Fantastic scenes here in Adelaide as Norwood kicks six goals in the first 18 minutes of the second term thanks to a strong breeze at their backs.

The fat lady hasn't even started to clear her throat yet. The Bulldogs are a hard team to beat and their supporters are every bit as strange as Collingwood's.

Two goals to Centrals brings them to within 3 points about 10 minutes into the third quarter.

Draftwatchers might be interested in a mature small defender Paul Puopolo who is having a good day in the back pocket.

Spoke too soon. His opponent puts Centrals in front by 3 points.

Go Redlegs with the gale in Q4!!!!

Centrals by 11 points late in the third. Legs need to hold on for the next few minutes and then come home with a stiff breeze.

its on 5AA if anyone wants to listen online.

There goes the bell.

Central District 9.11.65 v Norwood 7.6.48

There goes the bell.

Central District 9.11.65 v Norwood 7.6.48

Won't be easy from here despite the wind advantage.

Still 14 points down. Can't kick a goal.

Dogs get their first against the wind and lead by 20 points - 12 minutes in.

Redlegs haven't goaled since the middle of the second quarter.

Goal to Norwood - 14 points down at 17 minutes.

Goal to Norwood

8 points

This could be a DRAW!!!

One goal the difference with about 2 minutes left.

Siren ... Devastated. This is worse than yesterday!

Norwood fall short 9.11.65 to 10.11.71. That first goal to Centrals against the wind in the final quarter did us in.

Sigh. There was a time in the early 1980s when 17 points down at the end of the third quarter would've meant we were sure to win. Beloved Norwood.

Bad luck to the Redlegs.

No grand old flag for Norwood.

What a sensational run from Central District - 9 premierships in 11 seasons!!!

It has been meaningless for two decades, truth be told. Centrals were always the Western Bulldogs of today -- unable to seal the deal -- until the league was gutted.
