NORWOOD
Norwood coach Jarrod Cotton will be considering an unchanged line-up for the match against Central on Friday night.
With the Redlegs coming off an impressive 59-point win against Sturt at Unley, Cotton has added two players to the squad which got the job done in Round 16.
Emerging forward Cameron Taheny returns from college duty with Rostrevor while 19-year-old Sam Buckham, from Wudinna, has again made the extended interchange bench to potentially make his League debut.

Its been mentioned that Norwood were not happy with the 5 day turnaround compared to our 14 days.They would only need a 2 day turnaround to beat us.This will be very ugly minimum 70 pt loss at best.

Norwood too strong. Friday night at Coopers is a bit of a fortress for the Legs and I can't see Centrals being strong enough to cause an upset. Legs by 5 goals.

Lot closer than people think with Norwood running out of legs in the last quarter.

Norwood by 2 goals.

Both of you are being way to conservative if Norwood are half serious they will win by at least 9 goals.Even if you run out of legs it wont matter you will be that far in front that you can cruise home.

I WAS VERY VERY WRONG AND HAPPY TO BE SO what a great win

Yep you have a guy that can coach.

Big win by Centrals, much too good on the night. Suddenly Norwood's final spot is in doubt, although I think they will beat Westies. But it cost them a spot at the double chance, they will have to work their way through from the elimination final now
