BAYS TURN THE ROOSTERS INTO FEATHER DUSTERS

GLENELG put aside three quarters of patchy football to blast North Adelaide off the park with a nine goal to one final term at Gliderol Stadium today.

Inspired by best-on-ground midfielder Byron Murphy, who left the field just before half time bleeding from the face following an incident with North's Clint Alleway, the Tigers made it nine straight wins over the Roosters with a 47-point triumph.

There was some genuine feeling in the game with almost every player involved in a heated scuffle at the half time siren.

"The players had some feeling, they've got some real feeling for each other, they don't like seeing their other mates get hurt so it's just how you respond to that is what's important," Glenelg coach Mark Mickan said.

"We talked about that at half time. We said the best way to respond to that is on the scoreboard and with our effort and the way we play, just being hard at the footy. And maybe it took until the last quarter for that to really happen but it was a good response."

Mickan described Murphy as "a very tough customer" and he finished with 25 possessions, while skipper Ben Mules was brilliant rebounding from defence and Ty Allen and Matthew Bode were their typical workmanlike selves around the footy.

Sam Shaw also caught the eye in his league debut.North was right in the game and had its chances, but was made to pay for wayward shots on goal and loose tackling.

Djaran Whyman and Leigh Ryswyk were lively, Matt Wright worked hard on the ball, Damon White provided a target, Ben Williams did some good things and Cain Ackland made a good return to league ranks. But North was found wanting in the final term.
