'Doesn't look great': Fears Penrith captain could miss rest of NRL season

Penrith captain Isaah Yeo could miss the remainder of the NRL season following a suspected pectoral muscle injury sustained during a 28-12 loss to the New Zealand Warriors. The injury occurred after Yeo was tackled in the first half of the match, and he was seen clutching his muscle. Scans will be required to confirm the extent of the injury, which could leave the Panthers without their key player for the rest of the season.

Yeo's absence would be a significant blow to the Panthers, who are currently leading the table with 36 points. Meanwhile, the Sydney Roosters have joined Penrith at the top of the ladder, having defeated the Canterbury Bulldogs 20-18. The Roosters' victory solidifies their position as a formidable contender for the minor premiership, with the race for the final playoff spot now wide open.
