Hi and welcome to League Unlimited's Live Update of today's massive clash between the Titans and Panthers! Whoever wins secures a Top 8 spot! For the home side David Shillington is out, replaced by Agnatius Paasi and Luke Douglas also reverts back to the bench with Agnatius Paasi taking his spot in the starting team. Penrith are nice and easy, 1-17, some nice continuity for them recently.
