SA Footy

That heavy rain/hail hurt Glenelg, their tall forwards were very dangerous up until then (going to stretch a lot of teams defences). Both teams went hard at the footy all night, was an old school struggle in the wet. Umpiring was ridiculously inconsistent, bloody frustrating to watch. Norwood had a little more polish in the end, but you couldn't question both teams endeavour all game. Happy to get the win and hopefully some confidence back into the group.

So cold tonight, almost had an innie.

^ saved me typing it myself.

And three boos to the GFC bar for running out of stout BEFORE the game had even started...

Margin was a fair reflection of the match and Norwood won it in the 1st 15 mins.

Have been home for half an hour and I still can't feel my nuts.

Missus hasn't gone to bed yet?

numbnuts

a bit of Solo Play (tm) ought to get them warm again...

Awes you poor things
Was it really, really cold. What like as low as 15 degrees. Ya babies

Surely another round of Latte's would have warmed you boys up a bit more!

Birdie numb-numb

Half way through the 3rd quarter and the Bays were playing better footy. I was looking forward to going out to the 3/4 time huddle to give some encouragement. Then the hail and heavy rain came.

Aaahhh, what a joy it is to be a fair weathered supporter and stay dry in the stands.

1,898 - poor turn out regardless of weather.

If there were no AFL reserves teams Tex would've played last night, crowd would have been over 7000.

I blame Chapman and the Crows for the poor crowd.

Poor turn out, but about what I expected. Coldest May day in 33 years after all and has come on very suddenly, not at all surprised people stayed home. Unfortunately a prior commitment prevented me from making it last night. Hopefully we can bounce back next week, but given our recent record at Woodville I'm not confident.

Many people would of been put off by the weather. Im still thawing out after being pelted with hail. Should thaw out just in time for the game at Penguin Park Saturday night

If the forecast for next Saturday stays as is fair chance the penguins won't appear

With all due respect is there any chance they could get a new ground announcer at the bay? That bloke is awful.

He is a new ground announcer.

We can't organise enough stout for the night , how the hell can we get something so vital as a ground announcer spot on ?

Tiges will improve as the year goes on and be very competitive.

i am just happy that they are being competitive after the first few games was starting to really worry
