West are poving to be the real deal and are a realistic top 5 team, underestimate the bloods and you will pay.

Ohh boy, the Hill would be ready to roll now....

Yep, time for Hill to step aside.
He's obviously put a lot of effort into the job, but he's not the man for the role.

West dominated out of the middle all day. Add in guys like Webb and Willits who marked everything in sight up forward and its what won them the game.

Didnt think Norwood played badly, but it was similar to last week, in the game at 3/4 time then didnt give a whimper in the last quarter.

I wouldn't be to surprised if Westies managed to sneak into the 5.

That's West's highest score since Aug 12, 2007.

I liked the way the players didnt jump around and they took everything in their stride...almost like they are becoming use to, and expecting to win. Lobbe great pick up for Bloods, rucked all day agaist 2 Norwood opponents and beat them easily. If only Willets could kick straight.

At the expense of who ?

Did Norwood play that same game of handball, handball, handball?

Nup no chance, six of their last eight games are against Sturt x 2, North x 2, Glenelg and Centrals. Other two games are Eagles and Port.

Expect them to make the finals next year when they play Port, Norwood, South and Centrals 3 times.

Not really, at half time they had 66 marks to Wests 31. Alot of chipping around.

Six easy wins

According to RPH (S Borlace) apparently their kick:handball ratio was 1:1

No, we tried something different today. Instead of handballing to each other, we handballed to West players instead. You can't complain about the skills today .. there weren't any.

Bitch status achieved for West>Norwood??

So what? Everyone's better than Norwood. You really can't take anything away from a match with Norwood, except the 2 premiership points of course.

We may have beaten South twice this season, but we are easily the worst team in the competition.

West have a coach .... we don't.

I watched most of the game on tv and it must be said that Norwood were pathetic. Well done to the Bloods who deserved the win.

There is absolutely no spirit in this 'Legs team, they seem to be playing as individuals, don't do any of the hard things and don't run, and if Soda's 3Q time report on Hill is correct, then he's completely lost the players.

For those at the ground who heard Hill's 3Q address, did he really say that he's had a gut full that the players don't listen to the coaches and asked them what they thought they should do in the last? If this is true then I'd agree with the many 'Legs supporters that have been asking for Hill's head, and more importantly, shows that the team is in disarray as they showed nothing in the last.

The positive out of the game is the continued improvement of the Bloods, and good on them to play mainly attacking footy in the last to wrap up the match.

Norwood supporters have been telling people that for weeks. Nothing new so far as we're concerned. I just cannot watch Norwood play any more, it is just too frustrating and I derive no pleasure from it whatsoever.
