Round 13 will forever be known as the round the changed North Melbourne

I thought he was actually fitting in quite well?

Is it just me, or could things be looking less daunting then once thought with a much more different outfit running out on Saturday night? The team will be looking much similar to round one then our last outing at AO.

I knew I wasn't imagining it when I saw imagery of north players falling behind players in the opening female exhibition game

Barrett said that North is a bit like a scattergun, approaching anyone who is available. I don't know how I feel about this

Let's keep flooding our boy Nick Bowen with tweets until he gives us something decent

Ruck maj, play Goldie at FF, throw Petrie down back - simples?

You're right, I can't argue with that

But it really hasn't - Still lacking a smart damaging mid and looking at KPD

Then I would like to know why we were heavily into him just less than 12 months ago

When our most shinning light within the last five years would probably have to be Clarke - I'd say no

I'm just banking on the idea that our slump was due to North not gaf about the season towards the end. They were cooked, players were injured etc. Here's hoping that they only ever had eyes for finals footy

Lol - losing Wellsy would suggest we have players to replace him. We do not. Don't be stupid Bard.

How we are into mature aged FA's and using draft picks, rather than chasing elite talent is beyond me. We clearly dont have the greatest track record with development

Yep agree - going for FA's again just wont cut it

hartlett would be insane

Showing interest in 26 year old plus players who have been around long enough to be decent at the game is just starting to seem like safe list management from Joyce for a team who doesn't want to bottom out.

Wow - A grade midfield talent was what we were after for two years straight. That big fish is starting to appear more as the Loch Ness monster. We wont be seeing shit.

Where has this Well's leaving business come from? I guess a positive in the Brown talks means they are still in strong desire for finals contention for the years to come - but does that influence scott's desire to play more youth?

I think his dad is good friends with JB?

Lol if bard does do that, which he will - choosing mature players who are performing. We will be in the exact same position we were in within the next year or two. Disgruntled youth being frustrated with opportunity. Tread carefully bard, tread carefully.

Has O'meara's management been talking with Essendon? And if they go to the pre-season draft are we ruled out, surely the only way we could be in the running is if we made a monster offer correct?

Looking at the R1 line-up, I agree it is pretty much almost an identical line-up. Should Waite be fit, does Maj Stay? And if Jacobs and Wright get the all clear - do they take Dumont's and Mullet's spot?

The only way I think we have a chance at winning this is if North come out with a kamikaze style approach and blitz a thirty point 1st-2nd lead - then play that defensive stuff for two quarters. If we don't get on top early, it will only be a matter of time before Bett's, Walker and Jenkins...

Man, I think he is our only creative player.. sigh :(

I agree, I just wonder if its something they would actually do considering their previous stance. With Hibberd, Neilson, EVW, Durdin, McKay and Mountford with no exposure and Clarke and Wagner with little, one would think now is a good time to use early round picks for a trade - unless Cam Joyce...

Ziebell, Clarke, Turner (even though I don't know where he plays next year) get dibs on 11.

Surely north/brad would continue there philosophy about keeping all draft picks?

Mitch Hibberd and Swallow in the same line up could be deadly - that would be a midfield revamp

Players of immediate value I can consider them being interested in: Tarrant, Thompson, Jacobs, Atley, Clarke, Durdin, McKay Potential value: Mullet, Daw, Garner, Wagner, Mc Kenzie, Wagner, Preuss, Black. Besides Mullet and maybe Daw, those are the only two I think members could ideally be ok...
