West get a big chance to make it two in a row against Centrals.

West outworked Norwood last week and that form is good. Very good. Centrals lost a close one at home and will look to rebound at what has been a happy hunting ground over the last few years.

Connor McLean will miss and doubts remain over the fitness of Templeton. West perhaps to be unchanged.

An even match up on paper. West by 2 goals.

We will also be without Montgomerie and Llewellyn, making us an even smaller side. If you are 6 foot 2 or above and can play football, we have an urgent need for you

We ain’t much bigger

Wont have to very big to be bigger than us .We will have at least 3 changes all through injury .

West up by 19 points heading towards time on of the last.

Centrals tally of consecutive behinds now up to 11, meanwhile Haysman gets his second goal for the home side.

Game over.

West 13.7 (85) d Centrals 8.13 (61)

West jump into the five, 'Dogs on the bottom, both on percentage (and until tomorrow at least.)

Bitterly disappointing to lose how can we expect to win a game not kicking a goal after half time 11 pts simply not good enough.We dominated the 3rd qtr and shouldve led by 5 goals instead we kept them in it and got we deserved.West deserved their win .Thank goodness Justin Hoskin plays for us he must get frustrated basically carrying us nearly every week .Simply the best player we have.

Wonder how Jeff Andrews is currently feeling...

329 points for, 418 against in five games of footy to date for Centrals in 2021. Three halves have yielded 1.20 (26) to 18.22 (130) between them.

Glad he isn't winless after the first five rounds for two years running, perhaps?

Maybe "reasonably expect"?

Thankfully for Norwood, their opponents did little better in that period this week.

Had enough of the footy to have put the game away early but a combination of poor execution and the usual clangers resulting in costly turnovers kept West in it. Then when the game was there for the taking for both sides Keough and Beech had too much quality for our defence whereas Ryan for West completely blanketed Grace...Well done West - stuck at it all day and worked harder when it it counted.

Can’t remember the last time we won two in a row
