Penrith punish rusty Roosters
13 hours ago | Aidan Edgecomb
Danny Buderus will play his first match since the opening round of the finals last year, when he returns from suspension for the Knights against the Storm this Saturday at Energy Australia Stadium.
In a number of changes to the team that was thoroughly dismantled by the Raiders, Buderus returns straight into the starting side, with Terrence Seu Seu relegated back to the bench, and Milton Thaiday likely to be named in Premier League.
Luke Davico wasn't named after sustaining a rib cartilage injury during the match. Coming onto the extended 5-man bench are Daniel Tolar, who missed the match against Canberra with a bruised hip, and Kirk Reynoldson, returning after being given the week off from all grades.
