie (hip injury).
Ben Murdoch-Masila (elbow injury) returns on the interchange.
Adam Pompey replaces Marcelo Montoya in the centres.
Jackson Frei is the reserve player.
The Tragics Tip - There's not really much to say about this one, with Jarome Luai returning I expect Penrith's attack to run riot over the Warriors defence. Shaun Johnson will need to turn back the clock and produce an absolute masterclass for the Warriors to be any chance tonight - Penrith by 20+
