History

The early years

Varied Penrith teams had played for many years between 1912 and 1966 in the Western Districts League under the control of the Western Suburbs RLFC, in the Parramatta competition after Parramatta was admitted to the NSWRL in 1947, and also in a second-tier Sydney competition introduced by the NSWRL in 1962. The Western Suburbs Magpies are a Rugby league football club in Sydney Australia By this time a single top level rugby league team had emerge in the Penrith area and in 1964 they became known as the Penrith Panthers. The Panther had been chosen as the Penrith emblem after a public competition won by a graphic artist from Emu Plains named Deidre Copeland. Emu Plains is a Suburb of Sydney, in the state of New South Wales, Australia.

In 1966 word was out that the New South Wales Rugby League in 1967 would introduce two new teams to the Sydney premiership. There were three teams vying for the two proposed slots, Penrith, Cronulla-Sutherland, and the Wentworthville Magpies. The Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks are an Australian professional Rugby league team based in Cronulla New South Wales in the Sutherland Shire, south of Sydney Inter-District/Second Division/Metropolitan Cup During this period Wentworthville ("The Magpies" was the most successful club Cronulla-Sutherland had been assured of one place, leaving Penrith and Wentworthville to fight it out for the other place. The NSWRL eventually settling on Penrith due to their location and a win in the 1966 Second Division title.

After admission to the competition in 1967, they promptly came second last on the competition ladder. 1967 's New South Wales Rugby Football League premiership was the sixtieth season of the Rugby league football competition based in Sydney. Penrith struggled for almost 20 years before finally reaching their first finals series in 1985. 1985 's New South Wales Rugby League premiership was the seventy-eighth season of professional Rugby league football in Australia

2000 and onwards

In the year 2001, they came last on the competition ladder. Year 2001 ( MMI) was a Common year starting on Monday according to the Gregorian calendar. 2001 was Royce Simmons' last game as coach for the Panthers, and he was replaced by John Lang from Cronulla in 2002, where they finished 12th.

This showed the promise that was to come the next year. With the signing of Preston Campbell and Joe Galuvao, their side fired in 2003. Preston Campbell, (born 7 June 1977 in Inverell New South Wales) is an Australian Rugby league Joe Galuvao (born 8 July 1978) is a New Zealand Rugby league player for the Parramatta Eels in the National Rugby League Year 2003 ( MMIII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday of the Gregorian calendar.

They did however rally after that loss and once again qualified for the NRL semi-final series by finishing fourth and defeating St George Illawarra in the first week of the semi-finals before being knocked out by the Bulldogs in the Grand Final qualifier two weeks later.

The Panthers then just failed to qualify for the Top 8 in 2005 finishing two points out and in 10th spot on percentages before enduring another below-par season in 2006 this time falling well short of the finals finishing the year in 12th position. The 2007 season turned out to be a poor one for the Panthers, they won only eight games, finished last and "won" the wooden-spoon for the second time in six years after losing to the New Zealand Warriors in the last round of the regular season competition.

Colours

Penrith's uniform colours in the 1966 NSWRL Second Division and earlier years were blue and white but due to the Cronulla-Sutherland side registering a predominantly blue jersey design first, and with Newtown, Canterbury, Eastern Suburbs and Parramatta also displaying various shades of blue, Penrith went in search of an alternative. The Newtown Jets (formerly the Newtown "Bluebags") are a former first grade Rugby league club who departed the New South Wales Rugby Football League The Bulldogs Rugby League Football Club (formerly Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs and "The Berries") are an Australian professional Rugby league The Sydney Roosters is a professional Rugby league club based in the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney, Australia. The Parramatta Eels are an Australian professional Rugby league football club based in the Sydney suburb of Parramatta. A decision was made to change their colours to Brown with a white V. This decision subsequently earned them the affectionate name of the "Chocolate Soldiers" thanks to radio commentator Frank Hyde who wrote in the Penrith Club journal "these chocolate soldiers from out west - they don't melt!". In 1974 Penrith changed their strip to a jerseys with brown and white vertical bars and again in 1991 they changed the colours to Black with White, Red, Green and Yellow stripes until 2000 when they changed the colours once more to Black, Rust red, Teal green and White.

In 2004 the design of the jersey changed once more to its current design. On Thursday, November 23 2006 the club launched a new 'alternate/away' jersey predominately white in colour as a stark contrast to its main design. Just before Christmas 2007 the Panthers launched a new 'home' jersey which is predominately black with light grey claw marks on either side at the front and back.
