Ahead of his move to Perth Bears, Jack Cole shapes as Penrith's NRL finals wildcard
- Jack Cole's chance on the NRL's biggest stage has been a long time coming, but now the Penrith five-eighth could shape as the Panthers finals wildcard.
- Sunday's semi-final against the Sydney Roosters will be just his fifth game of the year and 22nd of his career since his debut four years ago.
- Cole has spent the time since in and out of first grade, and while the 23-year old was always part of the team he only sporadically strapped up on match day, especially as the season heated up.
