This match will be played at Norwood Oval on Saturday at 11:15am. It will be played before the Under 19 Qualifying Final between Sturt and Central District.

North Adelaide finished the minor round in fourth place with a 12-8 record, and fell only a win shy of a double chance. The Roosters rounded out the minor round with four wins in their past five matches, with the only loss coming against minor premiers Glenelg. Central District rounded out the five to finish with an 11-9 win-loss record and a commendable percentage. However, their run to the finals has been considerably poor, with only two wins since round 13 (against South in Round 20 and Norwood in Round 23).

After Centrals won their first clash this season in Round 1 by 21 points at Elizabeth, North seized victory in the next two, winning by 56 points in Round 8 at Prospect, and edged out the Dogs in a low-scoring and gritty seven-point win in Round 19 at Prospect.

Other way around Scott. Reserves at 11:15, U19s at 2pm (same starting times as minor round). See http://www.sanfl.com.au/news/sanfl_news/87/

Thanks for the correction. The SANFL site originally had both games starting at 11:15am, so I just assumed they meant to have the seconds playing the later game.

It will be interesting to see how many players from Port Magpies, Norwood, South and West the Power want playing for Central Reserves this weekend. If I am right in my thinking, as the lowest placed Reserves team playing Central will have Power players from those clubs available for them this week.

Oops, I would think that those from South would play in South's reserves. However, those from the other clubs will be eligible if they did not play for the Power this weekend I believe. Am I right?

brad symes, he would be able to play just like ebert did a few years back wouldn't he ?

Yes. Centrals reserves team could be very strong this week with Goodrem due back from injury as well.
