It was a Sunday afternoon in May, but the Panthers and Raiders have put on September-like game of equal parts skill and intensity at GIO Stadium in Canberra.

The result was what most pundits consider might be the same as a certain Sunday in October too, the Panthers consolidating their spot on top of the ladder with a hard fought 30-18 victory.

The teams traded tries throughout the first half and were locked up just ten minutes into the second stanza before Penrith did Penrith things and choked the Raiders' attacking brilliance to run away with the match.

The Panthers were first on the scoreboard after less than five minutes when Blaize Talagi capitalised on a nice pass from Moses Leota that sent Dylan Edwards into open space.

Nathan Cleary's bid to become just the second Panther to win the coveted Dally M Medal gathered pace in Round 10 as the game's premier playmaker produced another majestic performance against the Raiders.

Cleary scored a try and landed five conversions to go with two line breaks, two try assists and seven tackle breaks as the Panthers saluted 30-18 to take their record to 9-1.

Looking to emulate Greg Alexander's 1985 Dally M success, Cleary polled five votes to take his tally to 38, seven clear of Warriors forward Jackson Ford and eight clear of fellow Panther Dylan Edwards.

The Tigers had climbed to third on the ladder before last Sunday's thumping loss to the Sharks and they will be determined to prove their early-season form was no flash in the pan.

Melbourne have won 27 of the 39 clashes between these two sides and will look to superstars Harry Grant and Cameron Munster to ensure that dominance continues.
