Saturday, 20th of March, 3.00 pm, Bankwest Stadium, Sydney, Round 2, Canterbury Bulldogs versus Penrith Panthers, NRL Match Fixture
This fixture is always a must watch due to the Western Sydney bragging rights that come with a win for either side, but this year Canterbury Bankstown versus Penrith will have a couple of added storylines. Last year the Bulldogs announced the signing of new head coach Trent Barrett, who played a big role in the Panthers’ run to the Grand Final as their attacking coach. Jack Hetherington will also be taking on his old club for the first time.
