In a timely boost for the Panthers before their Rd 1 clash with the Bulldogs, talented local junior Blake Austin has re-signed with the club for a further 2 years.
The new deal will see the young utility stay with the club until the completion of the 2014 NRL season, with Austin himself pleased to have his future settled.
“I’m very happy to have secured my place here at Penrith, especially for my young family.”
“I’m really enjoying the new vibe around the place – there’s plenty of energy.”
“I want to remain a one club man – Penrith is my home and that’s where I want to stay.”
