Sunday, July 18, 4.05 PM, Round 10, Panthers Stadium, Penrith, Penrith Panthers take on North Queensland Cowboys NRL Match Preview

Panthers on the run and looking to go all the way, the Panthers have eaten most teams by a comfortable margin throughout their rounds, this is just one of those games, just a test of mentality and two points facing a cowboys outfit that seems a little lost with direction on the field whilst lacking effort and motivation to be competitive as of late, the Cowboys have won the last two games played against the Panthers so a win for the Panthers should be tasty.

LAST TIME THEY MET

The last time these two teams met the Cowboys at home beat the Panthers 24-10. Previously, in earlier years and most recent form, 35 matches played between the Cowboys and the Panthers favour the Cowboys winning 18, all other statistics indicate the Panthers score more points and defend better on an average, this should be a comfortable win for the Panthers.
