Going to be a lot of happy people at Menzies cres Sunday night


What's the winning percentage in a GF for teams losing nine games a year????


Lol. Not as good I'm betting.

Norwood should go in favourites but there are so many examples of dead certs losing in grand finals no Norwood fan should be cocky about the game, Fester excepted.

Not sure if people even bet on football in the seventies but Sturt would have been paying about 1.01 and the Redlegs about 4.00 before the 1978 GF so no one's counting any chickens in my house.

Let the fans get ahead of themselves, its fun watching people from both sides saying they have the win in the bag. As long as the players don't think the game is already won, that's the important thing.

I'm a little nervous about this game, North have shown some great form the last three weeks, even though they haven't quite put four quarters together in that time. Norwood fresh and injury/soreness free should be ready to take on everything North's throw at them. I'm tipping a close one on Sunday, Norwood by under 3 gls.

I'd be more confident if Norwood were playing West again.
North worry me a bit.

I'm travelling down for the game and I'm a bit nervous. Any side that can turnaround their form to win 3 finals in a row after 5 consecutive losses needs to be respected.

Having said that we have a solid and stable lineup that should have plenty of incentive and ability to perform given the dominant year and the amount of players who will either retire/get drafted and/or missed out last year.

Hoping for a comfortable margin, but as long as we win that doesn't really matter.

Not sure if I am as nervous as a cat having kittens or as excited as a dog with two tails !!!! Will be at Menzies Cst. to see how The Thring Thing comes up. Will be a great match up with Miles against Baulderstone.
Hoping Miles dominates. Get nervous you Chardy Sippers.

And dont worry about the "Karma Bus". I have hired it for the weekend and it is programed to look out for Mr Bassett. " North were Lucky"

Just as many "Chardy sippers" at Prospect Agile. And besides, we prefer the Coopers variety of drinks ;)
