penrithpanthers.com.au have got the scoop on the upcoming showdown between the Panthers and Cowboys in what promises to be a real cracker of a match at BlueBet Stadium.
Both teams have a strong Origin presence, with players representing their states, so it's going to be a battle of the Titans on Sunday.
Coach Ivan Cleary is keeping his fingers crossed for the return of Isaah Yeo, Liam Martin, Brian To'o, and Dylan Edwards, who are all gearing up to play for the Blues.
Despite missing their star halfback Nathan Cleary for the last seven weeks, the Panthers have shown their depth and resilience, sitting comfortably in second place on the ladder.
Players like Brad Schneider, Daine Laurie, and Liam Henry have really stepped up in Cleary's absence.
The Cowboys, on the other hand, have six players involved in Origin but coach Todd Payten has faith in his team after they managed to beat the Roosters with a bunch of rookies and replacements in Round 13.
They will be looking to build on their recent form against the Raiders in Round 15 before having a well-deserved bye week.
It's going to be a battle of champions, with both teams hungry for victory and eager to show what they're made of on the field.
Expect some fierce competition and top-notch performance from both sides in this thrilling clash.
