Ten goals in a quarter and still lost

[Pseudo]

In homage to Sturt's one good quarter this week: How many times has a team dobbed 10 in a single quarter yet lost the match? Couldn't be too often.

Only other time I can remember is early nineties, 92 or 93, Glenelg v Norwood at Glenelg. Norwood kicked 10 goals to the Bays' 5 in the first term but got overrun by the end of the game.

I'm sure Spell Check will have the answer but I would think it's happened more times that you would initially think.

Two that come readily to mind for me are:
South Adelaide 10-4 v Norwood 1-1, round 9 1972, Adelaide Oval.
Final score: Norwood 18--15, d. South Adelaide 18-11

North Adelaide 11-2 v Norwood 7-1, round 5 1975, Norwood Oval
Final score: Norwood 26-22, d. North Adelaide 24-12.

The amazing thing about the 1975 match is that North also kicked 9 goals in the final quarter, so they kicked 20 goals in 2 quarters and STILL lost.

[Leaping Lindner]

North kicked 10 goals in (IIRC) the second quarter of the "return to Woodville Oval" match in 1992 against The Eagles. Still ended up getting belted.

This is 60+ plus in a quarter and lost the match. LL that match you mentioned was in 1994.

No team has ever kicked 60 points in a quarter twice in a match and lost. That Norwood/North game, North kicked 9.5 (59) in the last.

No team has kicked exactly 60 points in one quarter in a match and lost it.

Spelly, have you ever thought of publishing your gold mine of stats so that
us mere mortals could indulge ourselves?

[spell_check]

Maybe one day. Ecky and I are still correcting scores - only a handful (20 or so are slightly different)

[Leaping Lindner]

This is 60+ plus in a quarter and lost the match. LL that match you mentioned was in 1994..

Ah wrong year - cheers Spelly. Mind you Woodville Oval vs W-WT just means shellacking for me. I moved to Victoria in 1995 and have only seen North play there against W-WT in 1992,93 and 1994

No team has ever kicked 60 points in a quarter and lost the match. That Norwood/North game, North kicked 9.5 (59) in the last.

Being pedantic - you mean last quarter.

Sorry, that was supposed to be "No team has ever kicked 60 points in a quarter twice in a match and lost the game." North in that match got the closest.

[spell_check]

Actually what I had first was correct, but so was the statement I changed it to.

[MightyEagles]

How about that Port v West game at AAMI over 10 years ago. I think West were 11 goals down a couple minutes into the 2nd and still won.

[spell_check]

Port had 9.1 at quarter time in that match to Wests' 0.1.

[XXXXRooster]

Gotta love those run and gun 70's and 80's!!!!

and just for mentioning that West and Port game again.......

SIMISTER!!!!!!!!

SIMISTER!!!!!!!!

LOL- that was some of the funniest commentary I have heard. Still have some highlights of that on video.. Mark Aiston screaming in the background and Rocky Roberts with "What a SENSATIONAL catch"


Pseudo I was at that Norwood v Bays match- An absolute belter. Remember Aish being caught holdng the ball in between the grandstand and Snouts Hill. It was one of the loudest "BALLLL"cheers I have ever heard
