WEST
West Adelaide has rushed back premiership captain Chris Schmidt for its contest against South Adelaide on Sunday.

Schmidt, who hasn’t played since Round 6 due to a knee injury, has been named on a five-man extended interchange bench together with fellow inclusion Dallas Willsmore.

Exciting goalsneaks Gibson Turner and Ken Karpany have returned to the starting 18 after being named inside the Bloods’ attacking 50m arc.

Tall utility Chol Majok was sent back to the Reserves while journeyman Nigel Osborn couldn’t be considered due to work commitments.

SOUTH
South Adelaide is set to start veteran utility Alex Cailotto in defence against West on Sunday.

Cailotto, who was a revelation in the ruck against Norwood in Round 9, missed the Panthers’ win against Glenelg with a calf injury.

The 27-year-old has been named at centre-half back with exciting Reynella prospect Cam McGree to start in the ruck.

Dashing half-back Emmanuel Irra has also been included in the 23-man squad, with the former Power rookie named on a five-man extended interchange bench.

Irra, who had 22 disposals in the Reserves in Round 10, hasn’t played at League level since Round 6 while recovering from a quad strain.

[DOC]

I can barely remember the last game South played due to the never ending bye state split rounds that all football supporters love, except for those that like to go to the game. But who cares about them.

If South are to play finals (even though Glenelg will win the flag in a cakewalk,) they can not afford to slip up here. Looking forward to this one.

South by a point.

[gazzamagoo]

South please, I don't want to finish bottom.

[PanthersFan]

South should win by 4 or 5 goals, however, “should” doesn’t get the win. We need to back up our effort and performance from the Glenelg game and we need to come out firing. We can’t afford to be lacklustre or Westies will punish us at Richmond. My man the E-Man is back, he was showing good form before his injury so I’m looking forward to seeing him play again. Go Panthers!

[PatowalongaPirate]

Panfers by 37pts.

South by 11 points in front of a crowd of 915 .

Yep the wait has been too long. I woke up this morning and thought “yay the Panthers are playing today” but of course I was wrong, still one more sleep to go!!

[PanthersFan]

Yay the Panthers are playing today!

[DOC]

No rain today. A 1000 plus crowd awaits.

[PanthersFan]

Wow what a shocking first quarter. The ground is a mud heap and West playing the conditions much better. South trying to be too fancy and too many skill errors and selfishness. Not a good start.

Quarter time
West 2.2
South 0.5

[therisingblues]

And here come the Panthers. 2-5 to 0-2 at 22 mins in for the Q

[PanthersFan]

A much better effort that quarter, just need to polish up the goal kicking! Fantastic passage of play to end the quarter starting with desperate defence by Tyson Brown who then started a great link of kicks to the forward line and Cross finishing with a great mark and goal.

Half time
West 2.4
South 3.10

[PanthersFan]

Wow goals goals goals!

3QT
West 5.4
South 8.13

[PanthersFan]

A forgetful last quarter sees the Panthers get the 2 points by 28 points.

FT
West 5.10 40
South 9.14 68

[PanthersFan]

I thought South adjusted well after quarter time and fixed the goal kicking in the second half (except Kyle Emery who kicked 1.4). A crucial win to stay in the five. Haines, Karpany and Liddle the best for me with good contributions by Schwarz, Cross, Noble, McGree, Cailotto and Heaslip. Emery would have been a star if he kicked straight, I like how he plays the game though. Go Panthers!

[DOC]

Haines played his best game. 12 marks and 9 rebound 50's. leading possession getter on the field. 6 votes.

West started the game well and South kept them in it with some dreadful goal kicking and sloppy tackling. West sent Jack Evans to tag Liddle and when that wasn't working, sent him to Cross. That didn't work either. I think he is going home with either of them he was that close.

Chris Schmidt showed why he is one of the best in the league with 10 tough tackles. Great player. He clearly has an injured knee still, did not want to kick and did little running compared to his normal self,

Karpeny continues to improve, Brad Crabb very solid and Nic Schwarz is the inclusion we needed in the middle.

Crowd way above expectations. At least 1100. Good BBQ and very cold beer.

[Spargo]

South’s flag to lose.

[DOC]

Biggest crowd of the weekend. Over 1300!

[saintal]

Thanks for the recaps guys, interstate atm and haven’t been able to watch the game. Handy 2 points, couldn’t afford to drop another game at Richmond.

[PanthersFan]

Joel Cross offered a reprimand and fine for striking. What an absolute joke! The bloke gets beaten up every week and gets nothing, he’s just such a champion and plays well regardless of what thuggery comes his way!
