Wade Park, Orange

Kick-off 2pm (league tag starts 10:30am)

Captain-coach: Jack Buchanan.

There are mass changes for the powerhouse Group 10 side with new recruits Preston Simpson and Kiyan Shaw slotting straight into the starting side against their former club. Dylan Kelly will wear the number six and play in the halves. Ryan Griffin is out of this week's side after playing hooker against Lithgow seven days earlier.

Captain-coach: Justin Toomey-White.

Star centre Blake Ferguson has not been named for the Cowboys' trip to Orange. The former NRL star's exclusion from the side will bring Logan Conn in to start on an edge. Mason Williams will remain at fullback for a second consecutive week with Tyrone Tattersall staying in the centres.

PANTHERS: 1 Nick Tilburg, 2 Evan Cafe, 3 Josh Rivett, 4 Tieryn Toomey-White, 5 Callum Limon, 6 Dylan Miles, 19 Josh Merritt, 8 David Sellers, 9 Joe Bugg, 10 Jed Betts, 11 Thomas Lemmich, 12 Brady Cheshire, 13 Jake Betts; Bench: 14 TBC, 15 TBC, 16 TBC, 17 TBC. Captain-coach: Jake Betts.
