Both sides are coming off disappointing losses, and just about nothing separates them on the ladder. Who will jump one game clear?

Is this game televised?

Why would it be on a Friday night...duh.

before the weekend i was looking forward to this clash, after the weekend i'm looking forward to it but with some different context to it, Newton v Eddy is a highlight in itself, i think Norwood at home in a thriller by 8 points

No matches televised this weekend.

Weather permitting, I think this game should be a bottler. Both teams should come out breathing fire with a point to prove after last weekends game. Flip the coin for the winner with a margin of less than 3 goals.

so with a reported million bucks going to ch 7 & they miss a week, have they missed other weeks ? i'd say ch 7 is laughing all the way to the bank

The ABC televised a game every week, funny that.

They missed the second week of the first split round too, and of course the State Game.

I think they're contracted to do one game per round so they get out of doing one of the weeks of a split round on that technicality.

All going well at Pantherland..

Cameron De Visser - Ankle - Season
Dalton Tucker - Knee - Indefinite
Daniel Bass - Ankle - 2 weeks
Jackson McMahon -Knee - 4 weeks
Lachlan Boyd - Shoulder - Season
Lewis Makepeace - Knee - Season
Tarak Redigolo - Knee- Season
Sam Richman - Knee - Season
Luke Durdin- Hamstring- Season
Peter Rolfe- Knee -indefinite

Norwood at home for me.

I am probably being a bit harsh on them because it is a split round and they most likely will televise a game next week.

They only did one game in the split round a few weeks ago too.

They're doing Port vs Adelaide next week.

Norwood by 44

Norwood to win, South on the slide.

i don't know if it has been mentioned, apologies if it has, live streaming of this game on the sanfl website

only problem is scores going up before you see the score, having worked late i'm appreciative of the live streaming, Norwood stopping to a walk again

Did South only make an appearance after 1/4time

Interesting initiative last night by the SANFL - this game was live streamed with vision:

Yes, I watched it for a short while and it was good. Matched to the RPH call.

Great initiative.

I watched it for most of the last quarter to see if Norwood were playing anyone   

This must somehow be all the fault of Ron Fuller..

He's doing a good job with Sturt's Under 18s.

In the words of the late great Rik Mayall - "We're getting thrashed, we're getting completely thrashed. Isn't there some way we can cheat?"

Other than that I am not sure what other options are left for the Panthers this season!
