Preliminary Final - Centrals v West

[RustyCage]

Time to move the first three weeks of the finals to suburban grounds

This has been nothing more than a training drill. Centrals have been insipid. Hopefully show some fight In the second half because that was one hell of a limp effort.

A few Bloods fans must be daring to dream about breaking the 32 year drought, good luck to them.

Or preferably get rid of the AFL sides so crowds will pick up again.

Crowds to the first few weeks of the finals were very poor long before then

Depends who plays. But I think the finals should be played at suburban grounds. 2 seperate days maybe .

How was that not a mark to Porps?

Some baffling decisions in this game

Over now, on to next week

Put the cue in the rack and save it for next week

West will need to clean their skills up and get a few back for next week. The eagles are more physical than centrals too so will need to handle that as they didn't have much today.

Crowd 7,218.

That would look good better at a Richmond.

Completely outclassed and out coached today. TC is not a forward and should never have started the game there. Dallas Hill should have come in for Edmead. West are great in the air and their bigger bodies in the middle really showed us up.

Milera is all class. Hopefully he gets drafted to an interstate club.

All in all we have over achieved this season so I can't be disappointed.

Well done to the Central supporters who kept on singing all day. It was also good to see it was the West supporters getting in trouble behind the goals not the Central supporters.

I know that when you're in the Grand Final you don't really care how big the crowd is but both West and Eagles don't have a bandwagon. They will need to hope a lot of neutrals go next week.

Well done Doggies on a good year and good luck to both West and Eagles next week. They have been the best two sides all year.

Fantastic win by West today. Thought the poor goal kicking in the first half was going to bite us on the arse and potentially cost us the game, glad I was wrong. Thought Kane Stevens was BOG and Porplyzia not far behind.

Outstanding faith shown by Mickan in the teenagers: Middleton, Snelling, Haysman, Agostino & Brind (on debut). They all played their part and contributed to the result. Some tough selection decisions to be made again this week with some players potentially coming back.

Congratulations to Centrals on a successful year. I think the last 3 weeks caught up with them. However to beat Norwood and Port in finals, plus south at Noarlunga is no mean feat and could be the foundations for another successful year next year.

Laird seems to be out-coached of recent years from what I hear and read.

Who is potentially in for West as they will need them.

People need to stop whinging about crowds.
My team is in the GF and I couldn't give a stuff how many turn up.
Big crowd days are over. Get over it people.

[Magellan]

Well done Wests. Hope they go one better next week.
