No signs of Tom Trbojevic, Luke Brooks and Daly Cherry-Evans for the Sea Eagles, who have been put on ice ahead of Round 1.
However, Anthony Seibold is still unleashing a strong forward pack, with Jazz Tevaga slotting in at No.9 and new recruits Siosiua Taukeiaho, Michael Chee Kam and Chris Patolo feature on the bench.
Meanwhile, Reuben Garrick and Lehi Hopoate have been included in the backline.
The Panthers have rested their first grade side, putting those who will be travelling to Las Vegas on ice.
As such, Trent Toelau and Soni Luke have been named in the halves, while rising star Billy Scott wears the No.9 jersey.
Asu Kepaoa has interestingly been named on the wing after joining the club from the Tigers last season.
Elsewhere, Harrison Hassett and Preston Riki will also slot in to the forward pack.
