South win, eliminate North

Marvellous Me, I gave credit to South for playing a great game. This is the reason that North did not choke.

#196437 here is a North supporter right here. Where were you 6 weeks ago when North beat the Panthers by 13 on Panther's home ground? All of a sudden a loss by 2 points on the buzzer constitute a choke. There is always an expectation on the reigning champs to do well the next season. Panthers got lucky last night, not just the final shot on the buzzer but they played above their normal form. North Adelaide have been a superior team to the Panthers all season and a loss to them was not expected. I will say however that North could have done a bit more to keep a more comfortable gap between them so it didn't come down to the final shot. They could have also made allowances for teams playing in an unusual manner when the pressure of finals is on. I don't doubt that the Panthers after the way they played last night can take out the championship but luck doesn't usually come 3 times in a row.

Can't believe it.

Had my money on North, but I am now wondering what the difference is between Port Power or North Adelaide Rockets?

nodusty08, you're a bit slow with that one. I expected it to be atleast the 3rd post on this subject.

Half the stadium was filled with vocal South supporters, very few loud North supporters there... As a result, a lot of noise was made in North's offensive end for the second half, including during FT's etc.

The game was also very physical, and a lot wasn't getting called, only to be followed up with a very cheap/soft call.
