Traded the pick twice amd landed powell, kossie and songa were the picks he held. Really hope tom clicks up a gear because either of those other blokes would have been handy.
We traded out of one of the better drafts into the worst draft of the last decade.

Was that the w***er from CD or did he get on board in 2020?

We haven't won in Adelaide since 2011. Hawks showing us how it's done.
Damning.
On the contrary my dear Watson err scottywiper, not damming at all but brilliant by the Hawks, you've got to give credit where it belongs they are youngish and are ready plus playing with lots of confidence and its showing, we haven't been ready while playing at Adelaide since our rebuild but I feel that might change next year, patience is the key, remember early this year when lots of our supporters said "I just want to see improvement, not fussed if we get beat but at least give us some hope"!

Well, well, straight after the bye we probably should have won a few games with a bit of luck and for the whole season we should have another seven wins, how's that for improvement and we haven't even scratched the barrel yet! With the trade/free agency and the draft this year I don't think there will be a North supporter who's not excited for 2025!

Seven more wins? What??? Are you Brady?
 
Darcy Fogarty from Adelaide looks like the original Magnum P.I.

To be fair, Adelaide were playing Hawthorn. Hawks are good this year and they’re in form at Adelaide oval

To be fair, Sydney were playing the Dogs. Dogs probably flag favourites and absolutely unbeatable at the scg.

There is a really good AFL competition going on atm - 15 teams playing well, plenty of upsets, some teams improving, some dropping back but all those 15 teams in with a good chance against any team and having a crack on the day.

Then there is the bottom 3 in a class of their own - with their own supporters arguing with each other about which club has shown the most progress versus each other whereas in reality each of these teams gets further and further back from the real competition going on.

I don't blame SA fans for turning away. Team has given them nothing to enjoy on field there and the supporter engagement has been non existent.

Was watching the Hawks thrash the Crows at Adelaide oval today. Genuinely wondering when the last time we could even think about doing that would’ve been. Pretty sad.
 
I love North having the record holder but Pendlebury absolutely deserves to go on next year, he’s got a second wind this season.
2025 wouldn't be enough on it's own to give Pendlebury the record.

He is on 399 games.

4 matches left this year.

403.

Boomer is on 432.

28 games to equal.

Evern if he played every game and the pies won the flag the hardway (all 4 weeks of finals) it would still leave him short.

If he did that though he would be playing 2026.

I have a feeling he is going to beat the record.

No player is going to be able to get close to it again.

Their club will want to give him that.
 
Pendles is playing okay but not well enough for beyond 2025.
And definitely will be cooked by 2026.

Boomer kicked how many against Sydney the weekend before that piece of shit sacked him?
