[Douglas Mawson]

Nwd 8: 11
Dogs 4.7

Centrals to miss the finals for first time since 1999. The end of the era.

[JK]

Crowd 1900 and a bit (can't remember exact figure)

[Jim05]

Bauldy was outstanding, 63 hitouts and gave ours guys first use of the ball so often tonight

[FRED]

We were ordinary but dont tell me umpires cant influence a game.

[Groucho]

Can we get any worse!

Thank you SANFL for programming a night game at Norwood Oval on a Friday Night in June. Einsteins!
Thanks for the wrecked club golf umbrella and the possibly ruined club jacket after getting drenched.
Usual enjoyable trip to Norwood................................................NOT!

Yeah they kept you in it

Best ruckman in the league by a long long way at the moment.

That seems a little optimistic !

Had a good hand in the game against Sturt also.

[leggies]

Yeah and the Norwood eagles game

[philcas]

So we got a good run from the umpires twice this year. well thats probably 2 out of 18 we will get this year &our average for every year for the last 40 years since I have been going.

Did the umpires influence the Grand Finals the Doggies won or it is that the umpires only influence the games that the Doggies lose?

[RB]

So how many fans spent the night in the nick?

Tell me something i already did not know.

I will stick to my statement from the begining of the the year if Central win 4 to 6 games it will be a very good year !

I am a realist this is not the same team as say three years ago.

The key word is have a guess.

REBUILDING !

REBUILDINGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !

Yep that's season over for the dogs, but I guess any side that makes 12 straight Grand Finals and 14 straight finals series is likely to eventually be in a position where they need to rebuild, and that's where Centrals are now, while still being competitive.

Norwood now looming very large. Anyone who thought the premiership race was over has another think coming. I think any of Port, Sturt and Norwood can win it.

Well done to those who went along. I too wonder at the sense of programing Friday night games in June/July.

Good question. Can't really answer though - been too many in the last 14 years to distinguish one from the other

And it is also hard to distinguish between George Bush snr and George Bush jnr or Gulf War 1 and Gulf War 2
