BETTA Team Selection: Reserves QF v Norwood
Following a gritty nine point win over the Bloods last week to round out the home and away season, the Panthers Reserves will be looking to make a strong start to their finals campaign.
The Reserves will be bolstered by several handy inclusions, with Charlie Duncan returning after recovering from a hamstring complaint, Sam Foley back from suspension and Harvey Lambert returning from concussion. Kyle Marshall, Bailey Pilmore and Archie Van Dyk will also come back into the side after featuring at League level.
Also returning from League duties is interim League Head Coach Jack Maher, who will take back the reins of the Reserves for the remainder of the season.
After finishing third, the Panthers secured a double chance. A win would see them take on the top of the table Tigers next week down the Bay, while a loss would set up a clash with the winner of West Adelaide and Woodville West-Torrens.
The Reserves will get underway at the slightly earlier time of 10:20am on Saturday morning at Coopers Stadium, before the Elimination Final between the Bloods and Eagles.
