2nd Semi Final Central v Norwood Post Game Reviews

[CENTURION]

no.......not today.

What was with the bloody sniffer dog today????

maybe he was trained to sniff out all those flares that somehow despite being banned from the venue still manage to make their way into the stadium year after year

no flares today.

The dog did his job then.

Credit to the Legs for not giving in but you might as well start engraving the TSH right now.

If this was facebook, I'd like that.

Just got back from the post game celebrations.

Centrals won it in the clearances and owe the win to our fabulous ruckmen Buckets McKenzie and Pumpa Sutherland - their dominance was very telling particularly in the first and final quarters when the game was there to be won.

I could not understand why Norwood kept kicking sideways, even in the last quarter when only attack would avoid the loss! It reminded me of the AFL.

Also Centrals pressure and tackling was irresistable resulting in many Norwood clangers.

However Norwood will learn from their mistakes today and if they make the GF I'm sure they'll improve.

The SIBENALER deliberate hand out of bounds in the NW forward line was blatant
The umpires missed what should have been a free kick to the legs
There were a couple paid in against the dogs in the Hamra Oval game that were the same if not slightly worse

they very rarely pay deliberate in the sanfl, infact i've seen more deliberately rushed points paid this year than deliberately out of bounds frees paid

Met Constance Perm today top bloke wish Norwood all the best next week.

Yep, had many pints with the bloke over the years, me most likely on VB, and him on some suave imported stuff, and he is certainly one of the better opposition supporters you will meet

after reading the first few pages of this thread, ''whinging poms'' is obviously a bit of an ironic statement.

I must say something about the Norwood fans today. They clearly outnumbered and were more vocal than the doggies fans, and gave their team great support.

However I was hugely dissappointed by the small group of Norwood supporters undercover on the outer chanting homophobic and derogatory chants throughout the game. Open your eyes there are kids all around is this what you want them to hear? Also the angry Norwood fans after the game swearing and yelling abuse you are a discrace to yourselves, your team and your community.

It's been a while Sammy, you're not still swilling that stuff are ya?? Regardless of who your opponent is, will try and catch you for a beer at the Granny lads, we can talk about how shite Melbourne Victory are .

That depends Sam. I think I remember reading somewhere that Bowesy is of English stock. If he is the guy you are referring to that is.
P.S. My apologies to Bowes if that statement is incorrect.

Timing our run to perfection mate I'll most likely be out at the prelim next week to watch our ressies, so I'll make the effort to find you and buy you a pint.

The comments and replies that referred to the League as a whole have now been moved to a new thread so you can discuss it to your hearts content. This thread is for discussion of a specific game...please try to keep on topic.

Lol. This thread just lost 1/3 of it's posts.

Magnificent game, 11 second semi finals wins is just a breathtaking achievement.

Sadly was ill today, so couldn't get to the game. Dragged myself to the lounge to watch the game but missed the first quarter.

Dogs just looked too tough and too disciplined for the legs for most of what I saw. Buckets was all over the ruck duel and Sutherland has been a great pickup. Was pleased to see Havelberg play well, and in 10 minutes he tore McGuinness apart. I personally think McGuinness isn't the match up for Havelberg.

For Norwood to win a rematch I think they need to get some output from rucks and key forwards. Their big men were destroyed on the whole. Once the dogs got a break, they just did what they had to do. And even though the final margin wasn't even the 1/4 time score I felt like the dogs could have put more on the board if they needed to.
