The Bulldogs will welcome back their three Origin stars for the clash with the Panthers at ANZ Stadium this Sunday (4pm).
David Klemmer, Josh Jackson and Brett Morris will all take their place in the starting line-up for a match that is vital to both sides.
This week's clash marks a major milestone in the coaching career of Des Hasler.
It will be the 350th NRL match that Hasler has taken charge of as a coach, combining his career at Manly and the Bulldogs.
He coached the Sea Eagles for 206 matches, before moving to the Bulldogs in 2012.
In a coincidence his first game as Head Coach for the Bulldogs was against Penrith and resulted in a 22-14 win.
IT'S a battle for the title of Best in the West when rivals the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs and Penrith Panthers unleash at ANZ Stadium.
