Port vs NM - Game thread and banging on and all that

[gustev]

Forget about the pick, don't even worry about the pick, just know that he is basically going to be the cornerstone of our defence for the next 10 years.

Dunno if anybody else saw it but he cracked the shits bigtime for letting Westoff have too much space and have an uncontested mark inside 50.

I've seen some good signs so far.

The young blokes are playing well (ie not relying on Simmo)

Ross, Wells, Mcmahon, Campbell (even though he is missing).

Ben Ross will play 200 games for North Melbourne. We have the heir apparent to Boomer. HE FECKING LOVES PLAYING IN THE MIDDLE.

Oh and the umpires...

back at 3qtr time.

Agree. We didn't get him so he would look flashy and stand out. We got him for his height, athleticism and the footy brain he's got to go with it. He's also deceptively strong. He is going to be a nightmare for tall forwards to play on......
and what we're seeing now is just the beginning.


........sh+t......
he's just given away a free kick and goal! oh well

And once again the holding the ball decisions are going one way.

Um, that was blatant. The boy needs to use first option.

 

[pharro]

You gutless swine Motlop. Going to ground against Campbell. Weak as p1ss

 

[Cadda]

Fair call, but I do expect more. Maybe that is unreasonable. He hasn't been bad tonight - just I expect more.

Its a shame a few more people on this board don't take the same stance with Wellsy...

 

[pharro]

Um, that was blatant. The boy needs to use first option.

Yeah fine but we've had about 8 blatant ones not paid.

I think everyone on this board hopes to see more from Wellsy.

19851 today at the game.

Six goals 13 behinds.

Give you that, plus some stupid ones against.

We are kicking for goal like hacks, although they've missed a couple.

 

[pharro]

Who is on that loser Lonie?

PS. Can't believe that anyone named Lonie has managed to rack up 100 games.

 

[GallopingGasometer]

19851 today at the game.

That's pathetic.

Daniel you're a star!

 

[pharro]

Carn Wellsy

And a great S Power feed

 

[giantroo]

### Me!!! Lonie!!!!

 

[GallopingGasometer]

Goldstein can palm the ball, we just need to catch it!

 

[Flawed Genius]

Sorry boys, my laptop lost power.
Spent a while looking for the cord..

58-55 at the moment/

 

[Archer_11]

This is fecking disgraceful. If we can't beat a team who is tanking we don't deserve to play out the season let alone tank with the rest of them.

 

[Flawed Genius]

Ben Ross will be a superstar.

Ebert gives away a bit of a free kick and the Hawks supporters on Bay 13 start a "Danielle Pratt" thread.

 

[Flawed Genius]

The game has gone up a notch.
As the commentators say, season defining quarter.

 

[NMFC ALWAYS]

Big Bad Ebert Is Throwing His Weight Around Ahhhh Ffs

 

[Flawed Genius]

Pratty's eye gouge?

 

[FrangaRoo]

This is fecking disgraceful. If we can't beat a team who is tanking we don't deserve to play out the season let alone tank with the rest of them.

Shameful yes. Long way to go though.

A team with two Cornes, Burgoyne, Pearce & Motlop....cant be accused of tanking. too many skillful players.

 

[NMFC ALWAYS]

this Is Fecking Disgraceful. If We Can't Beat A Team Who Is Tanking We Don't Deserve To Play Out The Season Let Alone Tank With The Rest Of Them.

Keep Ur Shittt Thoughts Until After The Siren Pls Roo Boy

 

[Flawed Genius]

Ebert makes it 64-55

 

[giantroo]

Keep dropping North,Keep dropping... (Bleeding...)
