Match report:
In a tough bruising affair, Norwood won the club’s first premiership for 25 years, coached by former North Adelaide champion Bob Hammond.
It was a tough bruising “take no prisoners” affair with John Wynne’s inspirational leadership a significant factor.
Norwood led by 14 points at ¼ time, and a quick 3 goal burst from Glenelg late in the 2nd term saw them lead by 4 points at half time. The game remained in the balance until late in the final term when the Redlegs finally broke through. Jim Michalanney kicked a freakish goal from the impossible pocket at the golf course end to give Norwood a 2 point lead at ¾ time.
Phil Gallagher kicked a superb running goal early in the final term to give Norwood the edge, and a Michael Olsen goal gave Norwood some breathing space. From there it was tough hard slog until the siren sounded to see Norwood home by 12 points.
Neil Button and John Wynne were outstanding for Norwood whilst Rex Voigt and Wayne Phillis were Glenelg’s best.
One highlight of the game was champion forward Fred Phillis booting only 6 behinds for the match.
