Well done North. Great to see some attacking footy and 21 goals kicked for a change.

Problems at the Parade.

Brady Dawe is a big out. He always plays well against North.

As well as Alex Barns has been doing especially around the ground, North do need James Craig back to compete with the big bodied ruckmen like Baulderstone. Having said that Barns did do well against Osborn


Yes, on today's display I have overrated Norwood. Baulderstone did dominate the centre square but Barns in particular and Harvey led him a merry dance around the ground. I am not trying to be smart, but North looked decidedly fitter than Norwood and certainly beat them for pace.

To be honest after half time I thought the scoreboard flattered Norwood. Take away Panos and Grigg who were both outstanding and most of the rest were very ordinary.

North's recruits have been outstanding. Robbie Young obviously had a day out, Allmond was North's second best and Tropeano was very good.

I now wonder what happened first game at Elizabeth. North were insipid that day and only had one player, Tanner Smith. He too has been a revelation. I really enjoyed his battle with Surman today. Surman didn't have a huge influence but he will win games for Norwood.

I only watched bits and pieces but what I saw was a very impressive North side. Norwood did not look that bad. North will be around the mark this year on that form.

Nw looked slow and lethergic. That stuff doesnt cut it on a fine day like yesterday. Will be steering clear of them (middle of winter at the parade i might be persuaded)

Im going to have to take Norf seriously from now on. :shock:
