The Panthers managed to hold Glenelg in the second to three goals while Jackson Elmes kicked two goals for the home side.

Meanwhile, an impressive kick by Panther debutant Monyjath Makoi saw him kick his first while wearing the blue and white and Souths third goal for the quarter.

Makoi would go on to finish his promising Panther debut performance with six disposals, 25 hit outs and two tackles.

There were some promising signs for the Panthers as Elmes kicked his third goal of the match.

However, the Tigers would respond with four unanswered goals to finish the quarter and to give the Panthers a 5.4 (34) to 14.8 (92) deficit at the final change.

Samuel Whitbread kicked his first goal of the game to compliment his performance that saw him total 19 disposals and seven tackles.

Elmes would go on to kick his fourth goal of the match in an impressive performance up forward that also saw him gather seven marks and 14 disposals.

Jesse McKinnon was also busy around the ground, collecting 21 disposals, five marks and six inside 50s.

But it wasn't enough as the visitors continued to kick away to give the Panthers a 7.6 (48) to 18.13 (121) defeat.

The Panthers now enjoy a weekend off before heading to City Mazda Stadium to versus West Adelaide on Sunday, June 30, from 11:30am.
