South Adelaide is the form team of the competition, and since its forgettable loss to Norwood in Round 8, has strung six wins on the bounce, after winning five consecutive games prior to that defeat as well. Glenelg on the other hand has looked shaky at times, with one win &#8211; one-point victory over Eagles last week &#8211; and a draw amongst three losses in its past five games.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HEAD-TO-HEAD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>South Adelaide:<\/strong> 9<br><strong>Glenelg:<\/strong> 5<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Adelaide has won the past four matches against the Bays, including both games this year by a combined 76 points. The nine-goal victory over the then top of the table Glenelg just a fortnight ago was dominant, but the Bays were also missing a host of key players. Prior to the last two seasons, Glenelg had won four consecutive matches themselves including the first finals appearance against the Panthers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>TEAMS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>South Adelaide:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>B: <\/strong>Tiffany King (14), Jaslynne Smith (35)<br><strong>HB: <\/strong>Sam Pratt (22), Esther Schirmer (23), Carly Milsom (45)<br><strong>C: <\/strong>Laquoiya Cockatoo-Motlap (11), Mel Anderson (6), Emma Charlton (25)<br><strong>HF: <\/strong>Lily Baxter (56), Lucy Northcott (12), Emily Brockhurst (13)<br><strong>F: <\/strong>Jordann Hickey (4), Doreena Hansen (26)<br><strong>R: <\/strong>Soriah Moon (32), Caitlin Couch (10), Nikki Nield (2)<br><strong>INT: <\/strong>Taya Maxwell (19), Lauren Clifton (41), Shae Archbold (17), Charlotte Dolan (28), Layla Vizgaudis (20), Litonya Cockatoo-Motlap (15), Morgan Johnston (1), Sarah Wright (5)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Glenelg:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>B: <\/strong>Lauren Edwards (34), Alex Walker (24)<br><strong>HB: <\/strong>Ellen Tyminski (18), Marie Martino (15), Tamsyn Morriss (12)<br><strong>C: <\/strong>Madi Freeman (2), Violet Patterson (6), Georgie Fielder (59)<br><strong>HF:<\/strong> Sam Franson (5), Jordan Horne (11), Grace Duffy (10)<br><strong>F: <\/strong>Jess Searle (23), Shay\u2019Lee Dayman (4)<br><strong>R:<\/strong> Alex Pearce (30), Jo Miller (32), Matilda Wilmore (19)<br><strong>INT: <\/strong>Ash Dyer (1), Ellie Kellock (8), Jorja Eldridge (28), Jess Bates (29), Eloise Mackereth (9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CHANGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Glenelg has brought back a couple of huge inclusions for the clash, with star ball-winner and league best and fairest favourite <a data-type=\"player\" data-id=\"92612\" class=\"_dc_spo\" href=\"\/afl\/player\/jessica-bates\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Jessica Bates<\/a>, and premiership skipper <a data-type=\"player\" data-id=\"93366\" class=\"_dc_spo\" href=\"\/afl\/player\/ellie-kellock\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ellie Kellock<\/a> both inclusions for the team.

Glenelg ranked fifth in both categories, recording 34.7 and 34.2 respectively. However the Bays are the number one tackling and clearance team in the competition, with figures of 85.8 and 28.8 respectively, while South ranks third and fourth in those regards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>PREDICTION<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Adelaide&#8217;s form is sensational to say the least, and barring another &#8216;off&#8217; game like the one to Norwood, it is difficult to see the Panthers losing. They are flag favourites for a reason, though the Bays welcoming back both Bates and Kellock will give the midfield some extra punch and provide much needed experience around the ball..<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-dc-block-dc-mention _dc_mention\"><div class=\"section-heading_wrap\"><span class=\"section-heading
