Centrals should only need to kick 6 or 7 goals to win
Think they will win easily

Only if Colllins implements the same game plan as the GF

Going along to this one, plenty of free tickets floating around again.

The Warden has given me time off for good behaviour so will be able to get to the game Thursday night...

Love SANFL footy

West will win

Yeah i reckon West will win in a tight one with 11-13 goals.

Central have played terrible at Richmond the last couple of years and would need a huge turnaround to pull of the win.

For Centrals biggest weakness is key defenders and with Sibenaler looking like he will be out injured i think its crucial Hardy plays at full back. He was brilliant there in the final trial game and adds much needed height and strength. We can cover his absense easier in the forward lines than we can down back.

AFL selections will have an impact on this game with the possibility of there being 5-6 AFL listed players selected between the two sides, all who would be very important to their sides chances.

Cant wait, dont have work Thursday-Tuesday so will be having a massive night on the decking bar, the second best viewing at SANFL football.

Thanks to CDFC sponsor SEW Eurodrive, here is the Doggies squad for tomorrow night...

No Ian Callinan for the Dogs...

Our (Centrals) side looks significantly different. Potentially 8 newbies, versus West experience this could get ugly like the last couple of years for us.
