CENTRAL
Central District could regain a promising midfielder when it hosts Adelaide on Saturday.

Brendan Dew, who has missed the past two matches with a knee injury, has been recalled to the Bulldogs’ 22-man squad.

The year-old has been listed on the four-man extended interchange bench which must be trimmed by one before the bounce.

Bulldogs ball magnet Travis Schiller will play his 100th Statewide Super League match after making his debut in Round 1 2014.

ADELAIDE
Adelaide will gain plenty of creativity when it has a classy forward make his team debut against Central on Saturday.

Former Sturt goalsneak Shane McAdam has been listed to start on the wing as he prepares for his first Statewide Super League game for the Crows after overcoming a calf injury.

McAdam has been joined by promising first-year players Ned McHenry and Chayce Jones as well as Jordan Gallucci and development player Billy Hayes.

RAA Rookie James Mathews won’t be afforded the opportunity to back up his eye-catching debut after injuring his adductor while Myles Pholke was rewarded for his stunning first half against the Panthers, with his final stat line reading 30 disposals, eight marks, four goals and five clearances.

Be a tight contest. Adelaide were very good in the first half last week.

I think the Dogs can get up at home. Travis Schiller plays his 100th and I think can easily be a 200 gamer.

Centrals by 3 goals.

Adelaide easily 14.6 to 8.7 . Looked a bit like Centrals trying some rough stuff to unsettle them but didn't work.

Do you mean when Luke Habel took on Jenkins in retaliation for being punched in the chest after he got rid of the ball?

Jeez my first post and It took me so long to log in I can't remember what it was I was going to say. Probably something bad about the crows in the sanfl. And my side (Centrals) is playing the pwer reserves next week. What a waste of two weeks in the season. Can we please get the afl out of the sanfl?

One small incident,hardly any rough stuff from us.
We don't play like that anymore,we play too nice.
Our game style and the way our side is selected is very ordinary.
We are a very boring side to watch and in perfect conditions struggle to kick 10 goals a game.

A nice day weather wise but other than that No Comment.

Good comment.

Whoever designed that Centrals Novita charity guernsey needs their arse kicked. The numbers were unreadable and with our white shorts and all the white on the front of the guernsey it made it difficult to tell the teams apart.
Unfortunately just another example of getting the small things wrong again.

There is an entire whinge thread for that. No need to invest another game thread with it as They are having enough issues with interest as it is.
