[TazD]

Won for Kennys milestone. Can't get any better than that.

Listening to Toddy post game interview, gee he sounds like just the Australian half of Mason Cox

’s accent. Absolutely uncanny.

 

[Powerade 08]

Clarkson looks lost. hopefully Hinkley was able to give him some tips

 

[jackag24]

Barely getting out of 1st gear all day and still winning by 60 points.. North are a hecking joke

Thought Mead and Ratugolea had really good games

 

[bomberclifford]

“Todd will never be a number 1 forward”



lol

YOU DESERVE THIS

 

[Us against the rest]

In the last 5 weeks North have been beaten by 60, 68, 38, 57, 45 by very average clubs in the Hawks, saints, Suns, Crows & Bombers so we showed today where we really sit with this hill billy coach.

 

[davesnothere]

Feel like we've been robbed of a game to watch.

North are not good.

 

[StuMan]

I missed the game due to work.
Was Hinkley chaired off after his record breaking game?

 

[Doctor Feel]

I reckon likely rioli plays next week. Not moving like a man with a calf injury. No issues going up and down the player ramp.

To be honest, Hinkley to North would probably improve them from where they are right now. Make it happen .

 

[Duck Farmer]

Jed with the lazy 17 and 1.

 

[Capital Power]

Well, that was certainly our best win since the last one.

 

[philreich]

Fitting that the margin for Ken's 259th game was 59 points.

 

[Visenfest]

Did enough

 

[TeeKray]

JHF BOG. Outstanding clearance work, just plays at a different level from everyone else.

Wines played a great game and even hit the scoreboard.

Ratugolea played his best game for the club.

Marshall suddenly remembered how to kick which was great.

Boak and Burgoyne worked hard end to end and had good games.

DBJ and McEntee both stood up after we lost Rioli early.

Wish Finlayson would stop having those snaps from 40+ metres, he never gets close to kicking them. One of those things that makes you wonder what the coaches actually do given that still hasn't been coached out of his game.

Sweet wasn't terrible but I think the last two weeks has settled the debate around the number one ruck once and for all. Soldo back next week hopefully.

No. They're keeping a lid on it. He's going to break the record again next week

 

[PJ Power]

The biggest positive was Ratugolea who was outstanding. Larkey looked sharp early but Esava was superb until the end.

Marshall’s leading game, albeit against poor opposition, was back to what we expect and his finishing sublime.

JHF was brilliant. Even with a quieter third term where he was tagged but still fought through it, he was comfortably our best.

Boak and Mead spread the field beautifully. Wines was very effective after a really poor first quarter. Burgoyne after a pansiish first half finished strongly as did the Jedi and DBJ.

The backs held up well.

Sweet was soundly beaten. Bergman with 7 touches and a stack of lost contests is a major worry. Just not coming on.

 

[Capital Power]

Mead & Burgoyne both looked lively and more settled in the team. Hopefully both have a run of games.

It actually looked like Ken was channelling Ted and being rested for a big celebration at home next Thursday. No celebrations at the end, hands in jacket pocket when on camera.

 

[RossFC]

Send North to the Vic ammos

 

[True__Believer]

Mead & Burgoyne both looked lively and more settled in the team. Hopefully both have a run of games.

Both have gone from fringe players to automatically selected

Could be worse. We could have Stephenson

 

[Powerade 08]

Ratugolea and JHF were great.

Are we playing Rozee so people don't forget hes the captain?

 

[Shaucob_Burjan]

Jed with the lazy 17 and 1.

I mean this is the standard for small forwards in the AFL. He plays like this, I have no problem. Those 6 possessions, 0 goal, 2 tackle games? Nah get out.

 

[Festerz]

Did enough

Accurate review.

A very unsatisfying game to watch. We almost played down to Norths' level that first half.


Surely there can't have been 5,000 there today and hearing a few hundred Norf supporters that were there booing Horney everytime he got the ball just made it even more pathetic. Parklands stuff. How about jeering the gutless performances of some of your senior players that second half.

No wonder Tasmanians are willing to mortgage their future children's livelihoods to get their own AFL team. Having Norf as the representation of the national game at their state capital must be soul destroying.
