BETTA Team Selection: SANFL Round 18 v Woodville West-Torrens
The Panthers return to Magain Stadium for their final home game of the season this weekend. Despite a valiant effort, the Panthers fell short against the Crows last week, but they'll be looking to bounce back and challenge the Eagles in what promises to be an exciting clash.
Panthers fans are in for a double delight this Saturday as Tye Gander (St. George) is set to make his Hostplus SANFL League debut. Additionally, Ben Shillabeer makes his long awaited return to the League side after a strong run of form in the Reserves following his recovery from injury.
Lachlan Gill, Hayden Kernahan, and Will McCarthy have been named in the extended squad, while Dakota Sterzl and Brad Jefferies will line up for the Reserves this week.
Congratulations to Jake Summerton, who will celebrate a major milestone by playing his 150th Hostplus SANFL League match—fittingly against the club where his journey began. Jake caught up with the SANFL's Zac Milbank to chat about his journey to 150 SANFL League games.
The Reserves had another dominant day out last weekend, with a 53-point win over the Dogs. Still hot on the heels of Glenelg for top spot, they'll be looking to keep the momentum going this weekend.
It all kicks off nice and early with the Reserves at 10:30AM, followed by the League side at 1:10PM. Don’t miss your final opportunity to support the Panthers at home in 2025—head down to Magain Stadium this Saturday and get behind the boys!
