This Saturday against Glenelg, South Adelaide skipper Joel Cross celebrates his 150th game in the famous blue and white jumper.
Since joining the Panthers from Scoresby in Victoria, Cross has been a loyal stalwart of the Panthers admired by many for his tenacious endeavor and dedication on the field.
His impressive list of accolades includes three Knuckey Cups, two Magarey and RO Shearman Medals, as adjudged by the competitions umpires and coaches, and four State Team and five Advertiser Team of the Year selections.
A model of consistency, Cross has never finished worse than second in the Panthers Best & Fairest voting and has only missed two games during his career in Noarlunga.
Now in his eighth season at Hickinbotham Oval, the 31-year-old is enjoying another fine season, averaging 25.7 touches a game and leading the Panthers goalkicking from the midfield.
Congratulations Crossy on 150 brilliant games. Here is to many more to come!
