Cunnington and Higgins superb for North. Brad Scott turning Daw into a decent defender is a masterstroke. Very good coach in my book.

17 disposals with a mere 72 meters gained as a forward seems crazy.

Took 12 contested marks in his first 6 games and then it took it took another 25 games to take another 12 contested marks.

Didn’t watch the whole game
Certainly not a fan of either side today but gee I'd love to see Carlton beat Collingwood.
Edit- I went to watch this game and 7mate have bloody *Ice Road Trucker repeats on instead, shows the interest levels in footy up here if they are backing IRT to have more viewers than the AFL. MAAAAATE!
*Attention Gill the Dill.

Might be a good call by channel 7 though, even carlton and collingwood fans haven't bothered turning up to the game by the look of the empty bays. Looks like around 50,000 at the start of the game which is poor for these two teams.
No FTA game on in Vic either. Ch7 did this last sunday too. The Cats/Tigers match of last week was only on Foxfooty, the game of the round not shown FTA anywhere..
..have to wonder how ch7 got the tv rights, it's like a -I've got them and I'm not going to show the games, but you can't have them- attitude.
...quite pathetic and very annoying.
Mum loves her football up in the country as do others, but they miss out on lots of good games. I was so peed off not seeing that game last sunday while I was up there.

It's a fox game jase. Ch7 have no rights, unless it comes under a home state deal. Not sure how that works in Victoria.
I think the amount of games they televise FTA per week is constant, so if we get an extra Thursday night the Sunday is Foxtel’s.

If you consider 40 points to 3/4 time decent

They managed their 5 good minutes each quarter which they seem capable of before dropping away completely.

They don't have a sustainable game plan. Numbers back & they don't get flogged. If they try to kick a dependable score they get scored against heavily.
And they swap back & forth from week to week half to half.
The bye weeks are always a bit funny with which games get shown on Mate from memory.
Correct and Brisbane got 4 games this week and last. Sometimes we get 5, if there's a 'special' game like ANZAC Day or Easter or if both are Fox games, we might get 2 Saturday games if one of us is playing Sunday. Because Lions and Suns are both guaranteed in Brisbane on FTA, we miss some good games.
This week we got Thursday, Friday and 2 on Saturday. With a lot of us out to go to the Gabba, and the Suns on immediately before, a lot wouldn't have seen the Suns game, so it feels like we got 3. Worst part is, most Suns games aren't worth watching, so it eats into our 'allocation'.

I thought it was actually only 3.5 games a week. Either way its been a worse deal for consumers IMO.

We would be as high as 13th on the ladder if it were based on points for, alone!
Unfortunately for points against we are second last.
For every good, there is a bad!
