    Rookie Draft

    i know it is a bit pointless talking about rookie draft because we have little idea about who will be there. We have 4 rookie spots available. Club has said we will rookie Delaney if still there. I would support giving a rookie spot to Nahas. Until injured I thought he was lively and gave value...

    Just thinking

    What would Jack have got if he hit Westhoff in the manner Walker did. Cannot believe Walker did not get weeks for that.

    Keath remains one of those left-field options that is never far from the surface, a richly talented footballer who was looked upon as a 200-game key defender during his school years at Melbourne Grammar. PICK ME: EXCLUSIVE VIDEO OF THE HOTTEST DRAFT PROSPECTS Watch the 2013 AFL Draft LIVE on...

    Rookie draft discussion

    There are two previously top ten prospects who elected to play cricket and have returned to football. Alex Keath and Meyrick Buchanan. Might be worth a look.

    RIP Robert Smith

    Thanks Go Kangas. Nice to know that my advancing years still allows me to dredge up names from the past. Eddie was a great bloke and a terrific foil for Robert.

    RIP Robert Smith

    Sad news. Last time I spoke to Rob was outside the footy having a quiet smoke with both of us lamenting that we should give up, especially as Rob had just come out of hospital. He was a great North person and a consummate hospitality person.twenty years ago I took my mum, sister and wife for a...

    Past #42: Scott McMahon - club won't renew contract (29/9) & Loose retires (13/10) - thanks Loose

    Cleaning out some old papers and came across 2003 phantom drafts and actual draft. What surprised me was to realise that Scott was our third round rookie choice. I think we tend to forget how many good players come from the rookie list. Gibson was our first choice rookie. Phantom draft...

    North Ballarat v Collingwood

    Mabon a late withdrawal and reserves ruckman hurt in an earlier game. No one in this game commanding a senior spot unlike last week. Garner a lot bigger than I thought.

    After downloading calendar to i calendar and then looking at fixture I realise just how terrible our game times are. For a side that finished in the eight it is bloody disgraceful.

    2013 scheduling

    On what planet does Gold Coast versus saints outrate nth v collingwood. This game has prime time free to air and we have pay tv crap time. It is neither fair nor logical.

    Calendar download

    A while back there was a link that allowed us to download a fixture and it automatically went into our calendar which was a great help in planning. Does this still exist and if so can anybody provide details.

    Baked Potato Cup - Geelong

    I think we are in desperate need of two key defenders. We appear to have a surfeit of tall forwards but few options, if any down back. Maybe the thinking is that one or two of those key forwards will develop into a key defender. I suspect they may be regretting not taking Brisbane's second round...
