Carrington Park in Bathurst will host its annual Panthers fixture this Saturday as the defending premiers welcome Newcastle to town.

Penrith's journey to the regional centre has been ongoing since 2014 (except for a COVID-related break in 2020) with Ivan Cleary's side looking to make it back-to-back wins at the venue for the first time since 2017.

With kick-off at the family-friendly 3:00pm timeslot, it's shaping as a game not to be missed for those in the region — and a fascinating on-field battle too between one of the competition favourites and the current ladder leaders after Round 2!
