[stampy]

ps. havent seen a funnier moment at SANFL football in the last 15 years than the Snouts Louts giving Gowans rubbish about being soft etc etc..................................... only for him to kick a goal a minute later 100 meters by himself.

what a crock of shite, yes he was getting heaps but who could honestly say that that antagonising little prickle is soft ffs! be real w huffy

[hot dogs]

i was close by and thoroughly enjoyed that moment as well.

[stampy]

on that though, he was the only player inside centrals forward 50 and it was sticking out like the proverbial what was gunna happen............and i t did think james may be a bit proppy for the next couple of days

What a gutsy win by the side today. To have 2 players in hospital before half time, plus J Gowans on the bench injured and Sibenaler playing injured, and then to play a second half as if no one was injured was just sensational.

Was a great start to the game, as we set up a 3 goal lead, Glenelg's possessions were limited largely to free kicks. The second quarter was a repeat, but our bench resembled a casualty ward. How would we react? Would this get Glenelg back in the game and we dig deep to scrape over the line?

Hell no.

We hit the ground running in the third, slamming home 4 goals in 8 minutes. Every goal the players were pumped, knowing that each goal was a battle. From there even with no bench we were home. But we kept going...and going...and going... and won by 75 points. The support from the fans after the game showed that this wasn't just another Glenelg spanking, it was done on pure guts and determination.

Best way to describe the game - a gutsy massacre

Fair enough but i was getting a beer at the snouts louts bar (great atmosphere on the hill) when he got injuresd and he was copping lots about being soft, toughin up, eat some cement etc etc

What were the bays thinking, he was sitting in the goal square for at least a minute!!!!!

Thanks for many laughs over the last few years bays, greatly appreciated.

I feel like dancing!

That was the single best minor round victory I've witnessed. Pure heart, they've given everything they had today and then did some more. Somehow.

Good to see Sully make it through the reserves game, rested for the full final qtr after dominating at times in the 3rd. Will be a useful addition to the midfield in a couple of weeks with Boyd, Gowans and Dutschke all likely to miss for a while.

Sully 23 possesions 1 goal and at least 5 tackles in 3 quarters of football.

Fantastic win. Only 17 fit men for two and a half quarters. Really was expecting more fight from Glenelg after half time. They should have run us off our feet. Great effort by Centrals. Their tackling today was outstanding.

Seen alot of footy in my time but that would have to be one of the gutsiest (if thats a word) efforts I have witnessed. Not only did the dogs have to overcome adversary, that taught Glenelg a football lesson.

Thank you Roy, all the players, staff and The CDFC for a wonderful day.

Absolute privilege to have witnessed that......magnificent !!!!

All sum it up nicely. Footy as it should be, all for the guernsey.

Very proud of those boys today!

WTF bays, you are sposed to be the main challenger this year, ******* insipid effort, now we have to face them next week coming off that.

At least they will have a few outs from this game so they wont be at full strength but well need more than that.

[mighty_tiger_79]

main challenger

i thought that was left to norwood and the eagles

[The Sleeping Giant]

Norths win over Norwood a few years ago was more gutsy. 2 players not allowed to start the game because of bureaucracy. At least Centrals got some play out of Boyd and DutchKey.

mmmmmmmm 19 men vs 21 (team that were rubbish)

or 17 vs 21 against a team in the top 3 at start of play.

Let the jury decide.

Bays might be in a spoon battle also.

[Dog-boy]

That is why i love this club,they never give up and it was a TOTAL team effort!!!!!
Best minor round win in a long time cant get the smile off my face.

ALL PLAYED WELL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[am Bays]

Totally unacceptable effort. Embarrassing

Full kudos to Centrals though, you just have to appreciate how they go about it.

Centurion we didn't get rid of him, he decided to leave. We actually kept him on our list for a couple of years after he left.
