North just look that far off it.
They're gonna get Wardlaw this year too.

Makes you wonder what they might do with Pick 1, because they really don’t need another mid.

If they get pick 1 and go Wardlaw then they'll just trade a mid out. Pretty sure any contracted players wouldn't have any issues okaying a trade out of that sh*thole.

 

[Pessimistic]

North kicking to their favourite end now.

Nice to see cats at an unfamiliar cheat ground

Probably give it to gws for some first round picked player who is best 22 fringe

 

[StillAtLarge]

North look so structurally naive. Acres of space through the middle + up forward

They take him, considering Cunnington may be done.

 

[The hands of stone]

How many goals a game is the ' but we won the BF poll for best youth ' tax ?

They look miles off the 2nd worst team atm

 

[Max Powers]

Shame we don't have superior youth like North. But oh well...what can you do?

 

[View from the nosebleed]

North are actually playing well, just can't get a decent shot on goal.

 

[View from the nosebleed]

I know we are doing similar things with O'Meara (and Mitchell to a lessor extent), and I realise you have to build for the future, but by god North are wasting Todd Goldstein

I'm only going by what the commentary said last night.

That'll learn ya

 

[The hands of stone]

If Geelong want this margin could be heading to triple figures

 

[almuz]

North have approx 10 talented players and then just crap/mediocrity

 

[H00t]

North with only 3 points form turnovers to 3qt. That is diabolical.

One of their most talented players hasn’t shown up this year. Tarryn Thomas that is.

Going into the season I thought a North midfield with Goldy, LDU, Simpkin, Thomas, Greenwood, Powell, Stephenson, JHF might surprise. It's painful to watch.

Midfield is good, they have bugger all else other than Larkey!

Norths midfield around the clearances looks really good.

Problem is in open play they fall apart.

And their defence and forward line is terrible.

Yep. Won clearances 38 to 27 (+11) but lost inside 50s 45 to 62 (-17). Everything after the first possession has been a mess this year.

is an ideal recruit for Geelong. A bag of goals against weak opposition and will do bugger all against the good ones.

I don’t necessarily disagree, but what then of Phillips and Powell?

They desperately need talls.

 

[chopflop]

They desperately need talls.

They also really need small and medium defenders. MacDonald aside they don't have much.
They are playing Young and Turner who are VFL level.

A lot of holes in their list

I think a major issue for them is their coach tbh.
Did they job they needed last year , but looks out of his depth at the level in comparison to the other newbies .
