    Past #32: Jacob Edwards - drafted w/ #1 in '20 MSD - delisted end '23 w/ 0 NM games & 0 NM goals

    Wow, after all those encouraging words and stats I'm now a believer too. When I started reading this thread I had the same opinion as Event Horizon, a few posts back.

    Coach Alastair Clarkson III - new NMFC senior coach until at least end 2027 - NMFC board approved AC to start 1/11 amid ongoing HFC racism investigation

    Just listening to Luke Hodge on SEN - he's very pro-Clarko and footy smart. He'd make a pretty good defence coach I reckon. Apologies if it's already been done to death, but would Hodge be a worthy candidate for Clarko's support team?

    Oppo Camp The Kerridge Award 2024 - RIP Cam McCarthy, former great of this thread

    Sadly, 6 goals to this week's nominee. 3 votes in the Sunday Herald Sun were awarded to "Alan" Sexton. The hallmark of a worthy winner of the Kerridge is being unknown in the media and by your opponents. Tick, tick. A = Arthur, Angus, Anton, Andrew, Aristotle, Aaron, Alex - take your pick.

    Don't know. I've blocked all previous games from memory, except the win over the Tigres.;)

    Oppo Camp The Kerridge Award 2024 - RIP Cam McCarthy, former great of this thread

    Didn't nominate him before the game but I'd like to nominate .... Sexton as a worthy winner of the highly prized Kerridge Award - named as I recall after a bloke who kicked 5 or 6 for Adelaide against us one night at Etihad or whatever it was called back then and was dropped two weeks later...

    The young talent Clarkson has to mould

    Are Charlie Comben and Miller Bergman on your list? I've lost track of the nicknames. If they're not listed, Comben in particular could be anything - if he can just string 3 games together without getting injured. I still have faith in Will Philips - glandular fever can really take a toll...

    Coach Alastair Clarkson III - new NMFC senior coach until at least end 2027 - NMFC board approved AC to start 1/11 amid ongoing HFC racism investigation

    GR, it's been a great day for the Roos (and the members and supporters) and for all the people who helped keep the Roos at Arden Street and out of the clutches of the AFL. Regardless of what happens from here, there will always be Clarko (not some newbie, or some recycled Ross Lyon-type)...

    Coach Alastair Clarkson III - new NMFC senior coach until at least end 2027 - NMFC board approved AC to start 1/11 amid ongoing HFC racism investigation

    Horace I want to contribute to your excellent thread comparing Clarko's appointment with the Barassi appointment (but I can't remember how to navigate around the Board). When I find it I will add my recollections. All I can say that's relevant to this thread is that I expect Clarko to dial up...

    Wow, what a great day! Even brought me out of 'retirement' and back onto the North Board (the only Board, pretty much). Fantastic letter to members from Sonja too. All I can say to our Pres is "thank you, thank you thank you!"

    Certified Legendary Thread Giantroo - A KING amongst Men (Help Crowdfund a new Mac for GR!)

    Was listening to SEN this morning when a fantastic story came on about how a North fan had helped Jy get off that trumped up charge and "show of strength" by the MRO. Then the interview where the fan described how he was on the steps at Dallas Brooks Hall all those years ago to Keep North...

    Random NON FOOTY thoughts not worthy of a thread: Edition II

    I was at the Corner last night to see Ana Popovic and there it was on the wall outside when I was taking in some "fresh air". Black Mountain playing at the Corner in early October. Doing a few gigs down the east coast and then onto Perth. RobZombie, this heads up is meant for you too. :)

    Random NON FOOTY thoughts not worthy of a thread: Edition II

    I'm glad Rupert Holmes has been delisted - I'd never heard of him. Did you consider Phil Collins, the solo artist? You could replace Steely Dan with Phil - they were never a "pop" group. But hey, it's your list and a bloody good one too. see see hit the nail on the head earlier when he used...

    Random NON FOOTY thoughts not worthy of a thread: Edition II

    Iirc, I did my first "ignore" ever, just this week. A campaigner in the JonBenet Ramsay crimes thread. Got under my skin with some incredibly inane posts (and didn't barrack for North). So, goodbye!

    List Mgmt. 2016 Trade & Free Agency Discussion Thread [v. 1.0]

    Didn't Brad say on Talking Footy that he expected Wellsy to let him know his decision once trade week opened? He said trade week opened after the grand final.
