Back at home for a second successive week, the Panthers take on reigning wooden spooners North Adelaide who looked pretty good in a gallant loss to West Adelaide<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HEAD-TO-HEAD<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>South Adelaide:<\/strong> 6<br><strong>North Adelaide: <\/strong>8<br><strong>Draw: <\/strong>1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These two sides have met a whopping 15 times over the years, including in successive grand finals between 2019 and 2020 where they split the different. While North had won six out of seven to close out the Roosters&#8217; premiership year of 2022, the Panthers have since won three of the past four, including thrashings of 42 and 51 points last season as they went on to win the flag.<\/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, Carly Milsom<br><strong>HB:<\/strong> Samantha Pratt, Jaslynne Smith, Esther Schirmer<br><strong>C:<\/strong> Melissa Anderson, Caitlin Couch, Emma Charlton<br><strong>HF:<\/strong> Lily Baxter, Tamika May, Shae Archbold<br><strong>F:<\/strong> Lauren Clifton, Emily Brockhurst<br><strong>R<\/strong>: Soriah Moon, Jordann Hickey, Layla Vizgaudis<br><strong>INT:<\/strong> Laquoiya Cockatoo-Motlap, Doreena Hansen, Molly Jenkins, Brylee Kerrin, Taya Maxwell, Marley Tape, Hope Taylor, Abby Woodward<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>North Adelaide:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>B: <\/strong>Lara Harding, Jamie Parish<br><strong>HB:<\/strong> Lauren Hoffmann, Ella Metcalfe, Laela Ebert<br><strong>C:<\/strong> Lauren Gauci, Djimila Totham, Erin Sundstrom<br><strong>HF:<\/strong> Amber Ward, Julia Clark, Aprille Crooks<br><strong>F: <\/strong>Polly Turner, Iris Newman<br><strong>R:<\/strong> Brooke Wilson, Ashleigh George, Zara Molloy<br><strong>INT:<\/strong> Anja Bancevic, Imogen Cunningham, Sasha Hardin, Caitlin Hardin, Tiara Hatchard, Bailey Murray, Lucy Reddaway, Libby Taylor<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>CHANGES<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>South Adekaude has named an extended bench for the match, with the Panthers bringing in potential State Academy member debutant <a data-type=\"player\" data-id=\"181621\" class=\"_dc_spo\" href=\"\/afl\/player\/hope-taylor\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Hope Taylor<\/a> as well as <a data-type=\"player\" data-id=\"182196\" class=\"_dc_spo\" href=\"\/afl\/player\/molly-jenkins\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Molly Jenkins<\/a> and <a data-type=\"player\" data-id=\"125267\" class=\"_dc_spo\" href=\"\/afl\/player\/abby-woodward\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Abby Woodward<\/a>.
