Hi Footy Fans...

WELL! Round 9 of the SANFL this last weekend saw the first ever draw for the season and a return of good fortune for some teams. So without any further ado... here's this weeks SANFL wrap.

Saturday arvo footy is just what the doc ordered for SA footy nuts, starting off at Woodville Oval where the Magpies fought like mad to keep the Eagles at bay and succeeded, winning by 8 points.

In the ABC Match of the Day, West Adelaide scored a 29 point victory over the Double Blues, Ben Marsh getting 25 tap outs in a near lone effort against three opposition ruckmen.

Over at Elizabeth, the Bulldogs were only down for one quarter when the Tigers kicked 6.2 to the home side's 2.2. After that it was just pure massacre, the Doggies destroying the Tigers to the tune of 86 points.

And finally down at Noarlunga Oval, the Roosters and the Panthers fought out 2003's first ever draw finishing with 109 points a piece!
