Joel Monaghan will make a last-ditch bid to save his Australian Kangaroos jersey on Saturday night, when the Raiders take on Penrith at Canberra Stadium.
The Canberra Times understands Monaghan is on the outer with Australian selectors, who will name their team for next Friday's Anzac Test on Sunday.
With just one game left to state his claims for the clash with world champion New Zealand, Monaghan would need a huge performance against the Panthers to retain his spot on Australia's wing.
If his game doesn't sway the selectors, who are poised to name an all-Queensland backline for the rematch of last year's World Cup final, he will be named in the centres for Country Origin's clash with City in Orange on the same night.
