Just two wins less than Norwood over the journey, who are touted as the big chance this year, and with an excellent form line coming into the finals. I don't think we are done just yet. 7th would be a shock to us with the sort of form we have now, but not a surprise given our poor start, and yes, every side gets the league position they deserve once the points and percentages are tallied.

Interestingly, if we do fail against North, we will have won and lost to every other team in the league this year. Not a record we'd want, but I wonder if that has happened before?

It couldn't have happened before. There wasn't an Adelaide Crows before

The Bays absolutely deserve to be bottom and have a shitload of work to do to get out of the hole they're in on field.

Those dominant years really hurt didn't they?

Whats really hurt Central this year is the two AFL interlopers FAARKING up the SANFL by reducing the the competition from 23 rounds DOWN to 18 rounds.

Just when Central are starting to gel there is a 5 week window missing.

Well done SANFL TRIPODI AND THE GANG OF SIX !!!!!

Pretty sure we knew the length of the season when it started. [emoji2]

I'm thinking that comment must have been tongue in cheek.

Can only hope.

What is good to see is Roy turning things around when a few had written him off earlier in the year.

The man deserved more respect and good on him for shoving it up a few doubters.

Well said.
Saw a number of posts earlier this year expressing doubt about his ability in tough situations with an underdeveloped team, as if previous results were a fluke.
There's strong evidence to suggest he has built this team into a strong unit and has given the club something to build on for 2015, whatever the result of this weekend.

Agreed.
I thought there were a few disrespectful comments on here earlier in the season.

Well, it wasn't exactly what you said, but a fair call on 7th over the year. Still, a disappointing result in terms of form over the last half of the season.

Onward and upward for the 'Dogs in 2015 while, sadly for the league, the same old few will just have to settle for the usual bumble onwards.
