Wayne Bennet has done an impressive job with the Broncos so far, only nine rounds into the campaign.
It’s not going to be easy for Penrith as they have plenty of players out, with first-choice halves Jamie Soward and former Bronco Peter Wallace still unavailable. Brent Kite is also out, along with Jamal Idris.
The Panthers have named the same 17 that beat Cronulla two weeks ago.
Brisbane has done some reshuffling with Jordan Kahu returning at fullback with Lachlan Maranta moving to the wing, replacing Dale Copley.
Alex Glenn is back from a fractured eye socket injury with Sam Thaiday out suspended.
