We're in the top 8, let's start the finals.
Yep we're higher placed on the ladder ATM than Brisbane, Carlton, Richmond, the Bulldogs and Geelong ;)

Let's relish that thought, if only for a week :D

To be honest, I was totally surprised that supporters could remember the words to our club song. Pretty damn sure half of them were singing it in Latin:think:

Like Duck I had to work yesterday so I avoided all media until I watched the replay last night- not easy to do!!! Great to see a sustainable, organized, repeatable style of play. Nick Daicos should be the blueprint for Sheez’s season. Tommy Powell and WiPhi really solid performances- great to see. The poor disposers aren’t going to last in this team very long, looking at you Taylor and Turner, just too costly in the modern game. Effort across the board was great, coaching already having a big influence. Larkey benefitting from better structure and Comben, likewise Ziebs who looked much better with Sheez and Logue around him. Think he can stay in the side all season. I’d persist with Stevo for now, it will turn for him. All of a sudden there is pressure on spots which can only make us better. An enjoyable game to watch for once.
 
LOL. Lose to North and bitch about umpiring? Them of all teams. Too funny.

They're just dirty that the umps clearly misread the script. The free they awarded to Shuey for collapsing at the knees and drawing high contact was supposed to be for the winning goal, not to put them within a kick.

In fairness to the umps, it appears that we didn't play our part by breaking the habit of a decade and not allowing them a butter-soft F50 entry (due to a number of comically poor decisions, usually made by senior players) in the dying seconds of the game.

Anyway, f*** the Eagles. Cheating campaigners.
 
Hello my city named team brethren,

Just caught up on the replay and I was excited to see North play a very dashing brand of football.

Also Sheezel looks fantastic so far. Great composure.

I’ve two questions. On the TV the unpures were light blue tops and dark shorts didn’t look great on TV at a distance. Was it less similar in person? Seems a foolish choice.

Also I fast forward through the pre game stuff so probs missed the explanation and I don’t know your club history very well. What was on your jumper under the Mazda logo.

Good luck this season.

That was Dr Allen Aylett, former club captain, club president when we won our first flag and the father of the national comp.

A legend of the game.

Yep, absolutely ridiculous decision by the AFL to have umpires in similar colours to a team.....the mind boggles. Nothin surprises these days unfortunately.

Things I liked:
Sheezel: poise, pin point passing, didn’t run out of puff.
Bergman: Al and Brett know what it takes, Bergs hits targets and stuck that tackle!
Big Charlie: growing in confidence. Thrown in the ruck and I reckon he loved being about the ball and being physical. Loved his goal.
Xerri: looked comfortable as ruck in his brief cameo.
Goater: didn’t look great against Dogs 2 weeks ago, he’s learning but he did the job yesterday and his athleticism showed. Getting him, Bergs, Charlie and others to feel they belong at AFL is key. Once you believe at AFL level you can dominate, but our poor form the last 3 years has affected a number of Roo careers recently.
Logue: Legit KPD. I thought he was the best key back, overshadowed Gov and Barrass. Ben McKay is now our 2nd best defender.
Ziebs: Great game. I think he’s loving the stronger structure. Rapt for him.
Shiels: Other posters have said it, his poise and experience stood out at the ground. Won some key contests. Great short term pick up.
Bonar: Did the job. Can grow from here.
LMac: I thought he looked like he enjoyed the captaincy. Was physical, played his role.
LDU: Has arrived. Consistent ball winning all day.
Jye: Solid game. Doesn’t have to carry the team.
Cunners: In close he’s elite, as is his kicking. I think he’ll build his fitness through the year.
Tommy Powell! He believes now! Great he had more mid time. Some of those hand passes! He is loving his increased size, used it yesterday.
WilPhil: Sad for X, but Will got his chance and he did his job. Will grow from here.
Larks: He’s gotta love having CC down there and other genuinely dangerous players like PC. It’s not just him and the Bull trying to win games.
PC: 2nd year, not looking back. Loves a snap, gotta get him kicking the set shots.
Stevo: back him in, give him love. Let’s see if Al and Rata can bring out his best - cos that can be very good.
Taylor: what a mark! What a point 😂 F me dead! Underdone, but has X factor. Will improve.
Kayno: Clarko and Rats have coached against KT for years. I love his passion and commitment to our club. If Al sees a role for Sugar I’ll back him in. Did most things right last night.
Greenwood: Relished the role in the ruck like CC did. Solid game.
Scotty: Our general improvement makes things that bit easier for Bailey. He was solid yesterday and I thought showed increased physicality. He’s no Arch, but he’ll grow with stability and good coaching.
Bull: did his job. Not too much pressure on his shoulders now.

Let’s see how the fellas stick together next week 🙂
 
He just needs size. Was outmuscled late in the game (against far more experienced players), but what he brings with ball in hand is why he’s in the side.

He had some seriously good weighted kicks yesterday.

People can say what they want about Scotty Clayton, but he’s shown over a long career that he can nail a half back flank on draft night.

Miller completely cramped up late in the game. That’s why he got beaten. He was literally hobbling. That won’t happen again.

After watching the replay, i hope Paul Curtis pulls up ok, commentators were highlighting his head hitting the goalpost, but it actually slammed into the ? turf harder than that a split second beforehand, so it was a double whammy.
He’s Samoan, he’ll be fine. Theyd want to check the structure of the post.
