Spurs tried to play like Liverpool against Liverpool with a bare bones squad and got spanked as expected. Unfortunately I think Ange is being found out thinking his no plan B, C, D or E style of coaching doesn’t matter against the big boys. Nothing wrong with staying in the game for as long as...
Incredible grand final performance. 100% relentless 100% of the time. No one shirked an issue, when it was your turn to go in, you just did. The girls deserve it after being close so many times.
This trade will only break even if our F1 is around the 10-12 mark, Richmond’s F2 is around 20 and Whitlock becomes a very good player….otherwise this will be very hard to top for worst trade ever in pro sport.
Stunning comeback by Trump and entirely predictable I feel. The Democrats like our own Labor party has been slowly hijacked by professional activists and sneering political elites. The things that matter to the vast majority of ordinary folk is the economy/cost of living and security and not...
Absolute sabotage if that deal is actually being discussed at North. These reporters should be investigated by the AFL integrity department for being ****ing idiots…
Spoke to a few Bulldogs mates today. They reckon he is still ok and will play good footy for us. Obviously we sort of payed overs but if we can get 2-3 seasons of close to his best football then it will have been worth it.
Sheils was good last season, especially his calmness and leadership but kind of tapered off this year. Parker is a massive ‘upgrade’ and still has 2 good years left before father time starts I reckon. I’m wrapped with this guy, exactly what we need, an on field coach.
Keep 2. Cannot have enough guns. I want everyone in the footy world to be spinning their heads in 5 years when Sheezel gets parked in the forward pocket cause he can’t break into the starting midfield….
Been getting emails and texts all week re this auto renew crap which I've never ever ticked off on. My CC has expired so back luck NM membershite dept you ain't accessing my cc details anymore. I'm planning on going to the club a few weeks b4 the season and paying in cash like I did this year...
Excellent pick up. Just the sort of player we need. Can still contribute greatly, he’s not a washed up hack or the fringe player looking for a ‘cushy public service job’ types we’ve recruited in recent times.
77 remember playing kick to kick in the street at half time with my pies neighbours. 96 was in Northern stand. It was absolute relief, was drained completely. Remember going to the toilet every 5 minutes due to nerves. 99 was celebrating before the game in the car park, smoking bongs in the car...
We shouldn’t be made to look trade fools (again) for someone like Darling. He ain’t a big ‘get’, it reeks of desperation. Should basically be for nothing, we are doing WCE a favour here not the other way around.
Still follow South Melbourne Hellas in the local NPL. They’ve lost the last 3 Grand Finals unfortunately. Yeah chockers and all that….still go to some games mainly to catch up with mates and have a laugh. You get the occasional decent game but it’s mainly crap. I kind of like the local community...
This will be my 37th Grand Final that I’ve attended. Kind of helps that I’ve worked at the ‘G for just over 30 years (event staff). Have missed 4 since 1983 (covid and was away on holiday’94&10 replay). It’s not really a money thing for me, I simply love the footy and the big game atmosphere...
I like Cripps, he’s a good guy and one of my favourites but tonight the Brownlow medal lost a lot of credibility. No one in footy should be getting 45 votes. Absolute greats like Ablett, Matthews, Carey didn’t come close yet Cripps gets 45 for a mid range team. Stuff like this happens in the...
He did ok considering Rozee, Butters and JHF were average during the finals. There’s some real plodders in that team now like Dixon, Boak, Wines, though these guys have been absolute warriors. Maybe a freshen up of the list and not the coach.
28 years of basically finals year in year out, 5 grand finals in that time and the AFL and it’s stooges in the media still feed us this bullshit that Sydney is a ‘developing market’. Cola, academies, marquee signings, favourable tribunal decisions (Dunkley/Hall), favourable father son rules...
Was bumming around Europe that year. Rang my my mum around 6pm Melbourne time in order to find out who won. No internet, sports bars with live action, digital radio in those days. She put the phone next to the tv so I could hear what happened. I just screamed and screamed and screamed inside the...
Another wasted footy career. Incredible that Dermie had big wraps on this guy. Thought he put some good games together in that decent patch after the bye. Still, he’s just another in the long list at North of players just happy to be on an AFL list collecting a decent pay packet. Would thrive at...
Son of migrants so dad was mad into soccer and would take me to South Melbourne Hellas games back in the mid 70’s. North were also winning in that era so we became a blue and white household. Also the Greek flag is more or less blue and white stripes so that was also a factor. Being a kid you...
Real local suburban footy trailer trash behaviour from Ken. Could have really gone off out there(secretly wish it did).
Thougt Ginnivan squibbed it a few times out there tonight. Awesome game though.
Probably makes more financial sense to just buy some grand final package with a ticket included if North ever makes a GF instead of maintaining those high end membership packages for years and years in the vain hope we ever get there again. A few years ago I think it was GWS or GC had a grand...
Darling only if one year contract plus triggers for 2nd. The guy is finished but a fresh environment may envigorate him. We are ****ing desperate unfortunately.
Parker 100%. Can still probably get at least 2-3 years from him. Has a fantastic attitude and is a warrior.
Keep pick 2 and get the...
We’d be talking flags if somehow the planets had aligned and had JHF, Tarryn and Reid out on the field for us. 3 absolute out and out guns with the strut and attitude to match. Real broadway potential there for any club. But alas it wasn’t meant to be. The footy gods gave us Carey for basically...
Received my 38 year consecutive year digital certificate. Would have been nice to have my name on it though. Overall it’s been more good than crap in that time. Apart from the past 5 or so years we’ve been mostly competitive. Hopefully the good times can return soon.
But yeah, **** this auto...
