Cowboys v Panthers | Dairy Farmers Stadium | Sat, 25 Jul 2009 19:30
Sixth takes on seventh on Saturday night when the Panthers travel north to take on the Cowboys in what shapes as a crucial game for both sides in their run to September.
North Queensland will look to put last Sunday’s disappointing 34-14 loss to the Wests Tigers behind them when they aim for a seventh-straight win at Dairy Farmers. With only two more home games remaining after this week, the two points on offer against the Panthers will be vital in ensuring a top-eight finish.
While the Cowboys hold a handy +94 points differential to lead three other teams from sixth to ninth sitting on 22 points, the Panthers are clinging onto seventh spot with a +18 difference, with Manly and the Broncos just out of the eight.
The Panthers hope they can build on an encouraging 27-14 triumph against the Raiders last Saturday night as they continue to fight without hardened campaigners Petero Civoniceva, Luke Lewis and Frank Pritchard.
It remains to be seen, however, whether the likes of Michael Jennings, Trent Waterhouse and Luke Walsh will be enough to help their team win enough games to claw into the finals.
