| - | NORWOOD is back in town.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The Redlegs proved they had completely recovered from their disastrous start to the season - opening with four successive losses - to claim their third consecutive win with an emphatic 67-point triumph over Glenelg at Coopers Stadium last night.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The magnitude of Norwood's recovery is reflected in the fact the triumph was an incredible 143-point turnaround in just six weeks after losing its opening-round clash at Glenelg by 76 points.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Taylor Walker's name has been a hot topic and he wasted little time giving the Crows selectors a reminder of his talents when he took a solid mark and nailed the opening goal from outside the 50 just two minutes into the contest.

| |
| - | A minute later the Redlegs had two majors on the scoreboard when Matthew Davis marked a Walker pass and kicked truly.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Norwood's revival after a poor start to the season has been built on confident, quick ball movement as well as committed defensive pressure and those facets were again showcased last night.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Glenelg went into the battle with a class-laden outfit and it threw plenty at the Redlegs early in an absorbing encounter.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Byron Murphy was effective for the visitors, while Chris Kane, Ty Allen and Josh Carr were busy on the ball.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | While the Redlegs backed themselves with run and slick movement, the Tigers produced the methodical style of play typical under the tutelage of coach Mark Mickan.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Just four minutes into the second quarter Redlegs small forward Josh Donohue immediately made amends for a missed set shot when he goaled to give the home side a 12-point lead.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Both teams were committed to the task but it was the pressure from Norwood, a trademark in recent weeks, which gave the home side the ascendancy.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | The tackling of the likes of Tim Weatherald and Brett Zorzi was relentless and created opportunities for team-mates as the Redlegs continued to surge.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | In-form defender Nick Duigan was inspiring with his charging out of the backlines to spark raid after raid.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | When Toby Schulz goaled late in the second term the Redlegs, playing with more intent, had ballooned the lead to 25 points.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | Glenelg sent Sam Rudolph, who had been standing Walker, forward but the Redlegs' lead grew to 33 points in the third term before Ruory Kirkby kicked a goal for the Tigers after nine minutes of the second half - their first for more than 30 minutes.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | But goals to Davis and skipper James Gallagher ensured the Redlegs had the momentum as they established a 40-point buffer.
| |
| - |
| |
| - | With the rain sweeping in conditions became slippery and it was the home side, with Simon Phillips brilliant in attack, which handled it best.
