BETTA Team Selection: SANFL Round 17 v Adelaide

6 August 2025

After a brave performance against the unbeaten Ladder Leaders, the Panthers will now turn their attention to the Crows on Saturday afternoon at Magain Stadium.

When these two sides met back in Round 9, the Panthers started strongly despite challenging conditions, but were edged out by just a single point.

There will be one forced change to the side, with Cal Mcarty ruled out after suffering a concussion in the early stages of last week's match against Sturt.

His absence creates an opportunity for Ryan Borlace (Yankalilla), who will become the eighteenth debutant of the season when he takes the field for his first Hostplus SANFL League match on Saturday.

Young gun Phoenix Hargrave returns to the squad, while Jacob Collins and Tye Gander have also been added to the extended squad. The final team of twenty two will be confirmed by the first bounce on Saturday afternoon.

In the Reserves, the team responded strongly last week against Sturt and will be looking to continue their push for top spot with a win over Central District.

The action begins on Saturday morning, with the Reserves kicking off slightly earlier at 11:20 am, followed by the League match at the traditional start time of 2:10 pm.
