Panthers coach Anthony Griffin has finalised his side to face Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs at Panthers Stadium.
Peter Wallace has been ruled out with a minor neck injury suffered in last Sunday's game against Cronulla Sharks.
With Wallace sidelined, James Maloney will assume the captaincy of the Panthers and Sione Katoa will start at hooker. 21-year-old Wayde Egan, who made his NRL debut against North Queensland in Round 4, earns a spot on the bench.
The Panthers will wear the black 2018 Home Jersey.
