Review Dees v Norf - the Good, Bad & Fugly and a Happy Norf to you all

[Mich0]

Goodwin:
“Credit to North”
“Was great to get off the bye and reset as a club”
“We will build on this win”
“We are proud of what we did tonight”
“Tom Sparrow stepped up in the middle of the ground”

Goody was also suprised Rivers played well in the midfield saying sometimes injuries open up opportunities like this.

Would be good to see Bowie and Mcvee run through midfield also.

 

[Mich0]

Remember when winning was fun because I don't. Maybe the win against bulldogs, port and maybe the saints because we got to 100. There's just nothing to enjoy every other game feels like we've held on.

Goody will also refuse to trade out any talent like Oliver and Petty again.

 

[Topkent]

North couldn't fire a shot against Collingwood last week because they froze up and ran out of legs. Against us they ran the game and played with confidence. The cliff we are falling off might be even more devastating than I imagined

 

[Topkent]

I'm more devastated about winning this than losing to Carlton in the semi. Heartbroken.

Not according to Goodwin if you watch the presser.

Footy is an interesting game, sometimes you need to be behind to play with some freedom. I reckon if we were 39 down we'd probably lose by 39 because the team has no dare.

We would lose by 34 after we kick 0.5

Melbourne Storm

 

[Topkent]

Man how is there a game where both teams lose and feel like shit after that isn't a tanking game

I actually feel bad for north, had a chance to win back to back games and lost by under a kick and had chances to win both as well

 

[schmuttt]

As much as we all want Goodwin to be shown the door it won’t happen. We have enough pure talent to win games against North etc. although fair enough we could have got done tonight. We banked enough wins early to mean at worst we probably finish 13th-14th at worst. Goody then keeps his job. Next year it’ll be game on though.

I actually think we might sack him if we finish that badly, but maybe I'm just dreaming.

 

[Topkent]

Gone from Melbourne losing to ruining my weekend to now Melbourne winning ruining my weekend

 

[Topkent]

Best case scenario it falls apart a little and Goody walks away thinking he can't go again with this group, I agree we won't be the ones to pull the trigger

We should win 2 more. Looking at the ladder the teams from saints down won’t get to 11 wins. And with a ten win season when we had a crappy off and pre season I reckon Goody gets another chance. As much as we should move on I can’t see the club doing it.

 

[Topkent]

If I was coach I'd tell em don't even sing the song, you don't deserve it after that. Singing the song is a reward, they should go straight into the meeting room and have a 360 feedback session

WE didn't have a crappy off season. Clayton Oliver did. Nothing else was wrong so that excuse doesn't wash

 

[Topkent]

Biggest mistake was tagging Oliver, whoever is the Oppo analyst hasn't actually watched us. If I was north I'd be giving him the ball cause it's a guaranteed turnover

 

[markm106]

Goody will also refuse to trade out any talent like Oliver and Petty again.

Those two players have something in common. No pre season. Petty in particular is not moving well at all and needs a spell. Clarry had an absolute mare tonight. Got sucked in by the tagger. He’s too far off the pace to impact many games. He seems in a better place now off the field so here’s hoping he puts in a huge pre season on the track.
The talk of a Petty trade seems to have died down and crows probably gone cold on him. Get his body right and put him back next season.

Off field. Not much seemed to be going right.

 

[Mich0]

Wouldn’t surprise to see Lamb use pick 7 (2024) + 2025F1 for something like pick 2.

The arrogance of this club they would be thinking that F1 will be pick 18 when it’s more likely to be pick 2-3

Meh that effects weak clubs. Tigers always had some stuff going on during their era and didn't effect them. Our clubs a straw house.

We had a C of an off season. Every campaigner came after us. They didn’t have their best player do a Clarry or a bloke testing positive to coke on game day and possibly be dealing it. And all the crap about Goodwin. The culture seems a bit cooked and it’s wearing on everyone.

Sounds like a good strategy. Trading up to get a guaranteed star, say a Reid type.

If I was the players id be calling the coach into the meeting room and telling him some home truths about how hes ruined what should be a fun job. It should be all out civil war going on with the club right now but none of these campaigners have the balls to say anything, just stuck in denial thinking its still 2021 when its more like 2019, just shit wins covering over the cracks some weeks. I hate them all so much.

 

[Oceanlabxo]

Is Roffey even at the matches?

i don't even think she barracks for melbourne

Listening to the end of the game and Gawn on fox saying he was happy with our contest and defence in the 2nd and 3rd and were taking some learnings. It's cult like.

Everything's so flat, even when we're winning it's just flat and repetitive
