Please post your thoughts on this thread.

We're shot.

Petrenko should be back with Adelaide next week, too good.

Smashed! Scoreline flatters us .. Believe we can play better, but the Eagles were impressive and of all the teams Ive seen thus far, they are the ones that have exhibited a style to challenge the Dogs.

its all JAS fault

Gee, I think the SANFL community would be rapt with that!

Anyway, I did think we looked switched on from the first bounce, unfortunately it was three behinds and not three goals to start with. Another ugly game of football, but I was still impressed with our performance. McKenzie once again - he is having a purple patch - the general in the backline, and on occasional forays into the midfield. Treeby was productive in the forward lines, too.

Who is no 57 for you guys? He took so many uncontested marks it was crazy.

Heinz

Would be interested in Norwood supporters comments re: your 'game plan'.
To me, it's St. Kilda in disguise.
Hats off to Godden & the match committee for recognising it & counter acting it beautifully.
I don't know how many times, the Eagles had free players in Norwood's 50m zone in the 1st half.

Eagles were down on personel & won easily IMHO - Norwood were never in the game.

Petrenko was superb all day.
Macca is having a 'stellar' start to the season - he dominated the 1st half of the game.
Young Bocky rucked very well & Flash was superb off half back.

Very good performance by our guys - good win

Heinz? Consistently on his own?

Any chance he has had a good serve of the sponsors product and that is why no opponent wants to go near him (and no team mate will car pool with him)

Ugly exhibition of football, best part of the day was meeting fellow SAFooty-ites.

Legs continue to break down at half forward and gave up a number of uncontested marks inside their FWD 50. Having Rowe play the majority of the game outside of the forward line is hurting.

Every match except Eagles games. In a way, the anonymous style he has is a good attribute as captain. He just leads by his efforts on the ground.

Was a hard fought game of footy .I'm not certain what was worse Norowoods mini league game plan .Or the Norwoods fans in the public grand stand continual yelling out of ball everytime a pack developed !! And always blaming the umpires for every mistake the norwood players made.
And why would Norwood start every bounce up with loose players in the eagles forward line .Which then lead to the likes of maca and Jarrad and the pup to take uncontested marks !!!

Oh well at least loud eagle had the grandstand laughing Well at least the eagle fans

I really thought Norwood would dominate with the outs the eagles had . Didn't happen and its been a couple of years since the eagles won at the parade .

Well done Eagles !!
Back to the drawing board norwood.
PS
And the norwood captain was he showing something. When he ran off and kicked the u know what out of an esky by the norwood bench!!

Frustration you would think.

TOPSY,

More performances like than and 1700 crowd to a game will be a dream.

I think Norwood's tactics are to bore everyone to death.

Seriously when you have everyone back of centre for the entire game , I'm not sure what you are trying to achieve.

Every time we play Norwood its like WW!1 trench warfare.

Show some flair Norwood and back your teammates rather than wait for the mistakes of other teams.

Onballers for us very good today, McKenzie the cleanest footballer I've seen in a long time.
