The Panthers will be fresh after coming off the bye and full of confidence after their impressive win against Glenelg in round 18.
They come up against a West Adelaide side who will be hoping to recapture their early season form. To do this they will need to find multiple goalkicking options, however I can't see them kicking a big enough score at Hickinbotham to notch up the win.
I'll select the Panthers by 5 goals.

Everything points to South winning this game but I reckon Westies will pinch it by 5 goals...

People are only thinking perhaps finals for SA
Think again
IF SA beat WA they are 1 point behind WWT and the double chance

Interesting fact that South's last 2 premierships ('64 & '35
) have come after wooden spoons the year prior. Surely lightning couldn't strike a third time?!
That said, this week concerns me slightly. Not played for 3 weeks, and Westies 'due' for a win...

3 week break is not a benefit at this time of year. Tipping West.

West will get run off their feet & their march to The Spoon will coninue on its merry way! South by 28 points.

This is probably the Panthers' biggest match since the 2006 finals series. A win in this one will more than likely ensure a finals berth in September.
However, West have improved and will be playing for their season as a loss will dash any chance of playing finals footy.
South will win plenty of the footy, with their very much underated but lightening quick midfield, but I worry that in defence the Panthers are horribly short in most matchups particularly without Talia and Mckernan.
South to win but it wont be easy.

going down to Norwood by a couple of kicks is a vast improvement on their effort which I witnessed v Eagles a couple of weeks ago, when they were smashed.

Norwood aren't travelling too well right now & they know it.

You need a new abacus mal ...
Eagles play Glenelg this week, usually someone wins.
If Eagles, then they'll be 3 points ahead of South, if the Bays 2 points (assuming South win).

Mmmmmm...not sure on this one.
No Talia or McKernan. 3 weeks off does not help.......we must switch on from the start.
I think we will get over the line but it will not be a easy one.
South by less than 2 goals.

Not Norwood champ.
But the lowest FOR in the comp and only 3 scores over 100 suggests West wont score enough goals.
