THE CLUB SONG
We're a winning team at Centrals
We're the mighty fighting 'dogs
We love our Club and we play to win
Riding the bumps with a grin at Centrals
Come what may you'll find us striving
Teamwork is the thing that talks
One for all and all for one
Is the way we play at Centrals
We are the mighty fighting 'Dogs!

The Central District Football Club, part of the South Australian National Football League, is South Australia's largest community football club. The Bulldogs proudly represent Adelaide's northern community including Salisbury, Elizabeth, Gawler and the Barossa Valley - 250,000+ residents. Central's home base at Playford Alive Oval is a stones throw from the industrial heartland surrounding Holdens (Central's major sponsor since 1989) and the Edinburgh Defence precinct. 'Ceeeentrals' (since the early 1970's) provide an atmosphere unrivalled elsewhere.

FROM THE COACH
On the eve of the 2011 Grand Final some scribes described it as boring that we reached our 12th consecutive SANFL Grand Final. I can tell you one thing we’re not at Centrals – and that’s boring! We have worked bloody hard to get to where we are as a Club, and to be successful as we have been in the past decade. When we reached the top we’ve had to work even harder to stay there. All of our success has all come off the back of sheer hard work by many people involved at the Club.
No matter whether people think it’s boring or not I can tell you we will be trying our guts out to win this year’s Flag - and everything other SANFL flag on offer thereafter. We’re not interested in what others think of us, just in striving to be the best we can be and delivering success to our Community.
I have no doubt that we have the most passionate and vocal supporter base in the League. I can assure you this support lifts the players when they are out there. It is great to hear our supporters in the big games. I’d love to hear this level of support in all games in 2012 as we leave no stone unturned in our quest to be #1 again!
2012 promises to be a year of discovery. After a period of sustained success we now carry the stench of failure in 2011. The level of fight in the pit of our stomach will be on show to all who judge us in 2012. I have no interest in talk – only in actions!
- Roy Laird, CDFC Coach
