Hmm - no suprise if we lost this one either! I will be very interested in seeing what changes are made? Gill should be an in, Schubert needs to come back and give the defence some height and strength otherwise move Damon White to CHB and put Macca to FB (hopefully he will record a kick and mark this week :oops: ). Will Wakelin come up after one ressies run but then what do we do with Stewart???

P.S. Time for Wade Thompson to come up - pace to burn and has a good size about him.

:? Loose this game and we are in trouble surely, considering at the start of the year we were favourites for the flag by most of the media ?

I will be very interested to see who comes in to the Norwood side this week.

We may just have something different in store. :shock:

And another win would be nice. :wink:

The challenge for North may in fact be the weather forecast (seriously). Hail is forecast for Friday and wet conditions may be a real evener for the two sides.

Challenge for North?
We played Norwood 3 times last year, two times in the wet.

In the wet we won by 25 pts and 57 pts, in the dry we only won by 15pts. :shock:

North have bigger bodies so I cant see the wet affecting the result (maybe the margin), hope im wrong though

It'll be the first time then, we've been the smaller team physically against every side we've played so far this year.

Slightly off topic but not worth a separate thread - how much %age is separating the Eagles and North atm? I see they both have a rounded figure of 50% but what are the decimal places?

Its amazing that 3 premiership pts separates 3rd and 7th, with Port (in 8th) only a further point behind.

Norwood can win this.

North are a shambles at the moment and their coach has other things on his mind (tribunal).

Norwood by 3 goals

We have a good record of bouncing back after defeats and expect this to happen this week, North by 25-35 points.

The word shambles used in 2 topics by you to describe North. I would hardly think Jars is worried too much about the SANFL tribunal - none of the players do so why would a coach.

If we are a shambles what word would you use to describe a lesser team e.g. West.

However if we lose this week then the wheels will be held on by one lock nut only and more grumblings off field from supporters and players may be louder!
