The Panthers make up to 4 changes for Saturday morning's showdown with the Roosters. 

In what is a relatively settled line up, the Panthers are set to welcome back key forward Jess Kirk who has recovered from a hand injury. 

The prolific forward is also set to be joined by Caitlin Ross and Layla Rogers who both return having missed due to health and safety protocols. 

Esther Schirmer is also a chance to return should she pass a fitness test. 

While Saturday's match will be no doubt be another chapter in the greatest rivalry in the SANFLW, journeywomen and former Rooster Nicole Collie will join the 50-game club. 

Collie started with the Redlegs in 2017 before making her way across to the Roosters in 2018, where she would play two seasons with North Adelaide including the 2019 Grand Final. 

2020 and 2021 would see her move to the Eagles before coming across to the Panthers in 2022. 

All the action kicks off bright and early on Saturday morning at 9:00 am followed by the South Adelaide Reserves.
