The departing Panther who shapes as Penrith's finals wildcard
Jack Cole's time at Penrith is coming to an end, but ahead of his NRL finals debut his final weeks as a Panther could prove to be his most important.
Penrith Panthers' Jack Cole will take the field as the five-eighth for the club's upcoming NRL final this weekend, marking his first appearance in a finals game. After a four-year stint in the NRL, Cole's suspension for Jack Cogger has finally given him the breakthrough opportunity he's been waiting for. Cole, who will join Perth Bears next season, sees this as his chance to make a significant impact on one of the most important weeks in the Panthers' history.
Despite the frustration of waiting out soft tissue injuries and limited playing time, Cole is determined to make the most of this opportunity and help the Panthers achieve success.
