In the final curtain-raiser before the NRL fixture kicks off at 5:30 pm, look out for some of the club’s young talent in the Jersey Flegg Cup match against Penrith.
Josh Feledy has proved hard to handle since making the jump from SG Ball earlier this year, and will look to continue his rich vein of form against a strong Panthers outfit.
Sione Vaihu and new recruit Iverson Matai are just a few of the other promising youngsters to keep an eye on in this clash, while Wests SG Ball player Chris Faagutu is set to make his Jersey Flegg debut, off the bench.
