NORTH ADELAIDE V CENTRAL DISTRICTS ROUND 4 -2019

NA V CD
Prospect Oval
Friday 19/4/2019
Please note an early start 1:10pm

NA have a home win over WA so far this season
CD have a home win over WA so far this season
At Prospect, Im expecting a NA win
A NA win will erase the 4 point penalty imposed on the club
NA are 5 points behind the currently  5th placed GL , so a win is imperative
The best bet of the day would be the magnificent Prospect Oval BBQ

Could be up to six changes for the Roosters.

A third of the team potentially out, due to injury or suspension.

Quality players possible out for North, Scrappy.

Hender, Ramsey, Clisby, Tropiano, Castree, Schwarz.

Some quality in those names.

Dogs a real chance.

North to win.

So if all those are out and you think North will win then you are saying we would have no chance if they all played

Those NA outs make a BIG difference
CD now a BIG chance

NORTH
North Adelaide has made five changes for its Good Friday match against Central.
The Roosters’ attacking power has taken a hit with Alex Barns (concussion), Lewis Hender (suspension) and Jake Neade (knee) all unavailable for selection.
Neade is undergoing scans on his knee but is expected to miss around 2-4 weeks after experiencing restriction in his knee.
Former captain Mitch Clisby injured his hamstring against Port in Round 3 while Frazer Driscoll has been sent back to the Reserves.
Premiership defenders Tanner Smith and Mackenzie Slee will make a welcome return while Ben Jarman and Jared Deep will add some ball-winning ability through half-forward and the midfield.
Goalsneak Strato Agorastos (23, 175cm and 73kg) has been rewarded for his consistent form in the Reserves, with the Payneham Norwood Union junior booting five goals in last year’s Reserves Grand Final.

We will still have to play very well to win doesnt matter how many North have out they are always tough to beat at Prospect.

Good game to watch and a good win at Prospect.Liked the fact that we didnt chip the ball around backwards & sideways.We look a lot better side when we move the ball forward and only go sideways to change direction.Menzel was outstanding.Hopefully we will continue play the same way.
