The Late Mail: Panthers v Bulldogs

v BYE

50 years of history on the line for the Panthers

Penrith have confirmed the omission of Will Smith - with Dean Whare to return at fullback in jumper 19. Sitaleki Akauola makes his club debut in the second row with Bryce Cartwright relegated to the interchange. James Fisher-Harris is out.

Canterbury are 1-17 as expected which means Lloyd Perrett drops off a 5-man bench.
