South Adelaide have gotten their trial game series off to a winning start after recording a 44-point victory over Sturt at Hickinbotham Oval.

In sweltering condition that saw the temperature hit high 30s and invoked the SANFL Heat Policy - enforcing two minute stoppages in play at the halfway point of each quarter and longer game breaks between quarters - the Panthers led at every change to run out comfortable winners.

Matt Rose led the way for South, with 23 kicks, 7 handballs and 11 marks in the backlines.

Returning recruit Cam de Visser also saw plenty of the ball (23 possessions and 13 marks), while Tarak Redigolo (19 disposals) and Jake Veide (19 touches and 8 marks) also succesfully negotiated their return to action after suffering season ending injuries at the tail end of 2015.

Excitement machine Emmanuel Irra was also busy with 19 touches and new recruit Richard Newell (19 possessions) made his debut in the blue and white jumper.

The Panthers now look forward to taking on Adelaide Crows SANFL team at AAMI Stadium on Saturday 12 March at 11:00am (League only).
