The Panthers lost yet another game to the Bulldogs at Elizabeth - a venue they haven't won at since 1999, but were coming off back to back wins at home, where they had struggled earlier in the year, not winning a game their at all, prior to the West win.

Glenelg are languishing in last place, having dropped their last eight games straight and are looking very unlikely to avoid the wooden spoon, at this stage. They have some very good young kids though and just need some confidence through the group.

These two Southern Suburbs neighbours often have pretty close contests, including a draw there last year, from memory. This will be a very important game for both sides and should be a close, hard fought battle.

South by 50 points.

Ahhh Good old Spoon Day has arrived!!
South to win by 10 goals
Bays a real chance to end up with a percentage of under 30.

Bays to start their eleven game winning streak.

Us by 15 pts

we love this ground, we saluted good friday, won theRE last year after looking gone with 10 minutes remaining, got robbed by the magots in 2011 which gifted south a share of the points, havent lost there since the first round of 2008 - GO TIGES!

10,9,8,7,6...

Bays by 3 goals.....they play well at Noarlunga.....we play crap against them there.

If played on Bay oval...we would win.

Can't see Glenelg winning another game for the year. They should be renamed Greater Western Adelaide. Just plain woeful.

South by 100.

We are just crap at the moment...so usual ritual before the game.....

After setting a new club record for the worst average losing margin over 8 games last week, the main interest will be in whether we can avoid setting a new record for the worst average losing margin over 9 games. We will avoid it if we lose by 45 points or less (or win!)

previous record average losing margin over 9 games = 62.3 points in 1921

current average losing margin for the last 8 games is 64.1 points

1921 was part of a 56 game losing streak. I am sure that this losing streak won't be anywhere near that bad.

South will be trying to keep it continuing

If we cannot beat the bays this Saturday we deserve to finish bottom!
We usually have good tussles but with the amount of younger players in their league side one would think we should prevail.
I honestly thought both teams would be much better than they have performed, another wasted year for both clubs!!!

Surely this week will be the time to bring back the Panther Roar!!

Watched the Panthers last week. Some good passages of play and some quick players. Their main problem was poor finishing skills / execution and decision making which cost them too many turnovers. I'd like to see Crabb, in particular, have some lessons in being more decisive and using his experience to advantage.
Only time I have seen them this year, but they look a more polished side than the Bays at the moment who are really floundering.

I'd be more than happy to have the panther roar back if it meant getting rid of that stupid horn they blast out from the past players ATCO hut up on the hill...

Is that where it comes from?
I just thought it was some hillbilly in his ute

How dare they!

Im sure the Centrals supporters would feel at home with it sounding off...unlike you precious Sturt lot.
