Glenelg flawless
Posted Jul 27, 2008 - 18:15 PM
Glenelg responded to last week’s shock loss with a comfortable 45-point win over Norwood at Glenelg Oval on Saturday.
The Tigers’ ability to pressure Norwood into turning over the ball in their defensive 50 gave their midfield plenty of chances to clear the ball with run and quick ball movement through the centre corridor.
Classy Ben Kane was in fine touch, amassing 33 possessions and three goals, while hard working pair Adam Fisher and Tom Holmes were also instrumental in skillfully moving the ball forward.
Strong marking forward Todd Grima was flawless in attack, hauling in a staggering 13 marks and kicking seven goals.
The Redlegs often put themselves under pressure, failing to make quick decisions and allowing their opponents to gain the ascendancy.
Glenelg remain atop the SANFL ladder after the 19.7 (121) to 11.10 (76) victory.
