North vs Norwood at Norwood

[robranosgod]

I was thinking on the weekend about how often I have seen North beat Norwood at Norwood. Can you give me a breakdown of North vs Norwood at Norwood over history and more importantly for me over the past 50 years. I reckon North would be close to 50%, especially over the timeI have been going to the footy.

Funnily enough, Norwood has an excellent record at Prospect. I have never understood either of these historic statistics.

Since 1950 that would be 29 wins and 35 losses for North.

So for the past 50 years it is 25 wins and 28 losses for North. Almopst 50%. Does any other club have as good a record at Norwood over that period?

Also over history is North's record the best of any "away" team at Norwood, or is Port better?

And finally I know that North have easily the best away record at Alberton. Do you know what that one is? It seems that North play better awaythan at home.

I found another match involving North I had down for West in 1901, so that's where the difference is.

Spelly, when were Woodville's four wins at Norwood? Growing up in the 80's I can never recall us winning there. Maybe 66? 79?

1968, 1969, 1971 and 1979.

Another win for North at Alberton, I reckon that I have seen 20 of them. It is remarkable how often North win at Norwood and Alberton, yet conversely have poor records against Port and Norwood at Prospect.

It is remarkable how often North win at Norwood.

It used to be an achievement, but everyone beats us as Norwood Oval these days.
