His facial expression after the GF made me question his character tbh.
Couldn't even crack a smile.

Longmire was like that after 1996
I was there and remember watching him for about a full minute. He was still as a statue and stone faced as everyone celebrated around the ground.
I love Longmire but that has always resonated with me.
 
Confirmed now in the WA press

West Coast midfielder Andrew Gaff has rejected North Melbourne's lucrative contract offer and will remain with the Eagles.

Gaff, who missed the Eagles' premiership win through suspension, has flown to Melbourne and on Sunday told North Melbourne football chief Cameron Joyce he had decided to remain with West Coast.

That quick plane trip did have me puzzled. Amazing.

The man clearly has no integrity.

So Joyce knew that he wasn’t coming? LOL

I pointed this out this morning and had some reply they were ‘irregular’

I pointed out that I post irregularly, I never say anything negative about north. At all. This doesn’t mean I don’t ever read the forum, I do daily.

For the people that come out of the woodwork to post negative thoughts, that’s them, not me.

On gaff, North are doing a great job. All the players that have entirely said no, have stayed put, I don’t see any other clubs having gun players deliberating north or their current teams.

I dont like the idea of taking findlayson. Effectly gws are trying to jetison him to ease their wages squeeze. If sheil walks the chances of getting kelly next year are zilch. Why on earth would they let their best player walk.
Lol one of the more silly posts I’ve seen. Because they will officially not be over the cap anymore they can force Kelly to sign with them even if he wants to go to North despite being free to sign with whoever he wants??
 
Bruce Abernethy?

Not bad Micky, Gibbo we weren't happy with when he left, my point though was or is, it's bloody hard to get players out of other clubs for a shit return for the original team.

GC will do well with compensation they receive for Lynch.They're probably getting overs being honest

Would you be frustrated with the club if they didn’t try to recruit gun footballers?

From where I sit, no club has been closer to Martin, Kelley, De Goey and Gaff than north has other than the clubs they decided not to leave

I love that they try. But they have also failed every single time. How long do we sit back and praise the club for trying?

At some point you are allowed to think they are not doing it right
 
I value loyalty & want our players to bleed blue and white.

Martin, Kelly & Gaff were partly swayed by loyalty to their team mates & that is something I admire.

The dominant story will be North misses out again but I think the reality is that for each of these players we were a genuine prospect. Loyalty prevailed & that is an intangible we are unable to control.
 
No joke I’d give our second rounder for Hannebery 3 time AA player, accumulator, it’s a risk but one worth taking imo
Jesus Christ Sydney should be giving up draft picks to get that over the hill scrub off their salary cap. The thought of paying him close to a mil into his early to mid thirties makes me want to make a noose.

I could be wrong, but Gibson seemed to leave because he thought he was a bit too good for us. Just like he thought he thought he was a bit too good for the boys at a suburban club before he took off at Port.

I was bleeding about Graeme Atkins. Not best pleased with D Motlop either.

Who cares stuff him A Thug ..
 
Interesting take.

Where is Josh Kelly in all of this?

Are some too bullish on him arriving next year?

There is no gaurantees in footy. All this talk about hand shake agreements and him coming to us at the end of 2019 is not factual. Kelly and his management haven’t gauranteed north squat.

The club thought he was over line last year and look what happened.
 
If North have any balls, they will re-put the contract to Kelly. Ask him is he in or out and give him 24 hours to decide. Tell him the contract won't be there after next year if he doesnt agree in those 24 hours. If he agrees, figure out a trade.
I'm with you but supposedly we have an agreement with GWS and Kelly that he will come to North at the end of his current contract. Also supposedly Kelly is a "Man of his word" and won't entertain an offer this year. And supposedly we don't want to upset GWS as they've said they will deal with us for Kelly at the end of his contract next year. My take. We have people at our club who think they know how to negotiate but if you look at what has unfolded over the last few years they are only average at the caper. :stern look
