Injured hooker Mitch Kenny has expressed support for Peter Wallace to further develop Penrith's strong legacy.
He is eager to see Ivan Cleary's coaching era conclude positively.
Cleary recently surprised rugby league fans by announcing his plan to step down as head coach after the 2027 season.
Having first taken the role in 2012, Cleary briefly left for the Wests Tigers before returning to the Panthers in 2019.
This year's NRL Magic Round will wrap up for the Panthers with a match against the St George Illawarra Dragons.
