Had 25 possessions plus a goal on the weekend and did a decent defensive job on Reid. I'd say his current level cuts it, although I do expect significantly more upside from him.

Cam might look okay in the middle, but is our midfield better with him in it? I'm not sure it is. His disposal by both hand and foot is pretty poor. One contested possession against the Eagles doesn't scream high work rate. In a position we now have a bit of depth in he is sitting behind Curtis...

Their music is crap too. And don't get me started in mullets and shitty taches. Am I doing this right?

Amazing how Micky Conlan got so big back in the day.... Almost like he had a secret weapon.

That's not just the backline. Less forward 50 entries and more under pressure would make our backline players look a hell of a lot better.

I'd like to see improving connection between our mids and forwards. There was a great example last week where Daniel delivered into the forward line. Rather than kick it to the group of players, he kicked to the space behind them and Curtis was able to run on to a fairly easy mark. The kick...

Aus 96 NZ 39.

May not be his own head that he bashes against the wall...

And clearly he has let the club and supporters down by not providing a coffee cart.

According to Sammy Edmunds he is an "elite user of the ball"! And you all claim that the media pays no attention to North...

14 players in two years there. One is already gone. Of the remaining, I feel like 9 are a very good chance, barring unforeseen circumstances and potential trades, to still be on our list at the start of the 28 season: 2023 Colby McKercher 2 16 Zane Duursma 4 13 Taylor Goad 20 0...

It's very telling that we don't have a single home grown player over the age of 26 on our list, and very few in the 24 to 26 range. Our drafting from 2012 to 2016 was spectacularly bad.

This interview with Tom covers exactly that. https://www.afl.com.au/news/1266100/worth-the-weight-why-2025-could-finally-be-the-making-of-north-melbourne-kangaroos-midfielder-tom-powell

Seemed to have a pretty effortless long and penetrating kick.

You need to like your coffee extremely bitter though...

Hopefully, that's where bringing someone like Daniel in really makes a difference. If we can get the ball into the hands of Powell, Sheez, and Kerch through the midfield with just that little bit of space and time then our deliveries will be so much better. Need to hit that kick coming out of...

Every little bit helps...

Are those things not linked? Having high-quality half-forwards that can push up into the midfield and work back to create scoring opportunities either for themselves, or through goal assists will help us improve that inside 50 count. Guys like Sheezel, Parker, Simpkin, and McKercher all seem...

Without knowing at all, I'd say last year was probably not the best year for Will to look at changing clubs. Neither he nor the club would've have had much leverage. This year he appears visibly to be in better shape and is running harder and longer. Even if he doesn't become a member of the...

Well, it didn't work out quite as hoped.

Posters are getting shitty because Brady Rawlings is not a charming raconteur when interviewed. I think you need to lower your expectations!

Really? Just now?

At Carlton, they have brown paper bags full of fair(ish) maidens and golden Wonka tickets.

How the **** would you know? You're not in the room when negotiating. Every club gets a few wrong.

His job is to build a successful list. From where I sit he has made great progress on that front. I couldn't give a **** if he's not the most charismatic interviewee.

That could be an extremely competitive VFL side.

Have we really run out of things to complain about? Brady not being animated enough when being interviewed on a stream of an intra-club watched by maybe 1,000 North nuffies? FMD!

Do you know if the intention was to take Whitlock at 12 if we'd done that deal? There did seem to be a bit of the "we rated him much higher" sentiment. That can be classic footy cliche though.
