Panthers coach Ivan Cleary has finalised his side to face Cronulla Sharks at Jubilee Stadium.
19-year-old Forbes Magpies junior Charlie Staines will make his NRL debut as Panther No.595 following the late scratching of Dean Whare, who remains sidelined with a toe injury.
Spencer Leniu was earlier promoted to the bench in place of Zane Tetevano, who misses out with a back complaint.
The Panthers will wear the pink 2020 Alternate Jersey.
