AFL Toast RND 18: Win Against the Roos

[HirdyLannister]

I actually think, sadly, some (most are fine) of the North fans on here are seriously mentally ill. I hope they can receive the help and support they need.

Wild billyboy is second from the right.

I am speechless...

Their supporters, and also the thousandth Groundhog Day of how North are just another team for us.

You could honestly predict three quarters of the post content in advance every time we play them.

Isn't that basically 90% of the threads on the forum generally?

Nup.

On the basis of yesterday Cutler could be a gun at North Melbourne, he's huge, he can break lines and absolutely pound the footy.

Hall and Ziebull just wax with each other to pad stats and then bang the ball up the line, no reason Cutler couldn't do that as well with the benefit of having a tan and a face that doesn't look like it's been caved in by a fart

I love it when they turn out to be an exact match of your mental picture.

I like how most of them are concentrating really hard to make sure they clap in rhythm.

Actually that might explain The Jesus' odd choice of music in the song contest.

 

[BrewSmackerVeiny]

Seeing that has made me feel somewhat depressed.

They did well to get the entire Norf Melbun fan base all together at once.

Everything is fine. There is no rivalry here.

Stats must be broken, 19 to both Ziebell and Atley?! I cant recall seeing them on the field

WOW

I watched the whole game and didn’t realise Atley was playing.

Ziebell has mastered the loose HBF seagulling around not doing any defending role. Imagine being a club who has to find the most unaccountable role in football to hide their Captain in, and he still can't play it to a high level.

 

[Call Me Cake]

10 minutes to go in the 4th quarter, Stringer lays a tackle which leads to his own goal.

It's the extra effort that does it for me. Had to clap.

 

[pazza]

We have learned to win ugly. The best teams know how to do that.

 

[scythe]

Norf supporters "Essendon supporters are obsessed with us"

Umm yeah. We're not the ones with a 260 page thread devoted to them on our board.

Had to chuckle at the one I read saying something along the lines of "check all the Essendon fans' pages, they're all reading our board LoL ReNt FrEe". Irony so thick you could use it to pad their rooms.

 

[The Donners]

As I was watching the game, I thought we weren't getting the same number of frees. Just had a quick look, 23:11 confirms my suspicions. That Smith trip was among the worst.

I was waiting for Smith to be called for holding the ball. Makes me think they realised the error in the non call.

 

[The Donners]

Their youf is dog sh*t.

LDU will be a star. Would love him to round out our midfield mix.

 

[Don Won]

I’d say that north supporters probably don’t like Essendon supporters because we spend so much time trying to diminish them. We laugh at their finances, their small supporter base, their claims of a rivalry, pretty much everything (lolNorth, hey). We seem to do this to them much more than, dogs, saints and Melbourne who are in pretty similar positions on most fronts.

We fixate on them fixating on us.

It might not be a healthy rivalry, but everyone is kidding themselves if they think it’s not a rivalry.

It isn't. North supporters have fixated on us for a lot longer. We cop nowhere near the amount of vitriol from those three clubs either, yeah there are a few of each, but it's the same with all clubs.

It's a one sided rivalry. Just because I don't like the supporters, mostly on BigFooty, doesn't mean I dislike the club. In fact I know plenty of North fans in real life and I like most of them more than plenty of Essendon supporters I know.

Yes.

But seriously I always forget.
