  ' Pink.
• Simpkin, Scott, and Wardlaw playing very well
• Xerri in a good battle against Grundy
• Sheezel a little bit more fumbly than we're used to
• Larkey's lead, mark, and goal potentially his best all season. More of that please.
• Darcy Tucker is a bit of a whipping boy but works hard and is a good kick (most of the time...)
• Kal Dawson struggling big time against Logan McDonald
• Aidan Corr doing well.
• Very lucky that Powell's shank didn't cost us a goal.
• Teakle unsighted but that's okay.
• We're in this contest and that's good to see.

 

[Rod Stroker]

This will be an unpopular opinion I'm sure, but at some point folks on here need to admit that us passing on McDonald (highest rated player on the ground) ahead of Phillips (playing VFL in the 17th ranked team) was a mistake

 

[Samsquanch]

I feck:ng hate Sydney, and I feck:ng hate their postage stamp ground.

And Papley.

 

[archereleven]

Midfield is playing too loose. Defence has warts on it. Forwards playing well, considering most i50 ball are bombs

I feck:ng hate Sydney, and I feck:ng hate their postage stamp ground.

Yep. I despise them too.

 

[franjon]

Nice OOTF not paid. Fairdinkum, that's atrocious.

 

[JGreezy]

This will be an unpopular opinion but at some point people need to get over it. No chance he stays at North through two bad seasons, being a young kid from WA.

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

The broken tackles are what get me.

Just completely technique based and it’s rampant across the team.

 

[Ruckle]

I keep getting freaked out by commentary referring to us as "good defensive team". Feels like landed in an alternate universe.

X doing way better than Grundy around the ground.

 

[Waynesworld]

Windy day + shit ground = scrappy game.

 

[Amicalola]

I know we're over honourable losses, but this looks like it will be a competitive loss. Against most teams I agree that's a no, but against Sydney in Sydney, I'm satisfied with that.

 

[Nylex]

It’s a very small ground.. just get the footy in deep and give the forwards a chance. We don’t need to root around with 3 or 4 handballs from a stoppage

 

[Only Forwards]

Do you own a Delorean with a flux capacitor?

 

[The Nostradamus]

Dawson is making Logan McDonald look like buddy franklin

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

Papley told he can’t run past his line.

Papley runs past his line.

All good.

 

[The acurate one]

Well at one stage I could have cashed out and made 58 bucks or thereabouts.
We got this.
*Pink to finish with 8 majors and we sing the song again.
WE are going ok without pointing out obvious errors, we're ok

* shit i Forgot Pink kicked 2 of our 3, Probably should have cashed out whrn I had the chance.


oh well.

 

[AnEmptyChair]

Our best player has been rubbish so only up from here. North by 10 goals

 

[Rod Stroker]

This will be an unpopular opinion but at some point people need to get over it. No chance he stays at North through two bad seasons, being a young kid from WA.

just signed a 4 year extension to not move back to WA

 

[franjon]

Yep. I despise them too.

I don't, but that decision where Corr went out of his way not to infringe and it was out on the full anyway was baffling.

 

[Caracas]

Not Pink?

We’re nothing if not knee-jerk. Dawson’s first missteps for the season and we’re ready to burn him at the stake at quarter time against the competition leaders. At least, our expectations have risen, I suppose.

 

[Carey4life]

Dawson is depth only

Such a rubbish call. Developing player developing.

Put this negative absolutist bs in the bin.

 

[TurnoverMerchant]

Btw anyone complaining about our inability to go with Chad Warner

…I don’t think anyone has been able to go with him this season?

 

[DrZaius]

He's playing well, but against the 17th ranked team as you said

 

[Steele7]

How can you go not kick over the mark after the siren goes. And move sideways. AFL rules are so stuffed
