Voting begins for the Panthers Ultimate Team

The two greatest sides in Panthers history go head-to-head this week as members and fans select their Panthers Ultimate Team.

From Monday to Sunday, the iconic players of the 1991 and 2003 Grand Final sides will battle it out for your votes. 

Polls for each position will be run twice daily on the Panthers Facebook, Twitter and Instagram accounts, while votes can also be lodged on the Panthers website (see below).

Panthers Ultimate Team is a chance to specifically honour the legends and the underdogs who contributed to the club's premiership success and certainly throws up some interesting dilemmas.

For starters Panthers Hall of Fame inductees Greg Alexander and Craig Gower go head-to-head over the halfback position, while Brad Fittler and Ryan Girdler duel it out in the centres.

The Panthers' inaugural Grand Final victory over Canberra Raiders in 1991 was the culmination of two years of top-shelf Rugby League and saw hooker Royce Simmons cement his place in Penrith folklore.

Simmons, playing his final game before retirement, scored two crucial tries in the 19-12 victory.

Fast forward to 2003 and a team stacked with local juniors and attacking flair shocked the competition to deliver the club's second premiership.

This time it was hooker Luke Priddis who stole the show, claiming the coveted Clive Churchill Medal with two try assists and a four-pointer of his own in the 18-6 victory over the Roosters.

The 1991 side features seven players named in the Panthers Team of Legends, which was picked in 2006, compared to four from the 2003 premiership team.

Both victories are etched in history but the question remains, who will make your Panthers Ultimate Team?

Submit your votes for the starting side below and feel free to vote on the social media polls as well. Voting for the bench spots will open later this week.
