The list might be better but these guys have gone backwards, significantly since their Syd years.

You're holding on to hope. I'd say it's more likely LMac gets relegated to the VFL and Simpkin gets medically retired than seeing either of them back in Syd winning contention.
Realistically its hard to see anyone challenging Sheeze or LDU over the next few seasons anyway.

Lmac has alot of work to do but Jy was our best player in that flogging against Hawthorn and the only one other than X who really busted his arse all game. He might not win another Syd but if he keeps fit and healthy it'll be a while yet before we replace him.

Very good. But no one has to go far on Bigfooty for woe is me posts. You'll find them everywhere, whether the team has just won a flag or has just been merged

I'm pretty sure there won't be any of them on Saturday night from supporters of the winning team.

And at least being merged would be a genuine reason to keep being negative every single post.

NOw if that tream was Poorta delielie then you might not be able to make that comment with confidence.
 
Sure but players like him always get a bad mismatch. U forget him matched up on Roughy in the goal square?

Yeah, sometimes the defensive structure breaks down, it happens, especially on repeat forward 50 entries after turnovers. We often see one of our KPDs out of position and then someone like McKercher or Fisher or McDonald has to try and spoil, but it isn't because McKercher is lining up on Darcy, it is because the KPDs are out of position.

Every side plays one or two rebounding defenders that are dubious defenders that are there to launch rebounds out of defensive 50. We also have an issue because someone like McDonald is in our defensive 50 and he is both a dubious defender at times and not there to rebound.

Sheezel is in the leadership group.
He just about is the leadership group. Monkey See and Monkey Do should be nowhere to be seen.

There will be. From someone. There's always someone. This is Bigfooty.

Anyway, worst 5 year stretches ever, excluding early Saints.

'27-31 North: 11.11% win rate
'63-67 Fitzroy: 11.11% win rate
'20-24 North: 13.88% win rate
Post-travel restriction North (R3 2020-2024): 12.26% win rate

Constant doom and gloom is pretty understandable here I think. Especially in an equalisation era where the system has only really cheated us out of JUH Thilthorpe, and otherwise serviced us reasonably. Breaks are our friend, but this website is also difficult to quit. So you get a few ranting and raving who should by rights be taking a break to calm down. Applies to me at times too. It's no fun getting misery out of something that's supposed to bring joy. Could use the ghosts of a few early North fans to lean on right now to be honest. Even after breaking out of that funk, they didn't see finals for another 14 years

Mate, I know the reasons, it's just the ad nauseum repetition that I find unnecessary.

Jy had just as many really awful games as he had good games.
 
It's a bit irritating how many oppo fans have come on here and said 'so and so could/will do wonders for you.' To do wonders for us at the moment, you need to be at an incredible level in order to be able to counteract the natural negative effect of training and playing in our system
I don't find it irritating, I find it condescending as ****.
 
Luke Parker = The Lewis Can’t Lose

Bit of look-a-like action going on there too?

Seems like a fair and balanced dynamic to me. They keep losing, we keep whinging about it. I guess it is unnecessary, but so is losing when you have as many players capable of good football as we do
 
Caleb Daniel for a future 3rd vs Dan Houston for a future first with something else coming back our way

I think i almost prefer Daniel in that scenario
