2013 SANFL GRAND FINAL Norwood v Nth Adelaide

[locky801]

Bad luck North , glad you made it to make it a high quality , high scoring and entertaining game

Another idiot you weren't good enough to get there and at least the two sides today probably put 20k more people in than your club would have done

Rod rooster,

Lol at the 'we saved the GF' thread on the Roost!!!!

Ah yes, the one with a total of 3 posts in it with two of those being from the person who started the thread and the other post from an account bagging the grog squad for being "fat drunken North supporters". Yep, you sure have a solid argument there

Why are you reading the Roost anyway? Is there nothing better you could be doing with your time?

[whufc]

Even was some West supporters at the game today wanting North to win, at least it will be a spectacle with some atmosphere.

Second post of the thread

Mmmmmmmmmmm

Atmosphere maybe spectacle not a chance

Love North supporters, can dish it but cannot take. Don't know how many times I heard how North was "saving the grand final"
Kicked almost the same score as us last year yet that's ok.

We were not good enough to make it this year you were not last year but that didn't stop the criticism from you, North supporters and other team supporters who didn't make the grand final.

Suck it up Locky, we had to last year

Too bad Centrals couldn't get within ten goals of North then cos they would have done a better job i suppose. Once again, why are you spending your time on the Roost? Perhaps get a hobby or something to do with your time that is not so pathetically sad.

Unfortunately this may be the end of our good run, can see at least a dozen of today's side not being at the club next year

Dont think your club will be an orphan there Jim, believe North may lose a few but be surprised if you lose a dozen

From todays side
Warren - retired
Zorzi - retired
McGuinness - back to Victoria
Grigg - Crows
Stevenson - Port
Fantasia - Draft
Aish - Draft
Dumont - Draft
Thomas - Draft
Possible draftees, Baulderstone, Suckling, Davis, Jeffries, Fuller, Kirwan
Other squad members
Newton - return to Victoria
Renouf - Port

Not sure about that, it was the last game at AAMI and that was talked up all week on tv and in the paper and it was only 7000 more than last years GF!

Yep but I don't think u will find any Centrals saying we would have 'saved the GF' in a serious way

The roost is brilliant if u want a quality laugh, the last 6 weeks proved that.

You should sell that stuff use would make millions.

[RB]

Any details regarding Norwoods after match presentations?

Back to the Parade and party until Tuesday

What, back at your clubrooms?

[whufc]

Anyway sad day for the SANFL

Crowd was poor imho all things considering

2 really poor GF's in a row after 2 of the best all time GF's

And now we have become a reserves comp

RIP SANFL 6/10/13

[RB]

Once again, a complete waste of $$. Actually expected a more interesting match. Anyway, congrats to Norwood on going back-to-back for the first time since the twenties.

Whatever floats your boat i guess. If that's really the best thing you can do with your time though it's a bit of a worry.

Well done Legs best team all year.

U are wrong UDOGS01 the record is 9 flags won by the mighty Central District Golden Dynasty after playing in 12 consecutive Grand Finals.

Party hard u Legs enjoy.

Which bit did I get wrong Apachebulldog......that's what I said 9 flags in 11 years!!

[Jim05]

Well Zorzi has announced his retirement and Warren said he will if Bassett goes.
The AFL guys are certainties obviously.
The 3 kids will get drafted, Aish at 3, Dumont at 12-15.
Think a couple of others I mentioned as draftees will get drafted, perhaps not all.
Gut feeling about Newton and McGuinness

[gadj1976]

We need a rule change to stop 36 players at one end of the ground.
For North to be only able to kick 4 goals on a fine, sunny day is simply wrong and bad for football.
Yes my team is guilty of this crap football and it has to end

Yep hence my lack of interest for SANFL football and football in general.

I said to a mate of mine sitting here watching it, when teams get into DEEP trouble, they go back to what's natural, run and carry the footy, kick long and try and create opportunities. The problem with this is, they're not playing their normal/team game and guys are caught out of position. I go back to Blighty's theory of kicking a winning score. And there's only one way to do it, attack! Teach blokes to keep their structure so that if you do get a run and carry opportunity you do have someone to kick to.

Obviously there are reasons as to when and where to play defensive footy, but to have 300-400 possessions each and have a 100 point game on a fine sunny day is pretty ordinary. Over-coaching I call it.

Hey well done to Bass and the Norwood mob, way too good, but I don't like the way the SANFL has gone recently. I hope that trend does not continue but I fear its too late.

Well done to North for making it though, they did a great job after falling at most of the last hurdles to get into the finals.

That is a fair lot that could be missing next year, you can also include the coach.

Any idea who Bassett's replacement might be, would Robbie Neil be in with a chance?

Plenty of decent kids coming through and a couple of delisted players to come back


Any chance Macca coming in to coach?
