				North retrieve a 27 point deficet in the 2007 prelim.
I am predicting that to be the 3rd biggest comeback in SANFL prelim history.
Am I close?

				I can only go by the margins at each break:
West were 30 points behind Port at the 1st break in the 1947 Prelim, but won by 38.
Norwood were 25 points behind West at half time of the 1941 Prelim, but won by 22.
Port were 22 points behind North at half time of the 1958 Prelim, but won by 27.
(These are the two greater than the 20 point half time gap this year)
Port were 21 points behind Central at three quarter time of the 1972 Prelim, but won by 6.

Cheers
