Norwood Oval | Saturday 23rd August | 3:40pm

Norwood at home by 27 points

Port by 12 points

Norwood have better points for and against than PA so in theory they should be the better team but depends on how many AFL listed players PA includes on the day. The margin is irrelevant so a win for the home team would be appreciated.

Norwood B Grade also in a do or die match v Sturt.

Sturt reserves % is too great for Nwd reserves to catch up.

Yeah, I love these close percentage final round matches.

34 points the minimum winning margin needed for Norwood to jump Sturt into the Reserves finals. The finer scoreline details mostly academic.

Edit: Oops, forked up. 'Legs Bs just need to win, of course, due to the earlier draw. Thanks for the correction Spargo.

Eh? Unless I’m looking at the wrong ladder, Norwood are only half a game behind Sturt…

Will probably be missing our ruckman with a hamstring injury swinging the result in Ports favour.

Correct, we drew against Westies early in the year.

It’s winner takes all, well Sturt can draw

Agreed, refer to 'our' first seven (?) games for a form guide without one. With J. Callow available after suspension, I suspect 'we' will go with makeshift ruckmen, rather than giving D'Annunzio or Kotzur a chance.

My mistake . I only looked at the wins, I didn't see they had a draw.

Even though the league game starts an hour and half later than usual, the reserves starts at the usual time.
So there's no incentive to get there early to see how the ressies go in their quest for a finals spot.

Port by 5 goals

After the Ressies game, spend an hour and half in the Premiers bar or on Cooper's hill

Don't know why the SANFL persist with delaying SANFL games to fit in with an Interstate Crows game.

Delaying the game will put more people off than get more people there.

2 for the price of 1 ticket this game should get a good crowd there though.

What's stranger is at Unley they're play the league game at the normal time which means the Sturt officials have to scramble between both grounds to get the league side ready, inclusive of having to send have the support staff back to Unley at half time of the 2s.

SANFL should have considered moving the reserves game to Unley

Norwood by 10 goals .. the Power boys will want to be joining in on the fun two days later..

or swap the nwd v pa game to unley and the sturt v adel game to coopers


(p.s. not a serious comment)

Port serious. Ratkins in.
