NRL Team Announcement: Raiders v Panthers

The Canberra Raiders have made a number of changes to their team for Sunday’s match against the Penrith Panthers at GIO Stadium.

Mosese Pangai is set to make his Raiders debut after being named on the wing for the Raiders in place of Bill Tupou, while Jack Wighton has been shifted to the right centre position for Matt Allwood.

Terry Campese has moved from halfback to five-eighth, with Josh McCrone set to start for the Raiders at halfback.

Jarrad Kennedy returns to the Raiders team in the second row, with Josh Papalii and David Shillington also returning to the Raiders starting side.

This sees Dane Tilse, Joel Edwards and Paul Vaughan all moved back to the Raiders interchange bench.
