Jason Taylor has laid out the challenge to Luke Brooks and Mitchell Moses, telling the Wests Tigers young halves to prove themselves with the pressure on.Brooks will make a timely comeback from a knee complaint when the Tigers NRL season goes on the line against Penrith at Pepper Stadium on Friday night.Of the Tigers current squad, just seven members have played finals football and coach Taylor is applying the blow torch as he seeks to take his young side to the next level.Brooks and Moses jobs will be made harder with fullback James Tedesco almost certain to miss the rest of the year with a broken jaw and Taylor said it shapes as the biggest test of their young careers.Playing in semi-finals is something we havent done for a few years so the young players in our team havent tasted it, Taylor said.We got a dose of it the last couple of weeks and that is to play under the pressure of needing to perform and needing to get a result.Those games are big and we look forward to them.Tedescos injury will see Jordan Rankin move to fullback and Josh Addo-Carr onto the wing.The Panthers could welcome back Chris Grevsmuhl from an elbow injury.A loss to the seventh-placed Panthers could see the Tigers drop to three points behind eighth spot with two games remaining, a big deficit to reel in.The Panthers victory would almost certainly seal a finals berth however Anthony Griffins side face another pressure test next week against eighth-placed Gold Coast.Its a semi-final game, Taylor said.The great thing is were playing in games where we need to win. And I like that - it adds some pressure to what were doing because thats where we want to be.We want to be playing in semi-finals, we want to be learning about games where the pressure is on and we need to win.STATS THAT MATTER* Four of the past six matches between the sides have been decided by 10 points or less.* Fifteen of Penriths 21 matches this season have been decided by eight points or less.

LONDON -- Gareth Southgate will remain in charge of Englands national team.An English Football Association panel has decided to hire Southgate as Sam Allardyces permanent successor, people with knowledge of the situation said Tuesday. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they are not authorized to discuss the decision before the FA board ratifies the appointment on Wednesday at the national teams St. Georges Park base in central England.Southgate was hastily promoted from the under-21 team in September when Allardyce was forced out after one game over unguarded comments to undercover reporters posing as businessmen. The FA believed that damaged the coachs integrity.Southgate was unbeaten in his four games as interim coach, winning two World Cup qualifiers (Scotland and Malta), drawing another (Slovenia) and also drawing a friendly with Spain. England leads its 2018 World Cup qualifying group by two points.Southgate is expected to sign a contract, with a 2018 break clausse, through to the 2020 European Championship, which will have the semifinals and final staged at Wembley Stadium.ddddddddddddThe 46-year-old Southgate was a defender in the England side that reached the Euro `96 semifinals at Wembley and missed the decisive penalty in the shootout against Germany. The country has only won one title in its history -- the 1966 World Cup on home soil.Southgate will take over a team still picking up the pieces from a dismal Euro 2016 campaign which saw England humbled by tournament newcomer Iceland in the round of 16. The loss ended Roy Hodgsons tenure as coach.Although Southgate has spent three years within the FA, he is one of the least experienced first-team managers to be entrusted with one of the most high-profile jobs in world soccer.?His only top managerial role with Middlesbrough ended in 2009 after three years.
