Mens ABL Final ~ Norwood v North
The two premier teams of the competition all season long and two teams with absolute wealth of talent.
In three previous encounters inches have separated the results. Three classic battles and now a fitting end awaits.
Even the Woollocott Medal was fought out between these two teams as was Coach of the year and 2 representatives from each club with All Star 5 honors gives you a taste of how good this game will be.
North will be coming off their best game of the season after having the reigning Champs number from start to finish last Saturday night.
Norwood on the other hand will be fresh and ready to go, having played only 1 game in the last three weeks of action. A positive or a negative?
Key players for Norwood will be the silky Todd Mathews, big man David Cooper and bench tiro Dan Thompson.
For North it will be Woollocott Medalist Dusty Rychart, scoring machine Eze Burdon or big man Nick Slambour.
But maybe what makes this contest so good is anyone on these rosters can hurt you on a given night. Namews like Webber, Foster, Krause for Norwood and Zorich, Kersten, Rowe for North. It promises to be a hell of a game.
Norwood have the win loss spread over the year 2 to 1 but i think the weeks off will hurt Norwood and if North can play near where they did last week the game will be theirs in a close one. North by 4
