Been 8 years since I’ve been to a trial…..

Can we expect a bbq going for a bite to eat or best to get some food on the way down???

West Adelaide v Central District - Hisense Stadium - 7.05pm
Saturday March 9
Norwood v North Adelaide - The Parade - 9am*

*new time due to weather forecast

I know it was only a trial game but every time we play West they are dull boring snoozefests and tonight was no exception .
We got the win but it was an awful game as it always is against them

Good to get back into footy last night.

Best thing about it, without counting the players a good 500-1000 people there to watch a trial of SANFL footy in 34 degree heat.

Yeah the SANFLs dying

I totally agree with you, it was good to get back to some SANFL footy once again, and it was a good crowd to watch a trial game

Surprised and encouraged by the two games scores.

Much the same at the women's game last week. Modest crowd and good footy. Great feeling at Thebby, with the vast expanse of the oval and the city skyline behind.

SANFL Trial at Coopers Stadium

Norwood 6.5.41

A spectacle for the ages it certainly was not, but neither sides intensity and work rate could be questioned. Thought West looked more potent ariallly up forward although we were missing a couple in Grace and McCormick. Dogs midfield recruits looked good..gone are the days where we look undersized on ball… Nutta junior and Gaspar will add polish around the goals..

Number 6 and the big number 30 really stood out for Westies

Along with Manny Liddy were right up there in the best on grounds.

Final Score from Norwood Oval:

Norwood 3.2, 6.5, 7.6, 8.9 - 57
North 3.0, 4.2, 6.5, 7.9 - 51

Slightly interesting scenario after the West/Centrals trial.

Thommo kept the players on the oval at the end of the game for at least 10 minutes maybe longer for a chat. All players stood around listening along with support staff and a few supporters. We were miles away so couldn't hear what was being said but was interesting thing to do given they could have easily walked into the changeroom for the chat. Maybe it was going to be cooler outside.

I think both teams stayed on the ground at half time as well.. probably cooler out there as you said

We were missing a stack also, looking at the reserves I expected West to get smashed but I was very pleased with the result
