Penrith Panthers vs Parramatta Eels Preview
Two struggling Western Sydney rivals will be eager to get back on track when the Penrith Panthers take on the Parramatta Eels at CommBank Stadium this Saturday.
Penrith have slipped to the bottom of the ladder following a flat performance against Newcastle in Bathurst, where the absence of their State of Origin stars was keenly felt. Coach Ivan Cleary has named all five of his Blues representatives to return, while Scott Sorensen re-enters the lineup after serving a suspension. His inclusion reshuffles the forward pack, pushing Izack Tago back into the centres. Promising youngster Harrison Hassett, who scored the Panthers’ only try last week, retains his place on the bench.
Parramatta, on the other hand, are building rare momentum after consecutive wins, highlighted by a commanding 30-10 upset over Manly. Zac Lomax and Mitchell Moses have both been named to start, with Sean Russell shifting to the centres to cover for the concussed Will Penisini.
With both sides battling for form, this Western Sydney derby promises to be a fierce and crucial contest in Parramatta.
