Review SF: Magpies v Bulldogs SUN 12:10pm | Adelaide Oval

[StuMan]

I'm glad Centrals is getting smashed.
So much for the "fairy tale" continuing due to Westies having a few players out.
Muppets.

Grey Ah-chee and Krakuer would of played well enough anywhere , Hoon and a few others would be playing Sanfl ressies , not unwarented either , no I say the trade of isn't worth it , KT and co knew it , that's why it wasn't the clubs first option , as we all know its what was forced on us.

What a load of s**t. Centrals had him in their league side as an 18 year old.

I am sceptical as to whether he makes an AFL footballer, but he's unquestionably SANFL standard.

How the hell did we lose to Centrals?

Bloods absolutely smashing 'em.

Dogs might eventually kick a goal...

It is terribly disappointing. Perhaps mindset and the top ups were just too inexperienced and too much responsibility weighed upon Mitchell and Moore in the midfield.

Always good to see Ceeentral get done - certainly looks like they'll lose now 10 minutes into the last quarter and 43 points down - Gawler line train should be interesting after this game with those ferals no doubt causing trouble - crime rate should also be up tonight around the "Ponderosa" area - woeful crowd of a bit over 7,000 at AO today for the Prelim Final and perfect weather too.

I was hoping it would be 7000 for the GF. I'm disappointed it was this high for the prelim

The SANFL will, no doubt, ignore calls for neutral suburban finals, except for the granny.

Today's crowd was roughly thereabouts with Prelim crowds going back a decade. 2008 was the outlier with 13,846 for Glenelg v Sturt. Bays bandwagon must've been out in force that year.

Could be looking at a sub-20,000 crowd this week...

Taking into account that there were two games in each of the preceding two weeks those crowds were pretty disappointing too. 8031 for the qualifying/elimination and 9247 for the 1st and 2nd semi-finals. The royal show and the travelling cows fans for R23 and week 1 of the finals may have had some effect. As they played on a Friday in week 2 of the finals everyone should have been back for a Sunday game.

Disappointing result but I'm happy with the improvement by the Dogs.

Hopefully the Bloods go on & win the GF (in front of a tiny crowd), can't stand the plastic Hybrids!!!
