Comments
At Adelaide Oval it was the Magpies
who dominated from the opening bounce and if it had not been
for poor kicking at goal (13 goals from 35 shots) the margin
would have been much greater. After the match Port's coach
Stephen Williams described the game as Ports best 4 quarter performance
so far this year. Chris McDermott (North's coach) though
was totally disappointed and has stated that he has given up
on making the finals and is now looking towards 1999.
It was a battle for fifth spot
between Centrals and the Eagles at Woodville Oval, but it was
the Doggies who came out fighting. Centrals kicked 6 goals to
2 in the first quarter and led by 27 points at half time.
In the final quarter the Eagles closed to within 16 points but
Centrals steadied and ran out winners by 33 points.
Sturt confirmed its premiership
favouritism with a thumping 85 point win over West at Richmond.
With Sturts Julian Burton kicking 9 goals (7 in the first half),
the Double Blues never looked threatened and in the end ran out
easy winners.
South and Glenelg travelled to
Penola where the first half was fairly even with Glenelg in front
at the main break. In the second half the Panthers stepped
up a gear and ran away from a disapointing Tiger outfit.
South have now won 7 of their past 10 games and is only out of
the five by percentage.
