You should his list of cricket clubs in that same period!!! (I can think of Penfield, Eastern Park, Smithfield, Eastern Park, Penfield, Willaston) obviously didn't play anywhere when at the GC.

I agree with everything you said. No one including Centrals is doubting the huge amount of football talent he has. For a player to leave the club twice (not including the AFL draft which no one would question him for) there was simply no way the club could take him back a third time. At some point you have to make a stand.

The bloke is a freak of a footballer and will no doubt probably hurt us on field again.

If Norwood can go on and win the premiership this year or get 3-4 years out him playing for them I'm sure they would consider it a success. If they can get 3-4 years out of them they deserve the talents he will produces as know club has managed to get that out of him.

It may be a bit difficult for him to play for them when he moves into his new residence on Grand Junction Road.

Why not? What's one more club amongst friends. I think he holds the record from Eugene Warrior now. :)

Absolutely no chance he will get locked up

It's almost impossible to get locked up these day nevermind being a first time offender

Worse case is he will be playing football with an ankle bracelet on.
