Young Penrith playmaker Te Maire Martin will miss the rest of the NRL season due to a shoulder injury.
New Zealand-born Martin suffered the injury in the Panthers' round eight loss to Cronulla on Sunday at Shark Park.
The 20-year-old, who was playing in his first season of NRL, has been diagnosed with a displaced shoulder and he will undergo surgery on the injury.
Penrith supremo Phil Gould confirmed the news on Tuesday evening.
"Te Maire Martin - fractured glenoid (shoulder). Displaced. Terrible injury, very painful & will require surgery Unfortunately out for season," Gould wrote on Twitter.
