How the Panthers and Warriors can win the NRL minor premiership
The NRL minor premiership is still up for grabs heading into the final day of the home-and-away season, with the New Zealand Warriors on top and the Penrith Panthers ready to pounce.
The New Zealand Warriors lead the NRL minor premiership after a recent victory, while the Penrith Panthers have the potential to reclaim top spot. A win by the Panthers on Sunday would allow them to finish first, with the Warriors needing only a slim victory to maintain their position. Both teams are set to finish in the top two, each hosting two matches in the finals, including qualifying finals and a preliminary final.
If the Panthers and Warriors finish with identical points and point differentials, the tiebreaker is determined by dividing points for by points against and multiplying by 100. The Panthers hold a slight advantage in point differential (+308 to +310), meaning a narrow one-point Panthers win over Wests Tigers would likely secure them the minor premiership.
