Round 5 South V North Post Match

[The Sleeping Giant]

6.30 is ok on a weekend but Friday night for both players and spectators having to finish work and get to the ground proves an issue and has in the past with the really early ressies start so I can understand 7.10 start at Richmond and Norwood and 7.40 for the further out grounds.

Perhaps then South should host their night games on Saturday's only? If they want people to rock up, make it more appealing. While they are at it, get rid of the knob with the microphone.

if a 7:40 start, 10ish finish is that big a deal, book a motel down there and make a whole night of it, FFS it's just 1 late night a year, if that is the only thing you've got to winge about like must be pretty cruisy at the moment!

but you groggys ARE getting old.........I mean to say, a GRANDFATHER??

There is 2 now.

did O'Sullivan play & how is he going?

Yes he did. He is still struggling but I did think he showed a little bit more dash than he had previously. He had 5 kicks and 5 handballs and scored a goal. At the moment if we were full at full strength he would struggle to make the side.

Interesting time for North.

The Taylor Walker injury looks to have big ramifications for the Roosters with Lewis Johnston being the obvious replacement.

Could be - but he hasn't been in great form last 2 weeks and McKernan is apparently ahead of him at this stage.

Your probably right but give me Johnston any day of the week.

The Doc just said it may only be a strain and a couple of weeks.

Problem for Johnston is he perfect height for SANFL key forward but is too short I think for AFL but I guess he has to be givne a crack. Chance for Johnny Boras to come back if we lose Johnston seeing our other key big man did his hammy in his first game last night in the ressies.

I think Lewis may have got injured last night at Noarlunga?

[on the rails]

He looked a bit proppy but came back on so may be ok?

Yeah, I thought so. He looked very sore when I was in the North rooms post game interviewing my man Nathan Gordon

Did see Lewis at Woodville today, watching the Eagles v Port game, with a noticable limp...

Very similar to Daniel Havelberg in that regard.

With Walker out for the crows, Johnson may get his chance with the crows - sorry just saw the posts above (Very slow off the mark )

Not even in the same planet when it comes to talent.

Agreed. He looked pretty ordinary in the ressies last night too.

[the joker]

I didn't say he was as good. It will be a big loss. Probably the best forward in the SANFL

(Who will be back in 2013 in the Red, White & Blue!)

Boras did ok considering he spent half the game at CHB and even had a stint in the ruck. His leadership and voice out on the ground was good.

Given what I was told last night Johnston will be at North for awhile unless the Crows get more injuries. Apparently McKernan is ahead of him simply because he can also ruck.

LOL, the irony after the reason South, Glenelg and Adelaide gave for his move.

[the joker]

The crows don't need another ruck/forward they need a stay at home forward and that's Lewis
