Game Day Round 6, 2021: North Melbourne vs Fremantle @ Optus Stadium | Saturday, April 24 @ 8:10pm [GAME ON; NO CROWDS]

[Samsquanch]

How many Freo goals came from blatant cheating?

We never were going to win, but seriously you could probably attribute 20-30 points from blatant cheating.

When the commentators are saying players want consistency, that’s a subtle way of saying the campaigners are cheating.

At least the commentators called a few tonight. But they had to I suppose as there were so many.

 

[RossHenshaw]

Derm" gota get better than that- Shaun Ately".

Yep , dermie & kingy seeing how diabolical deer in the headlights atley is .. but we still have people with no idea still defending him here ...

 

[Roosurgence]

At least the commentators called a few tonight. But they had to I suppose as there were so many.

I would chip in if Noble wanted to call it out in his press conference.

We are a soft target and will continue to get umpired this way until someone calls it out.

 

[RossHenshaw]

For all the talk about how talented Thomas is, he gets caught with the ball a hell of a lot.

Very lazy footballer

 

[nelroo]

Atley was really disappointing tonight. At least 5 diabolical and costly turnovers. We could have won that game if we had been able to hit up a player with a simple kick and hold simple marks.

Not bad for a kid that only gets the center bounces when we are 10 goals down.

Had 13 at half time playing in Siberia.

Would of had 35 tonight if given the same opportunities as Mahony and Thomas in the middle.

 

[Caracas]

Atley and Mahony are literally in the opposition bests every week.

Mahony was good. Unfortunately, I have to admit Atley was bad tonight. He was great last week.

[Waussie]

Yeah I have , my point is if he is going to spend the next decade playing in the middle then he needs to spend as much time as possible in the middle especially in the next 3 years which are our development years . It’s even more important if his fitness is not up to scratch this is a perfect year for him to get on the job match fitness . Now if he’s injured he shouldn’t be out there playing as a high half forward .

If he is injured he shouldn't be playing. My point is he show no defensive effort in the middle or around the ground, he is a weak link. There are others that have had injury interrupted seasons and are a lot fitter and show more effort.
I don't expect him to be a complete player, but there's no excuse for the lack of defensive effort, if he can use his speed in offence, he needs to do it the other way.

 

[Agenda 21]

I'm sure the AFL, along with all the media ****heads, will be talking up, this footy.

Fair few hammerings, not only this round, but this season.

If you rule, during chaos, you reap, what you sow.

Don’t let stats fool you. Mahony possessions usually result in a turnover.

I would think most players hate playing with a bloke that chips the ball on top of their head to be smashed constantly.

He should be playing VFL.

 

[Waynesworld]

Gotta feel sorry for Derm and the crew commentating this game tonight, they drew the short straw.

Mahony was not good.

 

[teethmeetsflesh]

I will no longer convince myself that we are a chance to win anything this year. Might as well save myself the frustration and just watch the match highlights each week.

 

[Nylex]

Improvement and effort are there to see.
Modern game plan of quick possesion football and speed is there to see.
No injuries tonight.
Great effort J.Walker to finish the game so strong.
Ziebell, Thomas, Stephenson, Powel all very good games.
Like the pace shown by Stephenson, Bonar, Atu, Young, Menadue.
Mahoney and Atley need to quickly sharpen there skills and decision making under this game plan.
Forward line needs more punch.... Bring in Garner asap and swing J.Walker at times once Tarrant or Corr are fit again to play in defence.

in, next week.

The big man will probably kick 5.

I won't boo him, if he plays.

Watch Melbourne bring Ben Brown in, next week.

The big man will probably kick 5.

I won't boo him, if he plays.

He would most likely kick 10 and I wouldn’t boo him, I don’t think many North supporters would.

That shit is for Collingwood supporters.

That sh*t is for Collingwood supporters.

I would honestly brawl with any North supporter, that decided to boo him, or Maj.

It was the only thing I ever supported Scott on. And we paid big time for it (allegedly he was also fined).

And now Scott works, for the AFL.

Won me some good coin, back in the day.

Good for you. I wouldn't back this one to know where the goals were on a football field.
