BETTA Teams Selection: Round 13 v Eagles

1 July 2021

The Panthers make five changes to the squad including another debutant.

After a extremely disappointing outing to a wet and muddy Unley Oval last Saturday, the Panthers face the Eagles in a crucial clash for their top three hopes.

In some good news, young bull Liam Fitt comes back in to the side after recovering from a leg injury.

James Loneragan returns having overcome a hand injury, along with Jake Tarca and Luke Bogle.

2019 Under-18 best and fairest, and former Under-18 Captain Nicholas Kraemer will make his league debut against the Eagles.

Kraemer has averaged 16.6 disposals across his 11 reserves games in 2021 with a season high of 24 last week against Sturt.

The Panthers will wear a special guernsey designed by Flinders University Student Mya Damon, as the SANFL celebrates Indigenous Round.

With some more good news for the Reserves, ruck Cam McGree is set to play his first game for 2021 after a number of setbacks with a quad injury.

Jesse McKinnon and Jake McCreery also return to the Reserves side this week.

The Panthers and Eagles will meet for the 79th time with both teams winning two each of the past four meetings.

All the action kicks off on Saturday morning with the Reserves at the earlier time of 10:55am before the League side at 1:35pm.

Fans attending the game will be required to follow social distancing directions, including no congregating at kiosks, bars and toilets.

Patrons inside of Jimmy Deane's Bistro will need to be seated while drinking as per new restrictions from SA Health.
