    O.K, who thought that the game was over?

    Had Buckley kicked that goal it was all over. Rex Hunt had already had the fat lady singing...again...Maggot supporters were giving it to us, the little yellow maggots were killing us ( how dare Malthouse ever whinge about the treatment the maggots get ) we'd played crap all day and all of this...

    Indigenous Team of the Century

    PHIL KRAKOUER should have been in. End of story. I didn't see the interstaters or anyone before Syd Jackson but Phil was better than most of the ones i did see including Long, Wanganeen, Lewis,Winmar , white, Johnson,McLean and Burgoyne. I couldn't split him and Jimmy and i reckon they were...

    Who starts on Shotgun?

    Too smart for Watt, Too quick for Arch, Makey would rely heavily on help upfield. It,s Pratt for me. Would lose Sinclairs creativity that close to goal and i don;t think i've seen him play that role before. Too risky. Anyone else? If we fill the hole it won't matter or better still play...

    Seating this week?

    I presume my membership will get me in and i'm happy to sit with the cheer squad. My regular home game seat is near the wing, city side and i get a bit envious when the players gather near the race to acknowledge the supporters over there. We get a better view of the game but miss the intimacy...

    Big games this weekend.

    i went through each team in contentions last 7 round s today and it's too early to tell who will finish where. Very few obvious results. We just have to keep on winning and hope the others all fall over. Surely the Football Gods will be withus this year after recent fade outs. With 7 rounds to...

    Telstra Dome Surface

    I don't know how hard it is underfoot, but you watch the replays of even 10 years ago and some of the mud heaps they played on and you'll realise how good they get it today. Ok so they slip a bit, big deal. The hardness is the real concern but what can they do? Put 2 feet of sponge and rubber...

    Seating this week?

    An away game against Hawthorn but at Telstra Dome. Does our membership get us in and a seat with the Gods on level 4 or a seat somewhere lower and more civilised? Our away games at the G get us seats in the AFL members reserve at ground level. And how come we've swapped home grounds against...

    Another week, another egg in the face!

    Petrie keeps getting a game cos he's a big body who puts in. You can't fault his chasing , blocking and tackling. Obviously he needs to get more of the pill himself and improve his disposal but who do we have who is a better option. He fills in Centre half forward and the ruck and even centre...

    Who will get Williams???

    Apparantly on the track he is one of Norths quickest but unfortunately his brain is a little slow in telling his legs when to run. He'd get towelled up by Williams as Makepeace did last time when the Hawks got a run on in the 2nd half. we need someone smart, quick and able to read the play. He...

    Archer in the clear

    If he did get him it was only minor contact and Chick said there was nothing in it. Probably just highlighted another free we missed out on where Chick was holding Arch. He was just trying to break the Silvagni like hold!!!

    Kings Cross. A variety of entertainment for before and after the game!!

    Another week, another egg in the face!

    Call me stubborn and yes he is doing better away from the goals but surely a smart coach would put whoever he,s playing on straight to the goalsquare where one on one he has no idea! By the way i know Lloyd only kicked one goal but he did take 12 marks around the ground on Watt. But saying that...

    Standard of Umpiring...

    I was sitting with Richmond and Hawthorn supporters and they all agreed with me. Does that mean we had 8 one eyes?????????

    Laids: "Carried a few passengers tonight"...

    Surprised no-one has mentioned Makepeaces' game. With a player like Matera who is quick and can take a grab you can't give him an inch. Yet Troy gave him far too much room.And what about the 2nd quarter when Matera flew and took the mark 20 out. Troy was standing at the back of the pack hoping...

    Standard of Umpiring...

    2 frees against Thommo in the first quarter were wrong and cost us 2 goals. Then Staker knocked Pratts arms after he marked the ball, turned and goaled. Should have been Pratts free. We should have been 3 or 4 goals up and on a role at Quarter time but for the umpiring. And Matera s mark in the...

    Past #32: Eddie Sansbury - drafted in 2003 - 40 games in 5 years - delisted at end '08

    i know i'm being ultra critical but at one stage Eddie stopped chasing just as an eagle slowed down. If he'd kept chasing he would've caught him. You may only catch them 1 time out of 10 but when you do it,s hugely rewarding and inspirational to the team! Never give up!! I liked his last quarter...

    Past #39: Leigh Harding - selected with #13 in 2000 RD - retired at end of 2010 season - coaches at BL

    It may have come down to Davey and Harvey but Harding is now playing that position and this time last year i wouldv'e flicked him without a trade!! So his stock has improved considerably.

    Past #39: Leigh Harding - selected with #13 in 2000 RD - retired at end of 2010 season - coaches at BL

    Has time proved Laidley right? This time last year you would only pick Davey. But with Hardings improved form who would you pick now? Both are quick, tackle well. Davey is a better kick but Harding is better overhead . I know we couldn't get davey cos of money probs but we also had a wealth of...

    Laids comments about Rawlings

    I don't think he has much in common with simmo other than being a tagger. Rawlings isn't a great kick but it does'nt take much to be a better kick than Simmo. I think Simmon is better one on one and much better over head but Rawlings keeps doing the job so i'm not complaining.

    Why we hate Richmond. Your favourite memories here

    I don,t hate Richmond but i despise Collingworms. I come from a Kanga family but in 1973 my then 6 going on 7 year old brother said to my old man," dad, do North ever win?". Dad replied, " No son not too often". So my brother dec ided to follow the Premiers of that year who turned out to be the...

    A change is as good as a holiday. I initially thought i'd found a new site. Looks like the same old info though.
